What game are you watching Amigo? 

 

I think you may have a case of seeing what you want to see.  The guys been our best forechecker in the first period and made two nice passes to set up high danger chances in the slot. One of them went in. 

I know what I'm watching during intermission! Kind of disappointing though.

Highmore has set up our only two high danger chances from the slot. One of them was our goal. 

 

It's important to not see what you want to see out there. Otherwise you get a very biased view. 

Did you even read my post?

Its on the coaches that the Nucks are so ill prepared when it comes time to attack.  A couple of out manned O zone situations and all the Nucks do is skate to the f-ing boards or come to a stop at the blueline and drops the puck to the corner.  What genius came up with that great scoring play??

Yeah, let's not hold the players accountable for being, you know, professionals.

I said it before, we need to trade Petey for Eichel while we can. Get something plus Eichel since he cant play for awhile.

 

Petey is a disaster and I don't think paying him 7 million for bad play will help his psyche.

 

The biggest mistake NHL GMs have done in decades is paying these snot nosed highly skilled 21 year olds huge bucks in their 2nd contract. Not only has it totally screwed up the cap but it is paying guys who have almost no consistent history showing they deserve it.

He also skated himself out of good defensive position at least 5 times and lost his guy.

 

If our team is relying on Highmore for offense then hopefully Benning doesn’t trade our 1st rounder again this year.

I don’t mind him. I like his work ethic. It’s disappointing that Podz is scratched though regardless 

He works hard and can skate fast. I like that about him too. He just does very little with it 9 games out of 10.

 

Maybe it irritates me that Green seems to have him thinking he is a skilled guy rather than a role player. He is weak defensively and pretty bad on the pk despite the hype on here.

He made a good pass for the assist. Other than that he has skates fast and burnt up ice time. He is significantly overrated on cdc.

 

Pretty sure Podkolzin would add more than Highmore. 

Highmore and Dowling are useless AHL fodder.  Chiasson is a PP specialist who can’t score.  3 guys that offer nothing which means guys like Dickinson and Lammikko have to work that much harder on the bottom 6.  

 

Podkolzin should never be scratched for these AHL players.
