stanleysteamersmyl Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Can't wait to see Schmidt blasting the puck from the blueline, breakaway passes to the forwards and joining the rush. He is going to get a lot of apples playing with Petty and Hughes. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post McBackup Posted October 15, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 15, 2020 Arguing over which city is better is incredibly dumb. It's like someone who prefers blondes arguing with someone who prefers brunettes which is better.

Yeah I don't see it either for a cpl of reasons, first, I think there's no chance of Hughes being paired without someone at least 6'4, you know what I mean and why, second, that gives us potential for a legit top 2 pairings which we need badly if we ever want another but longer trip to the big dance so we don't have to depend on a goalie standing on his head every game and be peppered for 40+ SOG, that's ridiculous. Think that's come to an end but see what happens right? However under some circumstances I can see it happening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was worse polluted than Vancouver by FAR!! And it makes it dirty looking and you should see steel town just down the road from TO.. even worse... But that's what I mean by dirty besides the litter everywhere that's worse.. nothing like the California highways in some places but that's what I meant.. And I know Vancouver has its own just not as bad.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some just want to be negative, hate on Benning & and argue, just to argue. So why are so many here arguing with people who at best can be called clueless? Just ignore the trolls. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I would definitely be inclined to play Schmidt and Hughes on different pairings, because that would mean we have one or the other of these two superb puck movers on the ice for about 45 minutes per game. And if OJ comes through the way I am expecting him to, we will even have some decent skill on the third pairing. I am really looking forward to that. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeneedLumme Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 (edited) I see some people describing Schmidt as a second pairing Dman. The way I see it, with 31 teams in the NHL, there are 62 top pairing Dmen spots. In the last 3 years, in the regular seasons Schmidt's points, points per game, and time-on-ice per game have ranged from 34th to 59th in the league among Dmen, with an average ranking of 48th in those metrics. And he gets more icetime and has similar productivity in the playoffs. There is no doubt that he is a top-pairing Dman, and anyone describing him as any less than that is being deliberately disingenuous. What an absolute steal!

gerry35 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Pretty amazing deal "Jet black Jim" as someone else on here called him made taking advantage of Las Vegas's mistake in gutting their team a bit to bring in Pietrangelo. The defence needed to be overhauled a bit so this is a good start. Lot's of young guys are going to be pushing for the remaining spots which is the whole reason you draft them anyway. At least 95% approval on here and of course the infamous Lunatic fringe as Brian Burke calls them making a lot of noise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
