Next man up.

 

At least with BB running the show we can be optimistic that whoever it is will be able to handle it better than under Green.

As long as next man up doesn't equate to Brad Hunt getting more time, that man should not be in the NHL.  Maybe Brisebois or Juulsen instead.

I am ok with Hunt getting a look tbh. Boudreau had him previously so I could see him trying him out first. But definitely wouldn’t mind a look at some Abby guys.

I'd be willing to wager Bieksa had more fights than Jovo and Bert combined. There was toughness and grit on that team. Many simple jump the whole team by the Sedins not being being scrappers. .

We had players with toughness over the years but they hardly ever used it. We had tough guys who were "nice guys" most of the time. We never had a guy with a mean streak in them since Odjick. We have sorely needed a Pronger or Byfuglien or Scott Stevens for ever on this team. Lately I think Myers hit on Duncan Keith is the closest we have come to having that, sadly.

Rat boy hurting Hamonic in a non call which was interference would have happened playing any style. Its Rat boy afterall

Was gonna point out it was called and Boeser then scored on the PP, but noticed someone already did. Effectively got use two points so... thanks Brad? Although I'm gonna predict a team that finishes one point behind us wins the draft lottery.

 

 

I don't think there's much point rushing to trade for more D-men. Let's see what we got for a bit, sort it out in the off season. Unless we get a great offer for Boeser now he's scoring again.

I'm pretty sure the game plan isn't to wait until the off season for anything.
