I just mean he’s one of many top picks that fizzled in mtl; I should prob have just wrote ”kind of” specific, didn’t mean much by it.

It’s so nice to not just hear about who cares the most and tries their hardest (like since forever…), but rather their skills and team play. I admit it must help they seem like a lot of “character” players to begin with.

instead you could have KK at 4.8M for 8 years as the 4th line center...3pts in 19 games...ouch!

Got a little numbers game going on with the Blueline. Until a trade is made. I think one may happen soon as a lot of teams looking for defensemen.

How true...........that said what cold have MSL done with a kid like KK? Just saying....
That's why you never draft for need. KK is horrible

Possibly, but isn't Brindamour supposed to be an MSL type coach, one with a fantastic pro career who treats the players with respect and plays the kids? KK isn't missing time and he was on a line with two of their top scorers (Svechnikov and Necas) while managing to contribute essentially no points himself. He's not being benched: he's played a little less recently (avg. 14 mins over last 3 games) but is still on a line with Svechnikov.

I do Three bullets.
Slaf still on that line, good stuff
Looks like they're rotating the bottom 4 of 8 D now, it was always gonna he something like this once Ed and Matheson come back
What came as a bit of a surprise to management I'm sure is the YOUNGEST D looking THAT good that fast
So now you have the 3 vets + Guhle as the top 4 and the other 4, and you slot them how you see fit game by game/until injuries
Well it's not like he was NEVER going to play again lol, much as I wouldnt of minded that
But a game off for Xhekaj will do him some good
And honestly it felt like we missed Harris a bit last game too
Brindamour is considered a great coach and his players love him, but he himself mentioned once that he has complex systems that can take a year + to get used to.
Good way to let the guys know not to worry, they have a rotation going I guess… Meritocracy is important, but I’m pretty sure MSL has the room’s pulse, and everyone needs reps. Beats costco and waivers lol.
Tells me Xhekaj and Kovacevic are trending to be the 3rd pair. I can only imagine an Edmundson trade making room if no-one gets hurt I’m stuck for ideas (and I think teams need vets).

I highly doubt he said it can take a player a year+ to get used to his system. That doesn't make sense.
5-10 games? Sure.
99 games? Absolutely not.

Wow... Can't wait to see more Wideman.
Btw, what's wrong with trying Slaf with Moneyhab? To me it looks like a better fit.
Excited for slaf and just to be positive I think this will be a nice opportunity for Dadonov to contribute. Raise that trade value!

Ok, so we are swapping out size for smurfs on the back end.
It's not as if we need to worry about the opponents having any 6'7 giant scoring wingers or anything.

No X-man tonight, let's hope we don't get bullied by those mean Sabres.
Everyone needs to relax about the defensive rotation, the season is long remember 34 games in NCAA hockey. Nothing wrong with MSL plan.

About time Slaf gets moved up. I didn't understand at all why Evans got put in that spot last game when Hoffman went down.
Slaf had a treatment day instead of practice Friday, he might not have been at 100% that game. The 4th line was hammered in their own zone too, maybe Evans was considered to be playing better than Slaf in that game.

Evans hasn't played well in about 16 games this year so I don't really get that logic.
