This is also against Toronto. I can understand why Gauthier is out, but man Oliver just isn't the same player. Team really needs bottom 6 improvement next season. i'll bang the table for Dakota Joshua to replace Martin/Clutterbuck
You understand? Then explain it to me because I think Gauthier has been more productive than Fasching and Wahlstrom and gets into the offensive zone cleaner than either of those two.

Toronto doesn’t have defense or goaltending. One major difference between the teams. My fantasy team does depend on the production of Auston Matthews so if they score, hopefully it’s only him.
We have a BINGO.

Gauthier barely gets into the zone. he's such a ghost unless he's on the rush. I can say the exact same thing with Holmstrom.

That was a typo, should have been can’t. Wally looks lost 50% of the time and the rest is on the bench. I’m on the list of people who wants to ship Wallyworld to Arizona if we can get 2 sorority chicks turned ice girls and a used ASU helmet in return.

Former Islander Chris Wagner available. If Zeke is actually injured perhaps the Mass native is worth a tumble. Would have minded seeing Aho waived and Gustav Lindtrom added.

if they're gonna do that then just put Nelson on the third line. Barzy isn't a third liner at all. And putting Fasching with Engvall looks terrible also.

Do you really think Barzal is a better center than Nelson, Barzal is right where he belongs in this situation.

The Isles said Cizikas is week to week. If they want to look at outside help for a bottoom 6 center, they should expand a trade to include a backup goalie. Maybe there’s a match for us o

On the rush is something we need. Besides he’s been pretty good at keeping up with Pageau.

yes, think barzal is a better center than Nelson and I'm a big Nelson fan.
Put Barzal on the second line and see if he produces the points Nelson has this year or put Nelson with Horvat and I will bet he puts up a large amount more then Barzal has this year.

This looks like the desperate moves that Cappy and Weight would make when they were out of answers too.

If Cizikas is only week to week, I'd rather they either just sign Parise already or call up MacLean.
I forgot about MacLean. I would call him up. He plays the same type of game as Cizikas. May not be able to kill penalties up here is the only drawback but I can see 12 minutes a game out of him.

Was wondering if I was the only one . . . ads in the middle of posts so you can't see the words. Plus the bottom of the page encroaching on half the screen with a white block.
I’ll add that my page reloads if I’m in the middle of typing a long post.

It looks like my text was erased but if I reload the page one more time it reappears.

It’s getting very annoying.

I have the reload issue too, but sometimes it does not reappear. It is bizarre.

#13 will put up just as much points. Pretty sure the league's coaches game plan is to shut down Barzal as opposed to Nelson. What I would like to see one day as an experiment is both guys playing together

It’s really a shame for both of us because there’s some great ideas that have been lost forever and can’t be shared with the rest of the board.

Maybe even a cure for cancer?

What, you don't foresee a Beauvillier-Cizikas-Gauthier 4th line next season?

Joshua is gonna be a hot commodity as a UFA.

I honestly see a Martin-Cizikas-Clutterbuck 4th line next year because of Lou.

Gauthier-Cizikas-Fasching if he gives up on his veterans and moves on. Iskhakhov-Pageau-Holmstrom would be an interesting 3rd line.
