It’s starting to feel like Darcy. He seems to be over analyzing and comes up with this hard fast value and won’t budge. Couple that with a high value he’s putting on some of these prospects and here we sit banking on what would be historically great production from a couple of draft classes.
Yeh gotta be somewhere in between Darcy and TM giving away the fort... problem is too many other teams may want the fort right now.

I admit when I saw Duclair got traded today I was upset.
Immediately thought they don’t think he’s going to be 100% during the remainder of his contract this season so trade him now and get something. And it’s not a big salary that they’re shedding.
Maybe not part of the calculation/evaluation here by Florida but how could you rule that out?
Dont think it was about injury... achilles are able to fully rehab and hockey boot makes post injury very stable again its more about being smart with training

Anthony Duclair tore his around the same time last year and came back Feb.14th to play 20 games and all of the Panthers playoff run.
It really depends on how well rehab goes but it helps that he is young... Should call Duclair and find out his routine.

Seems to me that people are downplaying this injury. This is a very serious injury for an athlete. 4 to 6 months recovery to get back to "normal" activity. Playing in the NHL is not normal activity. This is probably going to take a year for him to get back to what he was, if he ever does.
Oh I disagree... but it takes a bit. problem will be strengthening quad and hammies without hurting or having a set back with achilles... they dont tend to tear again...

Goalies are such weird animals... I am hesitant unless for right term... I like idea of someone like MAF... but I have no clairvoyance... Jarry has been up and down some of it due to injuries so not sure he's the answer... but yes if it is an upgrade at right term.

Was college roommates with Okposo
Just listened to whole interview: Impressions he looks like a linebacker with those shoulders and love his emphasis on team defense... Oloffson should take some notes regardless if he is still with Sabres... Hope he can add to the D leadership what OK does for forwards..

Well said. We still need a vet goalie for sure, imo. And it may take time. But we have a lot of time before the season begins. I’m pretty content with the D we signed today. And love this team as well as the youth in the pipeline.
Adams has been great so far. Think about where this team was four years ago. Between 2012 & 2021. Today there is a lot of hope.
I'd like faster improvement but I get it long term is a youth movement with steady talent infusement every year is the way to be competitive long term... just been so long and patience is not one of my virtues... sigh I hear you nill and while I no longer carry your angst I can still vicariously smile thru your posts

journeyman 3rd liner at this point decent faceoff guy but was good in his prime

Johnson still has gas in the tank but like KO you need to manage his minutes... a great leader, tuff as nails... just cant go the whole season.

What’s Fischer’s game? Defensive forward/bastard to play against? Doesn’t look like he generates much offense.
Yes but decent shot and can chip in goals when he gets on a run...

I hit my current height at 13-14. My partner grew 2 inches at 20 after being the same for years. I wouldn't bet either way.
Yup and I grew 4 inches after graduating HS from 5'10" to 6'2" by 19

I definitely don't care about this one way or the other. What happens to that WHL team, happens.
Maybe but if you are developing relationships so you get the best insight you dont want screw up those relationships plus James Patrick you dont want to screw that up

Also wondering can an achilles be a partial tear, or is it always a full tear?
It can be... also depends on severity... I partially tore both playing volley ball in my 20s felt like something kicked my ankles... did lots of toe lifts and healed on their own... but low blood flow area so needs lots of consistent stretching easy non impact stimulation... also calcium build up can be an issue... hence important to stretch... Surgery sounds like it might have been on the bone but not sure... mine were not and only 10% tears.. did have knots in them for a long time... Skating actually good for healing process once stabilized

He's a 5th round pick, it's much more likely he never plays in the NHL. We're already comparing Levi to Hasek I don't think I'm ready to call this dude the new, new Hasek
With goalies you never know... could be... could never hear about him ever???
