That grin!
Gotta feel good for the kid

This is very true. He is massively overrated. Good player for sure, but not top 5 like a lot think
- walshyleafsfan

He finished top five last year... and the year before that

about fkn time hutton

Edler, Gardiner is looking like a career 5-6 defenseman.

So is Edler

Orr and Lidstrom.

Wait, what game are we playing??

I'm not a fan of the tank but if Henrik is injured I will order a Canucks Matthews jersey right now.

Time for a JT beat down

So is Edler

Jeremiah, you literally have no idea wtf you are talking about. Playing D at the NHL level is ridiculously difficult, Edler is a 24minute a night positionally sound d-man. You can not like him, that's fine, but he's a legit top 4 on every team in the league. I'm not sure why you are provoking me since you never bring any legitimate arguments to the table, and our arguments usually end with you arguing "well whatever" which is the calling card of a truly gifted debater. master debater even.

Kessel's been pretty high too

I like Kessel, he's pretty good. Not sure what you're trying to say. JT plays defence, Kessel doesn't.

Steelers are looking good so far, if you guys need a new wagon

He doesn't like Edler. Nothing wrong with that.

You are correct with your comment , he would be a top 4 on every team. I am not a fan . I don't like many parts of his game . I look forward to when we change the D. Bullfrog is just more aggressive with his comments.

You are actually both correct with some of your comments

Thunda , Vey creates a lot of chances

Jeez that Etem kid needs a pail to carry the puck laterally

Because I'm not arguing...it's my opinion and as such I can have any opinion I want. But saying Edler is positionaly sound, that's just a reckless statement ...I'm concerned you may have a medical issue or some sort of drug problem. Either way , with a statement like that I just can't take anything you say seriously anymore.

That's why Vrbata is minus 40 and has dragged Horvat down with him.

If you actually watch JT you'll notice he doesn't play when the puck isn't on his stick. Ask Islanders fans how they feel about his game.

My point was, as I agreed with Scooby, Tavares is overrated

Thunda , Vey creates a lot of chances

He is playing well. Yes.

JB loses me if he extends Vrbata. Guy is done.

Why? Give me some sort of relevant fact. You are like Donald Trump, zero sense and just inflammatory comments.

I'll give you an example: With Edler on the ice the other team takes less shots. Edler takes the most d-zone faceoffs of all our d-men. These are a few facts that lead me to believe he is positionally sound. Now you try it.

I'm voting for Carly Fiorina.

On a positive note we are missing two of our top three centres and beating a top 10 team.

Steelers and Patriots are trash. Would never cheer for either team.
