K-9

No doubt Reid can scheme like nobody else, but KC’s track record with drafted WRs is a mixed bag at best. The only elite attribute Worthy possesses is speed and that certainly has to be respected, but he is not quick off the line of scrimmage, isn’t a good route runner, doesn’t have great hands, and his frame certainly leaves a lot to be desired and he’s gonna have issues with getting off press coverage as a result. He’s got boom or bust written all over him. And KC was gonna draft him at 32, anyway. Glad we got a third round pick to possibly use as a chip to acquire another pick in the 2nd tonight.

He’s definitely not Tyreek, but that’s not saying he wont be good necessarily. Imo, he has boom or bust written all over him.

This is the point the whining little children on WGR keep missing. KC was gonna get Worthy, anyway. It sucks the trade was with KC, but in the final analysis, it really doesn’t matter.

If Beane was telling the truth when he said he didn’t have first round grades on 28 players (for what it’s worth, Joe Schoen said he only had 11 players with 1st round grades), then he is gonna find very good value on day 2. And I have a hunch he’s gonna acquire a third 2nd round pick as well. Who was the draft pundit who predicted we would trade down for Carolina’s pick at 33 and then select McConkey? Hmm. Worthy has boom or bust written all over him imo, and I’m glad we didn’t select him, but it sucks we made that deal with KC.

I wouldn’t draft Malik Nabers just because of the bling he’s wearing around his neck.

Might want to review all the game videos because Benson won far more puck battles than he lost this season. He knows how to leverage his stature against bigger opponents and he did that routinely along the boards, the few times he was knocked on his butt notwithstanding.

They need to sign Lindgren asap because the thought of not being able to see his mom in the stands is a sad one.

Ruff’s biggest impact will be made on the practice ice. The old saying says you play like you practice and my add on to that is you practice like you’re coached. Lindy will make quick work of cutting the wheat from the chaff.

Agree entirely. Having watched nearly every Amerks game this season and being thoroughly impressed with Kulich and Rosen much if the time, it is still painfully obvious they just aren’t ready for the show at this time.

He’s certainly not bad, but I just don’t feel he ever became that #1 guy on the #1 pair.

Good point. The onus was on Myers to become that #1 defender by merit and he simply wasn’t good enough.

Never too late for The Koncept of Kassian.

Tuch is the only one I know of for sure that lives here year round.

Brown nosers, all.

Good point. There’s a reason Gallant was fired after successful seasons and why he isn’t a HC in the league at the moment.

In coaching, it’s often a question of benefits vs. drawbacks. Does the benefit of the occasional PP goal outweigh the drawbacks of the rest of his game on a game to game basis. It’s easy for me to understand why Granato and Co. made the decision to scratch him from the lineup so often.

It occurs to me that today is Earth Day. I mean what better day is there to recycle?

Nah, they’re gonna bring Darcy back.

Him, too. But I think Skinner might have a type of moxie that Lindy appreciates.

He’s the only VO I know. And it was a totally tongue in cheek comment, btw. VO strikes me as Lindy’s least favorite type of player.

God wouldn’t have been a good choice, anyway. He can’t seem to hold anyone accountable.😂

Nah, I’m pretty sure it’s accountability.

What a stupid penalty by McCabe and the Bruins wasted no time cashing in the PP chip. And as I type this, Domi evens it ip at 1 apiece.

We could have done far, far worse. Lindy’s middle name is accountability, the club med training camp and practices are over, and the boys better lace ‘em up tight. Any truth to the rumor Ruff is insisting on making a strong push to get VO back in the fold?
