Jonathan Kovacevic leads the Devils with a +13 rating and has been rock solid for them. Another fun fact is that during six professional seasons, he has always been in the plus column, even when he played for us, lol. He plays on a minimum-wage NHL contract, wish we had a guy like that lol.

Jordan Harris not even being able to crack a poor Columbus D is pretty indicative our coaching staff and pro scouts don't have the best idea about talent. Meanwhile kovacevic is a bonafide top 4 d, wonder if he makes it to free agency.

We've had too many guys skipping AHL time to develop on the fly and it's not been working well for many of them.

No one here said Kovacevic is a top 4 D when partnered properly but he was the only experienced depth we had on RD.
It turns out Kovacevic could have been a natural replacement for Savard but no one claimed that either.

However I agree having put all our eggs in the Reinbacher Mailloux basket before July 1st was a strategic error.
Having watched Laval down the stretch I still thought Reinbacher who was better than Mailloux needed some finishing.
We had plenty of built in flexibility on that left side but moving that experience with Barron still unproven. :help:

Some of us were practically crucified for saying this (5000 times, in increasingly combative and argumentative tones) :sarcasm:

You were dead wrong at the time and even ran from the forum instead of eating crow. Entire threads were unreadable of whining. This victim complex while you dance that Slaf is in a small rough patch has gotten really old.

Calgary beating Florida is a nice surprise. The dream is still alive.

Florida has not scored a goal in their last 2 games. Those were against the Canucks who have had their problems on home ice and now against Calgary.

Their next 2 games are against the oilers who seem to be playing well now and the wild.
