Good. Will look better in your top 6 than Talbot did.

That's cute and very clever of you.

Much love for sabres fans

If not, hes an RFA and they could let him walk. Avs have contract issues, too many guys signed into next season and they were at 50 at the deadline. Need to start dropping them to make room for some UFAs and guys who need ELCs

Do this with Guenin, holden and cliche in the off season.

oh i was joking. Caron is a plug and i hope he ruins your season.

but seriously, given what you're talking about does having Caron over Talbot really help you guys? what's the cap hit?

Our season is ruined as it is. Caron is really just taking McGinns spot in the top 9 bc hes out for the season. If he shows he has any hockey ability he will be 12th/13th guy going forward

Yeah it does help us, gives the Avs flexibility with the amount of contracts going forward. Either they drop him or he replaces someone else on the depth chart by letting some other AHLer go (like Carey). Talbot is a signed next season and they have too many 4th line guys already under contract. They wont be getting any better by having the same old guys in the bottom 6 being another year older.

Need to have the ability to start making changes.

Guenin and Cliche can be AHL bound since they have less than 950k hits and wont hurt against the cap if they are sent down. They (frank)ing better be next season

Not so sure, Roy has a love affair with them.

Just wait till he gets a goal in his first game since hes playing with Duchene and Iggy.

no, they said he was going to have to earn his ice time. honestly nothing to see here other than trying to drum something up again. you can't freak out over everything.

Cload must have been pissed his Binky is gone now, I hope Connolly can play defense or he will end up in the poophouse

- BruinBlood

i really don't get where you're coming from. do you really think this kid won't get his shot? it's the first practice. he's coming into a new group and he's not really accomplished much yet in his career so he's going to have to earn his stripes. isn't that kind of what we want?

jeez louise.

yeah you just sound like a felger no nothing when you post this. first practice and the kid with 18 career goals is being made to show what he has. how horrible
