time for jb to sell at the deadline now. injuries to tanev/edler has finally sealed any hopes of playoffs. not that they were gonna make it anyways.
Watching replay, I'll give Guddy some credit for fighting Getzlaf. Honestly didn't think he had it in him. Doesn't make up for the fact he hasn't stood up for EP once. He's come in for Jakey once and Boeser once now. Makes you wonder what his decision process is.
Since he's screwed up the whole time, he has a lot of work to do IMO. He has to step up every time now. Which is probably why he didn't want to do it before.
For Boeser? Ive missed this. When was it and against who?
Wasn't it technically Virtanen stood up for Boeser, then Guddy came in with the punches as the third man?
I am absolutely fine with this team drafting 6-10th. As long as we get a top 10 pick I’m thrilled because it means we took a step forward , got another high draft pick and our young guys like Boeser , Pettersson etc took steps forward . Next year you add in Hughes and Dahlen plus Juolevi and hopefully another high draft pick and this team is that much closer to contention
I think next season we could be a dark horse team but we need a couple top 4 defenseman in the offseason and 2 top 9 forwards

If we keep losing does Benning sell during TDL
Sell what? In order to sell something you need a buyer that would want to buy something that you have. What do we have of value?
Benning....dummy..its his fault the trade bait got injured..?..Should've planned farther ahead.Benning caught once again with his pants down. The usual suspects in regards to trade bait are all injured yet again at the deadline and he only has waiver wire fodder like Granlund and Pouliot to offer up which no one will want. I doubt we do anything at the deadline.
I would like to see them try Erik Gudbranson as the net front presence similar to when Boston successfully did it with Zdeno Chara, another big bodied defenseman
Not sure why they don’t just try it. The more I think about it the more I think it would be great for Gudbransons confidence to be on the power play and it would help him develop his all around game. He’s good at clearing his crease so it should follow that he should also be good at stopping the opposing Dmen from clearing their crease. His big body would be a screen. And he can use that assignment to practice tipping pucks. I say why not give it a try.

Absolutely terrible idea.
If he's bad at a role he's been playing for years, training specifically at, the idea of sending him into completely new one that require zero skills he possesses aside from being a big body; that's just dumb. There's reasons it happens maybe once every 5 years in the NHL.

Hey we traded Delzotto,so it's not as bad as you think.Guddy can and should be traded,Granlund ,Goldobin,Sell what? In order to sell something you need a buyer that would want to buy something that you have. What do we have of value?
I dont think its too hard to figure out if you take into account the code and having a dance partner and the timing of the hits and seeing what happened even.Watching replay, I'll give Guddy some credit for fighting Getzlaf.

1) Juolevi sucks.
2) “another step forward” = another year older for everyone including Tanev / Edler
3) your hopes are on Dahlen / Hughes to be a “contender”... neither has played an NHL game.
4) next year ALL we need according to you is JUST
Top 9 forward
Top 9 forward
Top 4 defensman
Top 4 defensman.
Does it ever rain where you live or is it constantly sunny?
It’s insane to me that some people think that you only need to be big to be a good netfront presence and that it doesn’t take a lot of skill as well.
