  1. Have to think we find a way to win this one. Probably going away.
  2. Judging from this Granato quote they have already decided Levi is good to go next season after not being so, this Cross our fingers second time’s the charm!
  3. Especially in combination with our excess of youth
  4. Was thinking more about what the pool was lacking, last I heard Savoie and Kulich were more likely headed to wing at the pro level so our system seemed to be lacking centres Isn’t Iginla a C?
  5. How do the centres and D look around 10? I think my priority right now would be: A) Trading the pick for immediate help B) a high-ceiling centre c) a RHD
  6. Same. And after reading how utterly BS the article was, and their reasons for scratching him, it made me sick.
  7. I like this He certainly does look minuscule out there currently
  8. Good. Maybe our second best forward after Quinn, would be my rough guess The league isn’t really divided into small players on one side and big players on the other. Kucherov is non negligibly larger than Benson, and looks it. This isn’t to say Benson can’t and won’t succeed but “doesn’t bother a guy who’s bigger than him” isn’t much of a flex
  9. Say what you want about the Sabres but their prioritizing of social media above all else is officially yielding results: It’s positive in so far as the action the take to solidify it. Last year they took the “scoring is fine, run it back: trust.” If they say the GT is fine and run it back without a more proven backup, Levi might work out but it might also blow up in their faces
  10. Maybe we should start by giving “Byrum” an “a”, first It’s definitely a “blame our only good players” thing His plus minus is merely reflective of overall team differential and his difficult competition he’s been our best player and mvp by a country mile Second pairing D
  11. Have you compared the strength of competition faced between Dahlin and Power? He’s facing more difficult competition than anyone last I checked
  12. Frankly we have a better chance of falling below Ottawa than making it
  13. lol stop. If we win next game you know this place will be in “we back” mode. Today was a “this franchise is an embarrassment” day. The 180 every win / loss is legit hilarious
  14. Bryan has had a rough stretch seemingly. Dunno why we are always so premature with the “fixed the team” stuff. The Bernier thing is a thing for a reason
  15. It’s not gonna happen but it just can’t die because literally no one seems to want a spot. That we are still in it with 75 points with 7 games left is crazy but like.. philly is the WC2 right now. If they play the next 7 at the pace they’ve played the previous 10, they’ll MAYBE get 6 points. 6-0-1 for Buffalo would probably get us in. So no it probably won’t happen but the funny thing is this “stretch” we’ve needed has gotten smaller and smaller over the final games, here. In spite of barely playing well at all. All these other teams have been putrid
  16. Well, we officially can’t match last year’s points total but we might make the playoffs lol
  17. Everyone loses
  18. UPL made an INSANE save and we didn’t even let him have it
