2nd PP time, 1:16mins/G
- JAKEw1234


Yeah just saw that. Half of what Schenn got though. Add on top of that the Schenn did :09mins/g of PK work.

So really they played the same amount of time 5v5. Coots with a slight advantage of 1 minute a game.

I think Coots has more offensive upside than Schenn.

NHL inflation. Player salaries increase every year.

It's a matter of opinion. I think most people believe the WHL. The Q is more offensive oriented and the WHL is more defensive oriented.

They are all good, it will always depend on who you ask that question.

Wow the Columbus crowd is really representing well, I think every person they have shown is standing and cheering. Pretty impressive.

Yeah. From what I've heard, the OHL has the most talent depth, the WHL has good defensive depth and is a more rugged style and the Q has more offensive talent, but many are undersized and not built for the NHL.

There are obvious exceptions in every league. I'm just using generalizations I've heard and read.

GiG and Hammar have stepped up for playoff time.

Worst +/- on team, From Bottom up

Timonen -4
Coburn -4
Schenn -3
COOTS -2
Vinny -2
Simmonds -2
Read -2

I must admit. As bad as our top line has been, our other lines have been worse.

They're doing it like All-Star voting. Fans get to choose the lengths now. Since the All-Star votes are so legit, it only seemed right.

I think our best chance of winning this series.. is to have Comrade De Blasio declare eminent domain on MSG and bulldoze it before game 4.
