Hägg in the top 4, I called it also Wedin is seriously gonna slow those two down.

Somebody has to take Ekholm's spot, that someone should be Marcus though.

I think he might move Gustafsson down when Ekholm arrives.

 

[Star Ocean]

If not backstrom i hope for landeskog. Sharks gonna win, it is fate.

 

[Star Ocean]

Dahlin and gronborg doesnt seem to agree on things.

Eww.

[Star Ocean]

Eww.

Would love to see EK65 lift the cup after some troubled time.

Mysteriet kring Dahlin: ”Du får fråga Rasmus”

 

[EK47]

Source?

He doesn’t have one. I think he’s basing it of Grönborgs comments to Hockeynews after Dahlin declined Grönborgs invitation when they asked about it :”du får fråga Rasmus om anledningen” was his answer.

EDIT: Yep

FWIW I think you’re reading too much into this. I think he pissed himself when Buffalo advised him not to go.

No, read the latest interview with gronborg today. Something is obviously not right. It doesnt take Einstein to interpret his cryptic comments.

How about next season with a different team instead?

Nah Sharks is fine. Thornton deserves a cup also.

Nah, he doesn't. Dirty player.

As I said I think he pissed himself when Buffalo advised him not to go.

Could be. I am not saying against you.

 

[EK47]

Bäckström is out. Injured.

 

[Star Ocean]

Bäckström is out. Injured.

Thats a blow. Not too surprising though.

I guess landeskog is the only quality forward left to add.

 

[EK47]

Thats a blow. Not too surprising though.

Puts more pressure on Nylander/Lindholm. Could be interesting atleast.

Nylander takes C on second line now?

Grönborg has earlier said that it's up to the players to give the media his reasons for not going if it isn't injuries/contract related, so not weird at all.

---

So, been thinking, most balanced top-6 would look like this imo:

Lindblom - Pettersson - Lindholm (Lindholm takes majority of face-offs)
Bratt - Nylander - Hörnqvist

 

[EK47]

Nylander takes C on second line now?

Most likely atleast if Pettersson finds chemistry with Lindholm and Bratt I don’t think Kempe will be trusted as a top 6 center.

You have to split Nylander and Bratt up you need someone to Carry the puck on both lines.
