$8m for a 23p defenseman. Pink has 37p. Lol, let's throw a parade for Gorton. This ahole franchise wouldn't accomplish anything if they weren't burying themselves in bad deals for defenseman
I think Trouba is better than Pionk. But only barely. And that’s the issue. 8 mil vs. under 4 mil. 8 years vs. 3 years.
 
We did in 2015, and the holes were exposed.

The finished product is still going to need to defend better.

It would have helped if our entire defense wasn't being held together by electrical tape by the end of that playoff run and/or being coached by an idiot.

The D for this team is really, really young. Theres a ton to like there at the moment even if we desperately need to find a top pair caliber LHD and get rid of Staal.

2 out of 10. You can do better.
 
Shesterkin, Kreider and Fox. Kreider would have had to get the hat trick to be No. 1--just 2 goals one of them being a game winner wasn't enough. Fox didn't get any points but he was really really good. The top two lines---everybody was solid.

Finally got to 5 games above .500.

He's a lot better than 'just barely' better. Even if he was only a little better, marginal upgrades cost a lot when so much of the league is so close in talent.
 
The most realpolitik option for us would be for the King L to be traded. But that's not happening and shouldn't be happening.

I also would like to say that the days of goalies playing over 60 games are over. So even how great Igor is, we can't rely on him getting 60 games. Should we be giving those relive games to Lundqvist next season (I'm fine with it), but what after that? do we actually have good goalies at Hartford to back it up?
 
Lolololol Pionk gets spoon fed pp1 time with Laine, Scheifele, Wheeler, etc.

That’s why his numbers are inflated

he still isn’t good.

Go away, Staal

I agree with you.

But as I said before, I'm apprehensive in believing that this team will stop their romance with bad players.
 
Unfortunately for whatever team that acquires Kreider in the next week and a half, him getting hot now means he’ll be due for a disappearing act sooner rather than later

A few observations:

The first 2 lines controlled the game tonight. Chytils was good in spurts, the 4th....................
Out of the 40+ shots not many were dangerous, which isn't a shot at Shesty, he was very good.

The 4th line Lemieux-Howden-McKegg were f***ing horrible tonight.
Fast handled the puck like a hand grenade tonight, Panarin could have had 5 assists.

Can we get better breasts behind Quinn please?
