Zero offense except he scored on terrible backhanders (iirc all 4 of his career goals are on weak backhanders). He has no upside from 4th liner but of the 3 players moved is the only one who you can comfortably play in the NHL as of today If he can help the PK than that's great. Just what we need out if this addition. Plays defence and kills penalties?! Is he an upgrade on DiGuiseppe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting TH on PTO had nothing to do with him being a bum as was suggested. I kind of thought that. Cheers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just seems we are heading in that direction again. Did you see the penalty kill in the preseason? What was it 10 goals against in 7 games? Even a great 4th line is never going to makeup the offense if your PK is that bad. Top 9 should have offensive players, and once Motte/Sutter get back they can both score the odd goal.

48MPHSlapShot Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 At the end of the day the team still needs a really good RHD that can kill penalties and just generally defend really well. If we somehow land that player our pairings should be pretty balanced. We can always play someone on their off side for the PK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ilduce39 Posted October 10, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 10, 2021 If Lammikko kills penalties well that’s exactly what the doctor ordered after the preseason… (although that’s kind of what I wanted Juolevi for as well.) Fans love to swing for the fences on every move looking for home runs but sometimes you just need to lay down a bunt and advance the runner. (Or find a guy who you can trust killing penalties on the eve of the regular season - no small task.) 1 9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember when Juolevi was scratched after he scored his first NHL game? Yep. That's Green for you. If you succeed in a role that he designed to make you fail in, you'll be thrown out of the roster. I thoroughly dislike this guy. Funny enough Scottie Upshall and Shane O’Brien rave about Green and how good a coach he is on Missin Curfew podcast. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bittersweet but I feel a bit of refreshment because we can finally turn the chapter. Happy Thanksgiving!

Think Green said it was a salary cap issue that they couldn't get him back off the Taxi squad, pretty sure he said that after they traded Jordie Benn. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
