So?

I only have a vote in for Johnson because I like him as a veteran mentor. With Raanta out I'm looking at Ward or trading for a veteran goalie who is maybe on his way out of the league. How about this one? Trade for Ryan Miller. Let him come back and retire a Sabre. His numbers are still pretty good and he's cheap.

:lol:

Good enough for me :lol: I think Ullmark, at worst, is Marty Biron redux. I'm okay with that.

The vibe I have gotten from talking to someone who would know is that the players like Lehner, he's a nice guy who tries hard, but he's a headcase and you kinda have to walk on egg shells around him so that he doesn't lose focus. As soon as he gets rattled he loses it. That's probably just who he is and unfortunately it is what is holding him back from being a truly great goalie. His mental game is poor. He's not a guy who thrives on pressure. Ullmark, on the other hand, seems like the kind of guy who is unfazed by everything. He exudes positive vibes. He wont mope when he lets in a bad goal, and he wont make his teammates feel bad when they hang him out to dry. You'll probably never see a wtf wave from Ullmark. I hope he keeps the Minions mask. That's his entire life attitude encapsulated in an object.

:lol: You son of a bitch. How did I never realize that?

Jesus man. Ullmark went to his second AHL All Star game this year and posted a career high save percentage. He also looks nothing like Lehner and will undoubtedly look shaky in the NHL until the settles in like every goalie ever. You've lost the plot.

You shut your mouth

This Washington Nashville game tonight has been very good. So much talent on both squads.

A mop in a bucket could have done that :p

As far as I can tell there was literally no communication of any kind going on anywhere in the org under Murray.

What is the deal with referees? Jesus.

No, you're right.

OSU for sure.

Yes

I also have Carter Hutton on my do not want list. He's bad, but no one here is familiar enough with him to know that I guess.

The amount of votes I am receiving is somewhat unsettling.

Lehner has no value. No one will qualify him. They'll sign him as a UFA and not a moment sooner.

Are you going to get their GM drunk first?

I was thinking this as well :lol: Okay, hear me out on this: trade for Lundqvist. He's gotta retire soon anyway, right? Who better to mentor Ullmark for a few years.

Good stuff from Botterill there.

I'll take your analysis on the advanced metrics. I just know we didn't score as much as we wanted to, and we got scored on way more. I figured the last one would happen. I didn't assume the first.

I dunno, I don't think we're valuing O'Reilly high enough. He's a proven veteran. If any team is trading for him, it's because they want a vet over a kid. I think it works.

Right. How quickly people forget.

San Jose's 1st?
