I mean, if scouts in the NHL by now do not know what Hunwick brings... they probably aren't good at their jobs. This is totally a move to put 2 veterans together because Housley equates veteran with good/stable. It is just dumb and we should probably sharpen our snow shovels and break out the torches... but that's because a blizzard is coming.

If they are not going to play him he should be in Rochester. Some of JBot's and Housley's decisions are worrisome. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are plenty of people around here that think that, don't kid yourself I think it's just that we've hit a skid, and Housley is playing it, as he feels, as safe as possible right now. This game is huge for us, we need to come out of the gates with a win 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudacek Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 Scandella has a pretty key role in a good PK. Is That what is keeping him in the lineup? If I’m Botterill, I move him out at the deadline. Despite his struggles this year, I think he’s still regarded as an NHL second-pairing defenceman with term. Frees up the logjam and likely maximizes the return on a guy who is not likely to be here to start 2020. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
