Can’t ice a team of babies without having an adult or two on the roster. You’re going to get abused by Boston, Washington, and the Isles nightly. Teams aren’t stupid.
There ya go !!! Plus Schneider makes an entry at some point ....Barron is bigger addition then a smurf and maybe Gauthier finds a pair between his legs . If all that came together it adds a a few more wins and in all likelihood not any more Panarin bodyslams ! That was ridiculous ! Not sure how any member of our organization can be happy with that last night...an embarrassment to our team .Add Foligno
Add Reaves
And go from there. Leadership and team toughness improved instantly, while getting heavier to play against.
3 punching bags ....LOL..well...at least Trouba might stand a chance .You know what? We do. We have Trouba, Kreider and Lindgren. But all 3 are out with injury
Many here unfortunately seem to forget that hockey is a violent and emotional game when played on ice and not a video screen and there are times you have to change the flow of emotions on the ice and that was exactly what Tom Wilson was doing last night...and I must say....he made a great job of it . We have nobody in our organization that has an ounce of that in their blood . JD though does know how the game is still played or he should since he was trained through the WHL Canadian junior league. I have faith in JD that this will be addressed.....and maybe even before Wednesday night's game...we can still trade with another non playoff club .....that's what I would do and I would specifically target Backstrom the next game.....not injure him...just make it f'n miserable for him . Send some kind of message for next season .Why does every take above have to be so binary? Is it really so hard to accept the team needs much more toughness and pushback?
If those are our three toughest that puts us in the bottom-5 least formidable/threatening teams in the league. Look at the composition of some of the teams in our division and out west. Wilson was laughing at a defenseless team while our response is begging for player safety to suspend the mean man.
Wanting a physical player is fine, but it should never come at the expense of skill and talent. I'm so done with the legacy of Andre Deveaux, Kris Newbury, Derek Boogaard and others. You want to add some phyisicality? Go after Matthew Tkachuk. He actually helps you win games.
The only effective deterrent for the escalation/frequency of Tom Wilson is the NHL/DoPS doing its job.
The only real deterrent is having someone willing to abuse their stars. What's the point of fighting Wilson after the fact? I'm not asking for an elbow to Backstrom's head. But target their stars with hard hits and scrums after the whistle and slashes and maybe force them into a fight. Yzerman got sick of paying for Marty Lapoint's actions. Eye for an eye, not "the code".
Daddy, tommy beat my ass on the playground again while all my friends stood by and watched, can you ask the principal to suspend him???The only effective deterrent for the escalation/frequency of Tom Wilson is the NHL/DoPS doing its job.

I hope you enjoyed your stay on the Rangers boards. Now GTFO. /Forumbannedforlife.Daddy, tommy beat my ass on the playground again while all my friends stood by and watched, can you ask the principal to suspend him???
It's hilarious seeing everyone denouncing Wilson's actions and then calling for one of our players to literally decapitate one of their stars. The hypocrisy on display here is pretty amusing
