If ROR had a semblance of a touch around the net this might have been a game. This is essentially the Edmonton Sabres folks.

Yeah maybe the scouting on him wasn't all that bad but damn does he make some boneheaded moves.

Yeah thats my intuition about Dahlin. Vans been stallin for Dahlin too.

My take is that there was likely hours upon hours of video and scouting reports and info from colleagues available that JBot could have and in all likelihood did go to for the word on this guy. It was out there. Hell we knew it from what amateurs were saying on the Habs board. And for some reason he disregarded the professional info he was given and signed this guy. You've got to swing for the fences sometimes but do it based on sound advise. Methinks at that point he must have been desperate to make a move.

Yes thats a good take. Pretty much how it played out. Only thing I'll add is we as fans have had no input so can't blame us whether we agreed with starting over or not.

Look at the Canucks. They've lost something like 18 out of their last 21 and they aren't officially tanking. They didn't have a big selloff. They didn't burn it to the ground. They actually went into the season thinking they could compete. They've had some injuries but we lead them in that catagory. They'z just plain bad. And the rookie coach is still coachin. But their talk radio hosts and fans are calling it a tank. Its not a tank and neither is ours. At least this year. This for us is just remnants of the tank. We'z just plain bad.

Nylander has streaky player written all over him. That being said he is young but when people in the know question his work ethic it makes you wonder.

That was Lehner-esque by Linus.

Sam went off adjusting his manhood so thats it then. Sacked him.

Pekke has been coming up big.

Why is that not a penalty ? On Bailey.

Nice. I see what you did there. I'm likin the look of Eichel. Looks like he hasn't missed a beat.

Eichels pass to Guhle. Robert that is.

Too late. The old boys club feasts on newbies like JBot.

Everytime I log on this thread title throws me off.

There have been a few over the years. Dom comes to mind. The return for him sucked as well. Ray Sheppard had potential when we gave him away but he prolly couldn't have been considered a can't miss at that point.

I got nothing. At least we have a player with an Irish sounding name for Saint Paddys day !

He's still playing for that next contract. Once he's paid watch him tail off like he did here the last 20-25 games. Still think the return will never amount to what we let go.

This is where I'm at.

Must win. I don't like the look of last place. I don't like our odds of winning the draft lottery in last place even more, so must win.

I like this post. Its also where I'm at with this team. Hopefully JBots rolls up his sleeves and gets to work.

Agreed on Sam.

Wishing Kyle all the best and a speedy recovery. This setback really sucks but all year for the most part I've been dreading this happening and kind of knowing it was bound to happen at some point. It is the nature of the beast.

Disfunction clearly starts at the top. The rest of it we were already aware of. They are what they are. I hope JBot is capable.
