Which is more than I can say for Hunt, who isn't good enough to play for us even if injuries hit. He's another Weber/Larsen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe OJ can boost a bit of his trade value then we move him if possible and then recall the Bone?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best payback would be to fire Green and replace him with a coach who doesn't insist on playing AHL trash instead of our promising players who look ready. Let Shaw clean house so we have qualified assistant coaches while we're at it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not feeling good about having both Hunt and Schenn on active roster... We are getting screwed by Hamonic who refused to opt out... At least offer an ETA so we don't have to be hung out to dry like this... JB needs to either find a defent RHD in waivers or trade market ASAP!!

We shouldn't be trading OJ at all; the problem is Green and the incompetent clown he has chosen to run his defense. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RakuRaku Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 I think OJ can still do a decent job given a bit more trust and patience... Wish he was right handed!!! So... Now what with Hamonic?? He has intention to play this season but is leaving all of us guessing when he's ready... So we shift his cap hit on LTIR or some sort of personal leave?

Was a constant PK option in San Jose, takes draws (albeit not great) but very responsible defensively. I wonder if he could help lessen the blow of not having Brandon Sutter for the foreseeable future. He played 3C (16 minutes average toi) on a bad San Jose team last year. I don't think he'd be out of place as a 4C on a decent team. Right handed, defensive, centre? I'd take him.

I think our team needs a different coach to reach our full potential for sure tho! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need more size on the fourth line. No more 6’ and under players. We need some big boys for the bottom 6. Which is why I hope Bailey makes the cut. Losing Gadjovich made us a much smaller team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No point when Green will bench anyone who takes a penalty because the ref didn't appreciate him finishing a check. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that’s why Lockwood is gone. With Motte out Lockwood would have been the perfect fill in for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s fast and works hard but A small player could play the same way 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the fastest bottom 6 skater we have left. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don’t know if he’s the guy they keep around 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
