Well get him better linemates then.Still think this team is lost. We had to work so hard to beat a team missing basically an entire first line in Kesler, Getzlaf, and Silverberg. Weren't they missing a Dman, too?
Happy to see Dumba getting all that TOI with Suter on the first pairing. OT heroics aside, some of it was pretty ugly, but it's time to take the training wheels off with him, and if Suter is so damn good then he can start dealing with him. He has had nothing but a pair of enablers as D partners in Brodin and Spurgeon. If we could separate Spurgeon from Suter and maybe have him play with Olofsson/Reilly/ Brodin it would make us stronger, I think.
Liking the Brodin/Murphy pairing. They seem to compliment one another.
Prosser has been a breath of fresh air. Is it because he is well rested? Or has he finally figured out how to play in the league? Whatever, he looks decent out there, and he has to be when he is playing with Reilly.
Koivu was set up a couple of times at least(by Coyle and Brodin, for sure) but couldn't convert. Need some scoring from him.
I don't know what the Wild need to do to be better besides get Parise back, or get some new personnel in to replace what we have on the bottom six. It's not like they are perfect, but the top 6(assuming Coyle is top 6)is looking reasonably good.
Ek plays responsibly, and is physical in a low key way, but he has got to find a way to bring some offense.

3rd rounder and I will drive him home myself.Waddaya know -
Buffalo Sabres Miss Marcus Foligno Badly
Foligno is a less talented but harder working version of Stewart. Zero need for both guys on the same roster.Foligno is hired muscle, and that's about it. In a league that is trending away from physical play.
Maybe we can trade him to the Islanders for whatever 1st-rounder they're screwing up now.
3rd plus our cap space back yabba dabba dooo! look i dont hate foligno as a player i just think fletch way way way overpaid him. fletch must have a man crush on him. cheers.3rd rounder and I will drive him home myself.
Fletch has said more than once that they have been chasing Foligno for awhile. More than a crush I'd say...3rd plus our cap space back yabba dabba dooo! look i dont hate foligno as a player i just think fletch way way way overpaid him. fletch must have a man crush on him. cheers.
