S Skinner - Maybe
Dermott
Emberson
J Skinner
T. Stecher


None of these guys should or will be anywhere near this team if we are to win a cup.

None.


Use the cap on better players man. Stop fxxx around the edges with castoff trash

Thats 8.6M on 5 players, 1.7M average.

You know what you get on the open market for 1.7M average over 5 players. A lot of cast off trash.

Or useful youth on ELC contracts. More than one way to skin a tight cap.

Hard to believe that Cornelius isn't an all star by now, being better than Mahomes and all.

That was Tom Brady is better y'old cud.

Testing for echo

You actually trashed Mahomes. And then admitted you hardly ever watched the NFL.

Oilers have to be one of if not the worst drafting team in the league.

Oilers haven’t be one of if not the worst drafting team in the league.

The only two guys worth any salt are gone now.

Yes I'm in a pissy mood after that preseason and home opener.

Should have upgraded to Holland's $8M/season package that included good drafting. You can't expect to get everything for just $5M.

I really miss that guy

Fixed.

You do it too. Any Elks fan here knows that.

Phat Skinner. Since you're triggered.

How Much Should I Weigh for My Height and Age?

How much you should weigh for your height and age depends on several factors. Learn more about how to measure health and weight, such as BMI, body fat percentage, and other ratios.

Now that scale is for an average person, not a professional athlete in the sport of pro hockey where weight is not any advantage for a goalie.

Sorry not sorry about stating facts.

Kind of false that some weight isn't an advantage for goalie. In order to have the strength to seal the post in awkward positions so you don't get out muscled by attackers jamming away/crashing the net you need lower body mass, and lower body strength (and hence muscle mass) is a necessity in improving the power of your cross ice pushes and lateral movements. Some guys are just more athletic than others and Skinner's weight has nothing to do with his lack of athleticism. Vasi is one of the most athletic goalies at the same exact size.

Weight by muscle is different. Yes. Muscle can be helpful. I've seen Skinner he's less muscular than I was in highschool and by his own admission he'd never trained in his life till a few years ago. I doubt he's much of a specimen now. Watch Skinner try to push off and do routine moves across and he's exhibiting lack of strength. He sometimes cheats using post to push off.

Now watch Skinners pregame warming up routine vs other goalies. Skinners is laughable. Hardly any stretching, hardly any good work, he warms up like somebody injured would. Clumsy, not controlled even in warm up. In a game in Carolina he tried a move across and tumbled over on his ass. The Panthers players laughed before pumping 5 goals by him in 30mins. That was just 11mths ago.

Lets not for a moment either that Skinner has the same muscle mass or training regimen of a Vasi. That guy trains like a beast.
