Player Discussion Jeff Gorton

[Ori]

I hope G. Sather do something to solve this predicament.

He sold his house earlier in Palm Springs in LA in June 2016.

Funny thing is replace Zborovsky with Smith and thats a better defense than what the Rangers are running out there right now.

Based on.....?

 

[Ori]

You don`t see any coaches in soccer in Europe get contract extension before champions league. It`s an off season activity when the season is over so it`s possible to evaluate the whole season. And that`s a huge mistake in my opinion as GM. I really doubt Sather had anything to do with that contract extension as president.

How bad Staal and Girardi are?

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Suggest to play Glass or not?

Suggest to play Glass or not?

I am all for playing Glass, as long as it's Hayes that sits. If Buchnevich comes out of the line-up, I am not watching and this season is over for me.

Brace yourself, that may very well happen.

 

[JimmyG89]

Maybe the GM has faith in the coach. Maybe the GM agreed with Glass getting called up.

Well, it that's the case, neither are right about Glass. He's not an NHL player. He 's a dying breed. He's another Chris Neil. He was probably decent to have 5-7 years ago, but now, he sticks out like a sore thumb.

Every team is moving towards 4 skilled lines. If you want to say the 4th line isn't skilled, that's fine, but every team is moving in this direction. If you're a player like Glass, you won't survive in this league.

Comparing the Sens lineup, they have someone like Burrows, but even he has more skill in his declining years than Glass. Every spot in the lineup is important and you cannot waste one on Glass.

I believe Gorton is in tune with this based on his offseason moves. Hopefully after this season is over, we won't have the discussion around someone who lacks skill playing in the lineup.

You know it's going to be Buch who sits if Glass comes in.

See you for the draft.

See you guys in June!

[Oscar Lindberg]

I like to imagine Gorton is like this haha

Or 'Alain, I don't care, I'm building for next year" haha

JG: "Bench Smith and Skjei in the 3rd and play Staal-Holden to death."
AV: "What a great idea, I will do that."

*AV walks out of the room all happy*

JG: "No...I mean literally to death..."

Chris Neil is a bush league cynical creep who plays to injure fellow professionals. Glass is not that at all.
I know that's not really your main point. But just wanted to be fair to Glass.

I decided to go to bed. Important interview at work today. Couldn't afford to stay up all night and blow this

Since February Gorton has added:

Smith
Pedrie
Bereglazov
Pionk

A lot more competition on the back end now. Good work!

Don't forget the goalie, Nell

 

[Raspewtin]

Gorton has no more excuses.

He absolutely needs to nail this offseason.

If AV still has his toys, he won't want to play with these guys.

Yep. This is it, make or break as far as confidence goes. Extending AV was a big strike. He's going to have to go full wizard mode to make up for it.
