Kevin Bieksa you are really...

i honestly think it does matter the KB produces. I think he's starting to settle his defensive game down, after a long time of being suspect in his defensive coverage in his early years. I also think though, that his contributions offensively, need to stay up there for his true value to the team to shine through. The guy is an offensive dman and needs to pick that part of his game up. He's trying and getting his chances so I'm not too worried. It's a matter of time. I just want to see those oppurtunities capitalised on, without any regression in his defensive play. If we get both sides of that coin out of him....well...i'll be a happy camper.

And MG....will have some hard choices to face come Jan or Feb, or whenever Mr. Fragile: Handle With Care gets back.

I agree with you he needs to produce and it'll happen because the chances are there, he's moving the puck a lot faster is what makes me the happiest. Last year, he would just coast with the puck thinking he was Bobby Orr and could jump gears in a stride and it would cost him all the time. All that's left for him to make me real happy is to be in the middle of some line brawl like in Chicago and the real Juice come out. Oh how sweet he is when he's mad.

I would imagine the man that got bit by the only venomous snake in all of Scandinavia will have a set back along the way. He is made of glass after all.

Those who live in glass ships shouldn't throw houses.

Hmm I wonder if Salo lives in a glass house and owns a glass ship. :D

MG is certainly going to have to make a decision in regards to Salo when the time comes.

Comparing Salos injuries to Bieksas is a no go.

Salos injuries are of the "wear and tear" variety whereas Bieksas are of the "freak" variety.

Salos durability can be questioned. Bieksas not so much.

Well a bunch of Salo's injuries are of the freak variety. Snakes, ball hockey, testicles, etc.

Yes, maybe someone can explain how things like a snake bite or a shot to the sack are considered wear and tear injuries????? :blink:

I suppose he was never told to stop playing with his snake. And every guy knows, at all times, you gotta watch your back and your sack.

LOL

It's not that other guys don't make mistakes. Just not as glaring and not as often.

This is why the Bieksa thread was born.

Great tonight :), That Penalty you took in OT was Questionable, but no hate, you gotta give the new guys credit

Hamhuis, Ballard, Malhotra wow you gotta take them out to Roxys for bailing you out .

That's why this thread was born.

Blind hate is why it keeps going. And you're among the most willfully blind, ain't ya? ;)
