We wont know til we see a decent NHL sample. He was decent in a fair number of his 28 NHL games... was a go to guy for Travis Green last season...

Hutton and Subbie Doo are not going anywhere, we have time.

- boonerbuck



I thought he was below average last year as well, maybe it's just a difference of opinion on Corrado as a player then more so than a Hutton debate. I liked him in the AHL last year but in the NHL I was disappointed and this pre-season as well. Could be a confidence issue, but he looks slower to me as well.

They have discovered moving water on Mars

They are pretty much confirming what thy already knew.

They discovered proof of life(at some point) there too... it goes something like this... they discredited it because of contamination(salt).... then later it was proven that the type of contamination was irrelevant ... the head researcher is in court over it because he knows it's soon going to be discovered(again) by a next generation test and he's going to be ripped off for the credit.

I have zero issues with Hansen, he's a solid 3rd liner. Again, when he does slump offensively like any normal 3rd liner it's more magnified on this team because there's no legit 2nd line.

Well.....them not trading Hansen hurts my feelings. And you know what that means

I guess when you're 65+ you read it in the newspaper the next day. The rest of us got the news yesterday.

Seriously though, while I wouldn't consider him a big loss I hardly think he's part of the problem.

I agree. He looked more promising early on when he seemed over full with confidence.... now he looks pretty unsure of his decisions... hate when that all goes backwards...

On the other hand, once you have already seen they can play better.... it's hard to say will he ever do it... you assume he can... just how fragile and inconsistent are they becomes the question.... but maybe that passes.

Markstrom looks like he has confidence issues but you wouldnt know it at this camp/pre season... a lot can change in a year.

If they can move him for a 2nd at the TDL then I'd do it.

Yeah, he seems like a guy who hasn't adjusted well to pro coaching and added weight. There's always that hope that he'll look like the same guy as the one who earned a late season call up and played well in the playoffs but I'm not holding my breath. He should maybe drop a few pounds to regain mobility and simplify his game, just play on instinct. Tanev's advice to Hutton was to keep it simple and just play the game that got you here and it's done wonders for him this pre-season.

So.....

In China if you run over somebody with your car you are not charged. If the are injured you pay the medical expenses for the rest of their life. If the are killed, you pay for the funeral. So standard practice is to back up and run over them again a couple times to make sure they are dead

Young lineup tonight against a mostly veteran filled SJ roster. Could spell trouble.

The most effed up thing is that this is entirely true, and not some fantasy that a sadist came up with.

I thought the one where 5 people have to die on a job site in one day before the ministry of labour gets involved, was bad.
