Shouldn't this be 'Pre-Game Talk'?

Should be a good test tomorrow. More of a real team. Going to be interesting to see the lineup. Practice notes for today should be out soon.

Too long between games.​


So hard to believe it's the 18th of October and they've only played four games so far.

At some point those missed early games will have to be played. So unless they plan on playing until July the games will be coming fast and furious. Plus since they started the yesr playing a bunch of crummy teams they end the year playing a bunch of good teams.

I'm hoping the back half of the season is much better viewing than what we have seen so far.

I'm not sure your point but I also wasn't clear in making my point either (it made sense in my head only).

i think the league as a whole is, in general, a few games behind for this time of year. They started about a week late and there's been big gaps between game days. So if they want to have the season end at it's normal time they will have to pick up the pace.

Either that or award the cup in August.

I don't really get the point of Holmberg is he's going to be on the wing. Berube seemed to want him to be a big PK guy early but he had bad moments there and has been replaced at this point.

If Jarnkrok comes back that seems like the obvious spot for him I guess, with Tavares and Robertson.

Lilly back on the 4th pair. Well so much for showcasing. Berube just doesn't like him. Unfortunate but thats reality now

Seems to be the case so far. I'm a fan of Lilly, but he didn't have a good game last game at all. I think he's better than Timmins, but he sure hasn't shown it. It's a shame that he might get moved now, and excel elsewhere.

I wouldn't mind Myers to get in...he's got size, and seems to have some snarl to his game too.

I supposed a roster move or 2 would have to happen though.
Injuries happen

Remember lagesson and benoit, they weren’t roster players at the start of last season, injuries brought them up and they ran with it

Tanev gets pretty banged up during the season, and Rielly misses games too. You never know he might get in
