Just liquidated my IRA to buy shares of Malenstyn - that was an impressive interview. He's a 95th percentile most thoughtful hockey player. Gives off a confident Positive Mental Attitude (which we need).

I like the way he articulated some fundamentals that too often in hockey can get glossed over with cliches and coachspeak. We've been crummy at that side of the game for too long, so I'm hopeful that a guy like Beck, who understands and embodies those fundamentals, can transmit them to our impressionable roster.

Super impressive interview. Watched it yesterday and was blown away. Sounds like he'll play a big leadership role on this team.

Looks like the lines we all kind of expected:

L1: Peterka-Thompson-Tuch
L2: Benson-Cozens-Quinn
L3: Zucker-McLeod-Greenway
L4: Malenstyn-Lafferty-Aube-Kubel
Ex. Krebs-Kulich

Defense is interesting without Dahlin. Hard to get a good read.

Is it weird that I kinda wish they'd give Benson a shot with Thompson and Tuch, just so we could finally see a full season of Peterka - Cozens - Quinn? Benson isn't Skinner but I think he could hang with those two, and PCQ has so much potential.

If they hit back to back on Benson and Helenius, with Kulich bringing up the rear that will be a awesome step for this franchise!
