He was a Hobey Baker finalist. For you, or me, or anyone to say that it's absolute, is ridiculous. Give him a shot and let's see how it plays out. I am not saying no......in as much as Green is saying no....... Until he does, well, I am guessing I am probably righter? When he gets put there I am wrong..... Motte does not in any way resemble Smyl and hey, I respect the guy...you are right, he was a finalist But so was Gaudette, and look at the people that think he is having trouble Lets be realistic here Edited January 10, 2021 by janisahockeynut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow that's just sad after all the media hype on JB having followed him since 2016.... I know it was such a small sample size but he did show up playing for the Panthers/Senators. All I am saying is, that until Green and Benning, sit Eriksson, who I don't like....but until they do, or Hawryluk surpasses him........ Well, I guess you know who is right.........and I hope you are right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His empty netters put Loui to shame, correct me if I’m wrong but his empty netters account for almost half his total goal production? LEGEND! The reason he has those goals is that Green puts him on the ice at that time..... Your job Jim, if you accept it, is to ask ........ Why, does Green keep putting Pearson out in those times?

Unfortunately im not sure which line he would permently would fit in too tho. Baer and Gaud did have chemistry last season camp. 3rd line scoring could help. Baer also could be used too help rest any of the top 6 winger spots in this compacted season. Go Team Blue Go Team White Go Seahawks Baer seems to be a great guy, always liked his attitude.. his track record, however, doesn't scream 'fine regular season player'.. career high 35 points and multiple injuries including concussion issues.. it might be in his best interest to retire after this contract.. Maybe he'd suit the taxi best this year, maybe that's what you were implying? and as you pointed out - where would he slot in? but in the long run anyway, I think the team has moved past him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RWMc1 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Motte's a great 4th liner and will eventually get a look higher up the lineup. The difference between mid level teams and top tier teams is a combination of high end skill and depth. We have high end players already, so it makes no sense to give away depth just to play fan favourites in better positions. Because of the schedule, we will get injuries due to the animosity created. Depth is even more important right now. Next season is a long way off, so arguing about potential off season moves is moot at best. Green looks at all aspects of a player's game and will start the lineup that he feels will give us the best chance to win. Many will disagree. Especially with taxi squad decisions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I concur but if you look on LW we are deep there. Miller, Pearson, Roussel, Motte. As I said, Green will ice the lineup that he feels will give us the best chance to win. If Motte is moved up, I have no issue with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuxfanabroad Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 (edited) The quality of the roster is shaping into a group of 23 perennial incumbents. That is, there will be 23 of such quality, youth & paid appropriately, that they'll be difficult to dislodge. That's not definite(on all prospects' trajectory)..but I'd say at least even$ that it's trending this way. Then a franchise enters an elite tier that only a few(perhaps TBay, CAR & COL, say) are at. With enough quality/quantity to perhaps stock 1.5 - 2 competitive NHL teams. So you've got even more youth coming. What deals will follow, recycling some excess into precise targets, and/or extra future picks? One aspect stands out for me here. Virtually all 'elite-tier' I mentioned, have been constructed though either/both of extra accumulated picks, or lotto pick success. JB (& Brackett, in fairness) seem to have spun this magic with neither! Edited January 10, 2021 by Nuxfanabroad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
