Nedeljkovic is week-to-week. He's going on LTIR because he'd be able to be back by the end of the month because the Penguins will play 10 games in the first three weeks. LTIR requires missing at least either 10 games or 24 days.
You mean Pickering? Id take another though, to push Graves AND Grelzyk out.
And also an opportunity to raise his value. 2nd round pick RD that is already at least sniffing the NHL will raise some eyebrows.
The worst part is Sullivan is the exact same as Torts but he isn't outwardly a wanker about it so he gets away with it and no one seems to question his shitty usage for players.This is my fear…McG isn’t as good an offensive,player as Michkov but this is the philosophy I hate from coaches…let him find his offensive game and play him in the top six…not interested in having him focus on defense on a third line Sullivan deploys as primarily a defensive line…we have so little scoring as it is
'I'm not interested in turning him into a checker': John Tortorella's plan for Flyers rookie Matvei Michkov
"I have no doubt that there's going to be some fireworks," GM Danny Briere said. But the pairing must work for Philly to get back to the playoffs.www.espn.com
A 47yr old Mark Eaton could push Graves out of the f***ing line up.
I thought Grzelcyk would be ok but jeez. I have been super underwhelmed by his showing in the preseason games.
I think Gryz will be a roller coaster for us. Going to be plays he makes that will impress us and then also drive us insane. I do worry about a Gryz letang pairing. They will have some games that look brutal
It'll be similar to another Beantown reject Sullivan wanted - Matt No-Funwick.
He always struck me as deadline trade bait. He's going to be some contender's #5 for a 3rd rounder.
I don't understand why they gave him that contract in the first place.
Considering Dubas has since overhauled the scouting department and structure on both the pro and amateur side, odds are he's not happy he gave Graves that contract either.
Lou's been senile since he drove Niedermeyer outta town.
Hey, if he somehow rectifies that mistake, hat's off to him. But I don't think that's going to be happening anytime soon, if ever.
An underrated aspect. Getting his name out there could open opportunities for him.
He's waiting to draft Cam Janssen's sonLou's been senile since he drove Niedermeyer outta town.
Being paired with Ryan Graves could also get doors slammed and padlocked.
Unfortunately father time is undefeated. Our best players are entering their late 30's. There will be a drop off. And while the supporting cast in the bottom six is incrementally better. The top six is worse than the start of last year. Also no injuries to either Sid and Geno each of the last two seasons. That's not likely to continue this year. Jarry has shown he can't be trusted. The coach and the on ice product are stale. Our team speed is pedestrian at best. Sure. there'll be flashes of brilliance, but it won't be sustainable.
The only one that believes is MS. He will cut McGroarty and Brunnike of course so we can't even enjoy watching the upcoming season
