[KALETA]

3 for Elder is nuts. Looked like a good clean hit that the kid didn't absorb well. If he doesn't score 4 the other night is it the same?

 

Kaleta, eh, hard to tell from the one angle I saw, but if he threw a deliberate elbow to the head he's an idiot and I'd like to change my vote.

[Is Darcy a Weasel?]

How do you all feel about the job Darcy is doing ? Other than firing the coach has he done anything that appears to have improved the team ? Roster moves ? Is he burning up the phone lines trying to bring in help ? Is he simply waiting for the market to set itself as he likes to say ? Does anyone know of any scouts checking out the team recently ? Is Darcy even alive ? Has anyone seen him ? Maybe we should send someone over to check on him. I jest I jest but seriously.

Well he was at the Amerks game tonight. My friend spoke to him in the hallway of the suite level and said it was a pleasant exchange regarding Enroth's game last night.

 

There also appeared to be lot of scouts in attendance (if dudes in suits with notepads watching the game alone from upper rows = scouts).

 

[Kassian to Vancouver for Hodgson]

I don't see how. Kassian had top 6 potential. Foligno has bottom six potential....hopefully 3rd line. That said, I am letting this trade settle with me until this evening

 

Agreed with expectations/raw talent but Foligno is bringing the physical game consistently and putting up points - 14g 20a in 54 games. In October/November he looked like a bust (early I know). Lately he's leading the team.

[Kassian to Vancouver for Hodgson]

With Kassian gone....Does Foligno get the call up from the Amerks to add some size to the roster?

Yes. I think Foligno's play over the past 2 months made this deal possible.
