  1. Is Zad suspended? I thought he was just benched.

    Nolan has been pretty consistent: do things his way and you'll play, don't and you won't.

     

    I've been listening to Vancouver sports radio this morning, and it's been pretty entertaining listening to them talk about our team.

    I can tell you this: they have no doubt Buffalo is going to win the Shart.

  2. So, I haven't seen tonight's line-up card yet, but apparently it's something like this:

     

    5 underachieving veterans (Moulson, Gionta, Stewart, Hodgson, Foligno)

    5 unproven youngsters (Ristolainen, Zadorov, Pysyk, Deslauriers, Larsson)

    9 AHLers/fringe NHLers (Ellis, Strachan, Benoit, Meszaros, Flynn, MItchell, Dalpe, Varone, Lindback)

    Plus Bogosian and Neuvirth

     

    If there ever was a team built for the Shart...

     

    Put Lindback in goal and  :worthy:

  3. I still don't get it... :unsure:

    You ever watch rugby? They carry the ball forward until stopped by contact, then try to flip it to a guy coming from behind.

    That's what it used be like.

     

    Then they put in the blue lines and said you can pass it forward now but not over the opposition blueline into the offensive zone.

  4. Rover was often the best skater and stick handler. When I hear it described, I always think about Phil Housley.

     

    The defencemen we called point and cover point. Did that mean they had different roles and one guy hung back all the time?

  5. I've always been curious to see what a game would be like with today's NHL players playing the rules from 100 years ago: a rover, goalies can't drop to their knees, no forward pass...

     

    More stick handling, more hits, rugby on ice.

  6. The tank getting attention on Vancouver sports radio.

    TSN afternoon guys were having a little fun, but they guaranteed Neuvirth trade. Said a free agent goalie with no cap hit playing that well should interest any playoff team and said there is is no way Murray will let him ruin the tank.

     

    Also lots of debate about whether or not Markstrom starts against us tomorrow. One side says they are desperate for wins, Buffalo should be a certain win, why risk it with the back-up? The other side says what easier team to give him some time against?

  7. Larsson should get the better line mates and Hodgson the power play time.

    But you know it will be be Flynn and Mitchell.

     

    If we deal Stewart and Mitchell, maybe Girgorenko will get a chance to finish out the season.

    Pysyk should get Gorges' spot for the duration.

     

    It's not like the Amerks are going anywhere this year.
