I assumed he meant the regular season.
This likely means some extended tryouts for the young guys this year, might have two extra rookies getting opening day ice time if they earn it. Should make for an exciting training camp.

Would assume Beckman jumps all over this opportunity while Addison should easily walk into the D spot.This likely means some extended tryouts for the young guys this year, might have two extra rookies getting opening day ice time if they earn it. Should make for an exciting training camp.
I wish we could get Yurov over here now.Maybe they give Ohgren a 9 game stint?
Shaw and Rau were far more effective forwards than Beckman last year down in Iowa. Maybe Chaffee, too.Would assume Beckman jumps all over this opportunity while Addison should easily walk into the D spot.
Does anyone think certain players were playing with more serious injury that we were aware of? If so, shouldn't the trainer have stepped in and say no?This likely means some extended tryouts for the young guys this year, might have two extra rookies getting opening day ice time if they earn it.

There’s obviously some huge grey areas that fans will never know since it concerns players personal medical files, but generally NHL players will do anything that they can to stay in and play in the playoffs. Unless the injury can cause permanent damage, they generally let them play if it is only a pain management type of injury. Numerous players every year get off season surgery after playoffs.Trade Talbot, sign Semyon from Washington who was just released

In greenways role or are we promoting Duhaime/Dewar to that spot and someone to 4th line?Shaw and Rau were far more effective forwards than Beckman last year down in Iowa. Maybe Chaffee, too.

It's just weird that greenway and one other wild player are missing the beginning of season because of what I guess one could deem serious injury?Some probably were. The players are all adults and can mostly make their own decisions about their health and wellness. Trainers really can't do much, they aren't doctors.
Depends. It could be there was a chance for the injury to heal without surgery and they elected that option first. The injury didn't heal (entirely) and surgery was the next option.It's just weird that greenway and one other wild player are missing the beginning of season because of what I guess one could deem serious injury?

Anyone here want him?Malkin testing free agency. Maybe Guerin can convince him to sign for $1MM per under the premise he is getting the gang back together.
If it could work money wise, absolutely.Anyone here want him?
Makes me physically sick to think about thisWe're going to trade Dumba and Talbot, sign Malkin (4x$7) and Samsonov (1x$2). Trade Zuccarello next summer and sell Yurov on coming over. Russian top line.
Who knows? Both Rau and Shaw were significantly tougher than Beckman last year, even though he is 6" taller than them. IMO, Beckman has to come back much stronger this fall, and figure out how get his shot off more effectively.In greenways role or are we promoting Duhaime/Dewar to that spot and someone to 4th line?

Nothing wrong with constructive criticism I just want none of Rau in the nhl.Who knows? Both Rau and Shaw were significantly tougher than Beckman last year, even though he is 6" taller than them.

Don't mean to be negative.... I think he still has a shot to be a NHL player.
For sure, it's Beckmans first pro season. It's fair to start worrying about 2.5nd AHL in season.Who knows?
