GDT: Hawks @ Mild 10/1/24 CHSN (Same time new channel) Do it for lou!

Reichel looks invisible. D-zone and rush coverage is still bad, very uninspiring game overall. Hopefully this is not a preview of what is to come.

Send Jones, Murphy, Reichel, Dach and Allan to Edmonton

Bowman can have his players back

We’ll take Nurse, Kulak, Podkolzin, Lavoie and Wanner in return…do it!

That is just awful for us

Been saying it since the end of last season. Reichel doesn’t have it. He doesn’t know how to make plays. Simple as that. Nazar will fill that vacancy though, fret not. Reichel won’t cut it as a top 9 forward and will be off the team when his contract is up.

Prospects are by and large overrated, guys. Many of you have way too much interest in them IMHO. The success rate is way too low across the board. Best you can do is suck enough and hope you’re high picks pan out and a few of your later round picks over the course of a rebuild become more than what their draft position projects them to be.

Reichel's likely remaining value is as a reclamation project, for other teams that believe in their development group enough.

We should probably look for a trade soon or max at the TDL to extract another struggling prospect that fits our style better.

Maybe Boucher from Ottawa?

Haven’t watched any preseason. How’s Korchinski looked?

Ah, it’s like every summer I forget how ridiculously reactive this board is. KK made a bad decision, recovered well enough only to have Reichel bat the puck in the net and all of a sudden he might struggle in the AHL.

Was going to say behold the dichotomy of the Chicago superfan

Edmonton is missing a top 4 RD. Murphy seems like a likely target for them at the deadline.

And before everyone goes nuts about Murphy being bad. 1. That has never stopped Stan from getting what he wants 2. There will be very few top 4 RD available at the deadline as always.

Murphy every year and every season is a target for some team but they never budge or rather it never happens

Think the reality is he’s not well valued as a top 4 d in the league, which is saying something as a right hander.
