Haha I should know better. Last time I commented on something in the knights thread he literally told me it's not for me to be here. That was last year or the year before.
It couldn't have been Fastpace !

Fastpace was 27 months away from this forum without commenting on any post and only got back to posting again 7 months ago. Anyone in contact with Fastpace will tell he despise personalisation of players and posters and is 100% about open & honest communicating. All opposing posters are always welcome but is dead against making up stories. Making up stories is not part of of open & honest communication. Cheers !

According to Keefe - Cowan isn't going anywhere and will be rejoining the leafs when they return from their Collingwood retreat.
Yes-also same thing was mentioned on the Knightshift podcast!

This is great experience for him!

With so many good D man does it make sense to trade 1 for picks to use at trade deadline? Injury's happen but someone like Edward or Leonard would bring healthy picks.

Idk. I feel like they will want to keep it as is… unless someone wants more playing time?

I think Mark would do right by Jackson Edward if he wants out to develop more. He would be a top 4 defenseman or even top 2 potentially on other teams. That actually might help him get a contract from the Bruins but I think Edward would want to stay to be a part of a Championship team. But at the end of the day, Mark has the final say.

No thanks they bring the physical play in the playoffs you need that
Yeah they are the physical presence back there. Mackinnon brings a lot of intangibles also. Shot blocking, just a steady eddy if you will…

Why not start Simpson!?!?!
Because there Are 2 games this weekend early in the season and Owen needs games and the hunters usually start first one on the road. He did well against a good Soo team. They are good so not so much we didn’t show up. Good road game and a few lessons learned but also a point

Was not a bad game against the Soo.

They played well defensively I just wish they'd show more urgency in their skating. I mean they had four break away (including OT) on all of them they were caught up from behind and no good shots were taken. Feet got to move a little bit faster, with that said, every time you need a shootout to to get a winner the game itself couldn't have been that bad.

And yes Soo's Ds played really well

Willmore played well, but I thought the Hunters would have viewed this as a must win
