The girlfriend said to me last night she would rather Tom Wilson on Canada then Sam Bennett.Still has me thinking about it .Bennett is a tough centre though.Florida are deep, you are right thereFlorida has three.

Not great, and quite frankly, I don’t care. This is a lost season. Sell off what you can and give the kids NHL repsThey are playing Poitras, how does he look to you?
When was that?
Much more likely they win, it will be closer to Colorado win, then Capitals win, right before Christmas break. If for some reason McAvoy and Carlo not back it will be exactly like Avs game.They will probably win and convincingly, too. They lose to the worst team in the East tonight, worst team in the West not long ago- you never know what you’re going to get out this clown show.
I came away impressed with Tage Thompson.
What a release!
Well, I think we all agree, a message must be sent, but to be fair to the ST, many waited on a list for those tickets, so before that action is taken, start not buying that overpriced beer, hotdogs, any other shit food they are throwing out there. have a meal at home before you leave for the game, go out to eat before or after the game, better for the small business owners, and you will be grateful for a good meal. I also suggest stop buying that overpriced merchandise that they are putting out there, you do not need to wear that crap at those prices, to show your support for the team. Small sacrifice to make a point, just do it.It's the only language the Jacobses understand. They didn't do a f***ing thing until the ST holders quit in droves & even the regular fans stopped showing up. They got the message loud and clear: fix the team or we spend our money elsewhere.
We can thank Sweeney and his drafting between 2015-2017 for that. Should be looking minimum at Barzal and Thomas\Noris at center (taken directly after the 3 Amigos and Vaak) and Kyrou taken 6 picks after Frederic, not to mention Kyle Connor.Mimicking Florida requires the acquisition of a lot more talent. It's not the toughness of Florida they are missing, it's the upper tier 1C and scoring depth throughout the lineup.
They did save their top goalie.Made sense.
Save your top goalie for the top teams.
And Florida is actually one of the smaller teams in the league.
Its 2016 & 2017 also. Could have taken Thomas instead of a falling Vaak and Kyrou over Frederic.Problem is you can’t rebuild with Sweeney as GM. We learned that the hard way in 2015.
This is purgatory…
What occurs when you miss camp for $. Happens damn near every time. Glad his save percentage is setting a new bar for goalies. Just not the one he thought.Swayman:
16-17-4, 3.03 and .895%
f***ing Woof.
He looked good at World Jr's though .You could tell there he was going to be good.USA leaving him off 4 nations is eye poppingWhen Tage played for UCONN he was basically a power play goal scorer. He's always had that shot. But there really weren't any signs of the total package we see now. Took him 5 seasons in the league before he suddenly blossomed. Patience is a virtue.
Good luck making any sense of this team.At this point, Sweeney would trade for Elias Pettersson thinking he got the forward and Vancouver would actually send the defenseman
You categorically can't say that. There aren't 32 geniuses running NHL franchises.The takeaway from last night? SELL SELL SELL
Do not add to this team because this team is not worthy of being added to. Sell as much as you can and start over. It's time.
16 million for Swayman, and Lindholm, not saying DeBrusk should have been signed, but a replacement should have been. I said at the time Swayman was signed; you can be the greatest goaltender in the world, but if there is no one in front of you it does not matter.Swayman contract should be the final nail in Sweeney's coffin
Hey! You almost hurt my feeling!!!!!!!Some time in our careers you will run into that one guy at work who everyone knows is lazy and cuts corners. You can never get ahold of them when you need something, they are the first one gone from their desk toward the end of the day. Their work is always bare bones, but somehow they never quite do enough to get fired. So they are there for years in that limbo of never achieving and never outright failing. They never have to worry about big projects or extra work because no one would dare put him on any team for something important or speedy.
I feel like I have been watching that sitcom this season.
People's takes on Coyle are so far off. I don't get it.Coyle is cooked and is now a decent to good 4th line player on a PO team.
That's a huge problem at 5.25M. Massive regression and he isn't coming back.
like he belongs in Providence, they are doing this kid more harm than good.They are playing Poitras, how does he look to you?
We're talking about two different things here though. You're talking about a hockey trade that helps your team now and into the future. I'm talking about adding a rental at the deadline, which would be a huge mistake. The deals you reference, 2 were off season moves, and only the Coyle deal was in season and close to the deadline. But even then, that was more the organization giving up on at the time, a high rated prospect than having to get Coyle.You categorically can't say that. There aren't 32 geniuses running NHL franchises.
Of course that applies to Sweeney, but if a Coyle for Donato, Taylor Hall or Zacha for Haula type deal appears you have to do it.
I know what you're saying but no can do.
-ZadorovZadorov, Elias Lindholm and Swayman signings have condemned this team to playoff bubble purgatory for the next decade.
Add to that the fact that we have zero prospects coming up through the system.
This is gonna be miserable.
Well he's fourth best goalie they can play right now. He's laughable. Only saves easy glove shots or shots that comes to straight to logo. Forget buying Lindholm's contract out. This guy needs to go. Rather take Patrick Lalime back than watch this guy letting straight non-masked shots go in all the time.Swayman:
16-17-4, 3.03 and .895%
f***ing Woof.
I'd love to see that but they're running out of time. Too many teams with games in handHampus was just settling in before injury. Coach poop. Swayman turmoil etc...Thinking they could turn this around with Hamp/Charlie.
You should try watching ringette.Seriously..how the fk can u watch this team and blame the goalie.-Zadorov
