[NotWendell]

Zach Aston-Reese also fills the critical need of having a player who sounds like they'd be the murder victim in an Agatha Christie novel. Likely because he was snogging the maid.

Good move.

So Schwarzenegger will be playing him in the movie?

 

[Double-Shift Lasse]

We need this versatility.

Not since the glory days of Jean-Luc Grand-Pierre himself have we had such a beautifully hyphenated last name. Though JLGP is really more of a mid-level criminal in a Jean-Patrick Manchette crime story.

Audy?

 

[KallioWeHardlyKnewYe]

Audy?

He rejected the hyphen.

 

[koteka]

I like the ZA-R signing because he has actually played in a bunch of playoff games and might have some good stories for the young guys.

As for hyphenated names, we still have TF-W and OJB-H in the system, but I prefer the non-hyphenated LDBB.

 

[Xoggz22]

Hyphenated last names are independent of and distinct from middle names. My middle name is Caroline, not Valentine. (And OMFG the number of people who screw that up, I can't even...)

Yes, I was attempting to make a correlation to Brian Austin Green more for the similar ring. Wasn't going for the hyphen approach.

Noted, I just get way too much grief from this any time anyone is trying to use any sort of automated system, thanks to the idiocy of other programmers, and so I have a tendency to jump at anything that even distantly resembles a "teachable moment" w/r/t this stuff.

Papa once joked they did it so that my sibs and I would "have to learn a sizeable portion of the alphabet simply to spell [our] own names", but it's also taught me quite a lot about robust systems design and the evils of premature optimization as well...

Just saw Texier is playing in the Blues top 6 at the moment. Would sure be nice right now to have a guy like him that you can slot anywhere and he’s relatively effective. Gonna miss Tex.

We really didn't need to jettison Texier and Nylander.

That feels like Waddell rushing to put his stamp on the team and then downgrading it in the process.

Especially now. Nylander I was fine with. The Tex move stung then, it stings even more now with a lack of NHL quality forward depth.

 

[Aaaarrgghh]

Kent Johnson really needs to be freed of Sillinger and put in the top 6. Ideally, I'd shuffle him, Chinakhov/Marchenko and van Riemsdyk around.

 

[koteka]

I don’t think Tex wanted to stay here. I don’t blame Waddell for moving him. My guess is his agent quietly said either trade him or he is going back to the Swiss league.

 

[ColumbusTrill]

Porty said on Front and Nationwide that the expectation is that Boone and Voronkov are both out til the spring

Wow. That’s f***ing rough.

 

[Jovavic]

I'm guessing Voronkov's is the shoulder?

 

[ColumbusTrill]

I'm guessing Voronkov's is the shoulder?

I can’t remember where I saw it but I’m pretty sure it was said he wouldn’t need surgery. Not sure what the injury is obviously

 

[S1N4TR4]

voronkov was in a huge sling at the buckeye game this past weekend

 

[Jovavic]

Looks like Boone had shoulder surgery and is out 5 to 6 months, Voronkov will not and might be back by the end of November

 

[rielledup]

Why are they playing Fantilli on the 2nd pp instead of the 1st? I was thinking he was going to have a big year assuming he was on the 1st pp.

 

[KJ Dangler]

Jiricek scratched again

 

[CBJx614]

Why are they playing Fantilli on the 2nd pp instead of the 1st? I was thinking he was going to have a big year assuming he was on the 1st pp.

I'm assuming they want him playing a role that's already taken on the first.

It's a long season, guys will be up and down. If he plays well enough he'll be there eventually.

 

[MoeBartoli]

Jiricek scratched again

I’m thinking he will be in the starting line-up for the first home game where the coaches have the last change and can control the match-up.

 

[Cowumbus]

I assume Malatesta would be the one in for ZAR if he’s out for a bit?

 

[stevo61]

I assume Malatesta would be the one in for ZAR if he’s out for a bit?

Gambrell?

 

[thebus88]

I assume Malatesta would be the one in for ZAR if he’s out for a bit?

I thought ZAR looked pretty good in his limited time.

I’ve become a pretty big fan of Malatesta at this point. Brings enough of everything to be an NHL player. Him and Olivier together on a line would be something.

Malatesta-Sillinger-Olivier
