I would not be surprised if it was Hickey.

So at this point in time you would think Snow would let hickey go before Brian strait or matt Donovan?

No, I said since JT was stickhandling so close to the goalie, they'll probably ban that like they did the spin-o-rama. Can't have goal scoring & stickhandling in the shootout you know. It was sarcasm.

I read so many different forums but this guy had to be an upset Flyers fan as he complained stick handling "creates an unfair advantage for the shooter" and I believe he was serious.

If its btn strait, Donovan, or hickey which is what you said its not going to be hickey. As of now hes a more dependable defenseman than Donovan and strait facking sucks. If theyre going to keep one or two of the three it'll be hickey.

I agree but Hickey will have probably the best value, don't u agree??

I'm here all day long, just rarely post bro, I enjoy the commentary. Not a Stars convert by any stretch but am surpirsed how bad they've been doing. Already planning for the Isles visit March 3rd.

At this point absolutely but that doesn't mean we will trade him. What do you expect to honestly get for hickey and what are we so desperate for at this point that'd we trade a pretty good number 6 defenseman for? I can see strait getting pushed off the depth chart/waived and them holding on to Donovan as a number seven purely on his potential. If hickey went it'd have to be in a package for something potentially big bcs his importance out weighs what we would get and no I dont think hes a game changer but hes reliable for what he does and that reliability is pretty important right now.

I agree but if 1 of Pulock/Reinhart are ready later on into season and have better size and more potential, I'm sorry bro but I'd rather have them in line-up instead. Now that's just my opinion.
