Powe is a better player than VDV. I really have zero clue why VDV is playing NHL games.

Got ma tix to 5 armies.

Have to say didn't like the Hobbit movies, too much CGI making it feel like a video game. End of Middle Earth on screen though, must see.

I know. That would never work! The Red Wings have been soft Europeans/Russians for years and they've sucked!

I don't want the whole team to be soft, but I expect an NHL forward to be able to do at least 1 of stickhandle, shoot, pass, or play well defensively to an adequate level. Please tell me which of those characteristics Rinaldo has.

Could Laughton get the call for LW on the top line?

49-28-93
10-40-17
24-14-18
12-78-76/36/Ryan White

Actually, a healthy Ryan White makes the fourth line not bad.

Berube had some sick obsession with this combo last season. I don't want to see it again.

LeCavalier is a trash fire. Let him rot.

I'm happy to see that Berube is leaning towards giving Lecavalier a second shot at his natural position with decent ice time. To me this is only fair and his last chance due to the fact that Laughton us a suitable replacement. In my opinion it wouldn't be the end of world if Laughton sat agame or centered the fourth line. I kind of feel Bellemare and Laughton have two very similar games at the moment. Vandevelde in my opinion shouldn't be with the club at all but I'm assuming his games are numbered with Ryan White returning.

Sitting Laughton is fine just so long as he and everyone else knows he's not being sent down.

Jackson said he doesn't think the Tolkein estate will let him do the Silmarilion, so what else could he do?

In favour of LeCavalier. Or demoting Laughton to the fourth so Wheels can play.

Troll much?

I don't think Laughton is moving to wing, especially if it means taking Raffl off the top line. I believe Laughton continues to only see center.

White will be an upgrade on the fourth line. He brings much needed grit to the line up.
