Post-Game Talk: More than we Borgened for

[will1066]

Real talk, I still can't tell if his love for her is schtick. She's not overly attractive and she is the most unprofessional between the bench reporter I've ever seen.

It's not a schtick. I don't need overly attractive. I need minimal hair, minimal shape, but maximal authenticity. A real genuineness. As for unprofessional, you are wrong. She is professional.

Lindgren, Miller, and Vaak are all out of position well too often. Miller has physical skills to cover ground to make up for it a decent amount of the time. Vaak is whatever and is limited by his 3rd pairing role. Lindgren is an abomination.

Some vets and then some very mediocre bottom line quality forwards aren't good enough to play much of a system effectively against other good NHL players. Some vets just seemingly can't be f***ed to care enough on defense as well.

I like KAMs skills. I think we need KAMs skills. With that said early in the game today he has Borgen wide open and makes a bad pass leading to a turnover. I was thinking KAM I could make that pass and I haven't played since 2007. KAM did make a nice play on Wills goal later on. I think he just needs to concentrate more on the details of the game.

In 2005-06, they had Sandis Ozolinsh and Tom Poti. One was an offensive defenseman. The other was perceived as one.

You forgot to list Willie Huber & Larry Melnyk.

LOL there were some others I considered but not those 2. I did use to feel bad for Huber. Fans were tough on him.

Nah. Just trying to add a positive take.

For what it's worth I appreciate it your takes and think that the post from noncents was uncalled for.

Authenticity is great when you're dating, not when you're supposed to be on live TV giving an interview. Then you shouldn't sound like a 16 who won a "be a reporter for a day" contest.

The Rangers would never have two guys perceived as offensive defensemen.

I know I am reaching back a bit, but Leetch - Zubov (before we f-ed that up)

I think we would grab a quality offensive d-men, if we could, but they are not easy to come by. A good number of them stay with the same team for ages.

I'd say you could tack James Patrick in there, as well. Patrick was usually good for 45-60-ish pts a season.

Edit: on further reading I noticed you did add Patrick a few posts later

I recorded the game, but looking at the boxscore and comments, it looks not worth watching at all and mostly a W cuz Pitt's goalie was complete...

You're kinda describing a lot of 60-year old men

Florida won the cup last season without a big point guy on defense. Id rather have a great shut down guy with decent offense than a Housley type player right now.

I agree. When I say quality offensive d-men, I mean a guy who can play both ways, not offense-only types. There's a reason a guy like Housley took a while to get inducted despite being a 1000+ point d-men
