GDT: TankTown Express: No Sunny Side Up

And just like that Schenn is 1 point away from a 50 point season. If he keeps this up for like 3 more years then I think his contract was worth it.

 

[PJJJP]

I’m confused. Was Brown scratched or something? We look good this game.

Minnesota is the definition of mediocre. Without Kaprizov they are bad

 

[Bye Bye Blueston]

Like I said, Vrana has always been a talented NHL scorer

Exactly. Question isn’t whether he can score. It’s can he do other things you need to win games?

 

[ChicagoBlues]

You need Kodi

I found one, but will look up Kodi.

Cool. Kodi is open sores.

 

[Mike Liut]

Is the cap going up in 2 years? We need room to sign Vrana, Blais and Kapanen after next year.

I think he can be a good 3C. Need him on more cycle heavy lines I think. This line with Saad and Blais has looked good. Don't think he can keep up on a more up-tempo line like when he's with Kyrou.

 

[Robb_K]

Vrana fits our core’s age. We need to keep him long term

One of the Understatements of The Year!

My comments were directed at the people at 101 espn who continuously said Vrana struggled in Detroit and wondered if he could provide a scoring touch here. The obviously answer was always yes, but I agree, I hope he can provide at least a modicum of back checking for the time he's here.

I see no reason at all to trade away Vrana for a pick. He may outprice himself, but let's cross that bridge later.

If I want TNT I have to pay $40/mo for SLING

I already have Bally's and ESPN subscriptions

i heard next year each game will be on a separate streaming service, it's not true but if i don't catastrophize this, who else will to stop them?

 

[AjaxManifesto]

Welp...got a 10 minute free view of TNT and the intermission crew is arguing that Bouchy's goal is GI.

WTF

Vrana has been a pretty shit acquisition for the tank.

Need that 2C

Possibly sooner.

Could make for a very interesting summer.

Need that 2C

I pray for Bedard, Fantilli, or Carlson

 

[ChicagoBlues]

I can't take it. Dumba pushes from behind.

What a shitshow on TNT. All started with the woman's take on it being GI and all the SIMPS on the panel followed up in agreement.

I don't think Dumba pushed him. He was already bent forward so much that his momentum took Buch into Fleury.

well be picking Reinbacher at #10

 

[Linkens Mastery]

well be picking Reinbacher at #10

I hope not.

 

[ChicagoBlues]

well be picking Reinbacher at #10

If and only if he is the Blues' BPA when we pick.

 

[Mike Liut]

I hope not.

he’ll be better than the remaining forwards on the board

 

[mab894]

Michkov please

I'm looking at Buchy's skates. They cut an arc pointing AWAY from the goalie. If his skates are tracking towards the goalie I would agree with you. Dumba gets his right leg behind him and is pushing.

 

[Linkens Mastery]

I completely disagree. There are about 15 forwards I would pick before I would touch a defenseman.
