Weave

Of the young guns, I think he has the lowest ceiling. Wouldn’t be surprised if Brian Holzinger is his comparable when he is mid career. And that’s not damning criticism. They can’t all be stars.

I’m not sure we’ll see Girgs at center again unless it is as an injury fill in.

Did I hear Patrick Sharp?

You and I may be the only two here that see a young, talented player being moved out. I’m not predicting Mitts, but I think he’s a compelling player to be moved candidate. Absolutely noone in here is working a vendetta, or saying he’s a bust or anything. Just stating opinion that he’s a candidate for a bonafide hockey trade.

The hell happened? I need deets..

He’ll get the less flashy wingers and won’t get 2nd lone center points, but his continued development will be obvious.

5 pages because I stated in another thread that Ott, NJ, and Det will be harder to beat this season. WTF.

Should we have traded Perreault before the team collapsed and we drafted Turgeon? Hell no. Some players just need to be lifers.

I’m not trying to compare now to then. Every era has its challenges. All I am saying is, this isn’t a new road. There is a fair amount of irrational exuberance on display. Let’s see how this season progresses and how the newest kids continue to develop.

Yeah lots of too early excitement. The great Scotty Bowman had a similar looking draft. He had several players hit, but we know that never quite ended the way we all dreamed. Still hovering around cautious optimism.

Fans have no loyalty and then wonder why the players have no loyalty. Crosby should retire a Penguin.

Carey. Price.

And Buffalo a clearer path to drafting at 16+.

I’m with you. He was a solid meh on a horrible team. Seemed more likely shiny new toy syndrome than performance related.

That is bold. Man, I hope so.

Really? 2-3 years has been the mantra now for as long as I can remember.

It’s been the same question for a decade….

John Daly sinking a 90’ eagle putt at The Open while wearing Hooters pants and a Santa beard is the video I didn’t know I needed today.

Wait…. What? How did I overlook biodork?

Got my tix to Rage last night! I am pumped. Expecting an amazing show.

No, you’re wrong!

The entire damned discussion has been semantics and pedantics.

Wow. What is Marc Methot’s history with Vegas?

The unease with both of them when the subject turned to signing with Buffalo was obvious. I thought Johnson even had a very noticeable change in his voice. His voice and body language tells me he’s simply not going to play here. After seeing these I don’t know how anyone could be optimistic about them signing with Buffalo. Last ditch recruitment pitch fail.

Hey-Zuess, how does the Vegas GM still have a job?
