Sullivan gots to go!
If the people who run this franchise watched Yager in the Memorial Cup, and then STILL decided to trade him, that is concerning moving forward.

As an unabashed McG fan, I do not think you're ever going to see him putting up gaudy numbers. His value comes in his addition to a line and what he does for his linemates to make their lives easier on the ice, imo. I don't think that's a bad thing, but I'm not sure that's the right thing to be adding to a team with no real production drivers in their prospect system.
When it was made public McG was on his way out of Winnipeg I wanted Dubas to trade for him, but not at the cost of Yager or a 1st rounder. Don't know if that was even remotely possible though. I still like Yager a lot as a prospect, fwiw, but I don't think he's a foundational piece or building block either.
Neither would ever amount to anything meaningful under Sullivan though, imo. He must be fired if this team wants anything to come from any of their prospects--and that includes the potential top-5 picks they're gonna be stockpiling in short order.

He’s been in the top 6 in the last 5, shot totals suggest he’s involved and getting looks.
They tend to just balance 3 lines evenly, sometimes 4, and just roll them over. I find that in the AHL you’ll have 1 line getting hot and carrying the offense then they go cold and it’s another line or another group of 2-3 players. The powerplay units tend to be spread out more too. Sometimes using a 3rd unit.
Frankly he and a few others should be producing more. Poulin’s gone a bit cold, too. Gruden should be a .5 PPG player in the AHL. Pono no points since 2 games back.

Stat watching it looks like they need to find the right combos after getting McG and Pono. Bemstrom and Poulin were playing well with Huntington, who I think is hurt now? Or my theory that a guy named Jimmy Huntington from Quebec doesnt actually exist.
Making a road trip to WB/S tomorrow to see the game. Will post some observations in this thread for anyone who cares

Pettersson to Vanocouver E5...
Probably to send Waugh or Lindgren to Wheeling, as they have 5D at the moment. I was at their opener Saturday, and they had David Jankowski (mark's brother) playing D

There's grievous insults then there is THAT. What'd I ever do to you, sir?!?
It is kinda funny I used that term though. I generally shake my head and say "so he sucks, then?" whenever that's used in defense.
But I'm more than willing to be patient with Groat. He's just not really what was sold IMO. But that's not his fault.

As long as he continues to play the right way, stays on the right side of the puck, has a shoot-first mentality, and has stick-to-itiveness, he should be able to carve out a long and prestigious career in WBS.

He seems good enough that he might even get ahead of he curve and play for Sullivan before he's 27!
Koivunen 12th in scoring for under 22 players.
Of course Miroshnichenko is number 1 because we truly live in the darkest timeline.

I think McG has pretty high offensive upside. 20-50 guy good for 70 points or so. But that also hinges on #1 PP time on the half-wall.

Sullivan didn't like his sticktoitiveness.
This lad has the worst luck with injuries. I'm sure over the weekend he'll be out indefinitely because he got hit by a bus on the way to the gym.

Looks like they did some shuffling. McG with Broz and Poulin as L2 tonight. Bemstrom-Pono-Koiv as L1

I really wish someone claimed Bemstrom. I shudder at the thought of his meandering ass being a recall.

This should be Jarry's last game in WBS. His conditioning stint ends tomorrow. He probably starts against the Wings on Wednesday

Pens legend Garret Wilson is the Lehigh Valley captain. He hasnt sniffed the NHL since he got 50 games with the Pens lol
Koivunen scores on the PP! He looked really good the entire PP. Some nice passes along with the goal

It will be corrected if any of them ever get called up. Rest assured.
