1) Huh? Who's shitting on Kadri?

2) Mitts deserves a ton of praise for how well he's been this year.

3) Now you get sensitive about what people are saying about Av players?

Meanwhile he continues to call him Mittlejost. And I don't think he is doing it as a joke like some posters

Does Mittlejost hurt your feelings?

IIRC Wagner had a bad achilles injury a couple of years ago did he not?

Whatever mobility he had got worse after that, and for a 4th line guy whose specialty was never skating in the first place, that's akin to a death sentence. It's a testament to just how bad the Avs draft and how bad the guys currently in the AHL are that Wagner occupies a role here with five guys out.

I wonder if Lehkonen can't go against Tampa Bay do the Avs give Philips a shot with the NHL club in a top-six role or do they call up someone to play 2 minutes while Miles Wood gets the top line spot.

You know damn well it will be Wood moved up with someone like Megna getting 2 mins of ice time. While 29, 96, 8 and 7 get run into the ground.

He popped his achilles in Summer 23. It can be a rough injury and many players don't ever fully recover. It was probably the biggest derailment for Karlsson.
