the coach is clueless in tampa

stamkos is getting 19 minutes per game, has 33 so far this year

I doubt he would get under 21 minutes here and more pp goals with the blades

Not to mention that he is playing winger for them and HATES the wing.


Maybe it would be another ROR type deal where he can come in and go to center and prove that he is that player that everyone talked about being there.

I always liked the idea of Ryan but then I watch our games against OTT and I NEVER see him just jumping or standing out to me. He is just a guy out there for them it seems. Not a 7M type guy. An even more expensive Evander Kane some might say.

I think I'd rather have Kane

good garth blog, must read

Can't tell if serious or

I agree.

I saw him against NYR a few weeks back with Buffalo--Sabres.

His speed and play making skills are great. He was always in the right place, centering the puck, or looking for help.

35 gs and 45 assists... man. I really hope so.
- JVince11

He is learning to play a complete NHL game with during a complete NHL season. He has been playing at almost a PPG rate since Christmas. I think he only get better.

That's big coming from you.


How about Bogosian lately though....

They must be watching Garth's blog, someone posts and then it gets deleted.

Who is they?

- sbroads24

I know you have been coming around on him...

I agree. When Kane isn't finding the score sheet he is at least playing. Ryan is a floater IMO

Talk about dropping the mic. Melnyk threw the mic out the window, lit the podium on fire and then rode off on his Harley Davidson.

Badass.


quality stuff right there

He's been great. This is more of what I thought he was. Not the tire fire that was his first 40 or so games

True statement.

I have been most impressed with his durability and ability to be the same player every night while getting conditioned to the longer season. (1 game missed just last week)

Maybe injury was still a factor? I mean as of late he looks like a completely different player.

I think thats why they fired that coach...

None of the players trusted him.

Lehner, Bogosian, Kane...all had issues with him

They are letting him play a 2 way game. I felt like earlier this year he was the stay at home defensive guy. Now they are letting him come down to the face off circles and join the chase.

I feel like he is taking a lot more shots from the point too.

I'm curious if Ennis will see the ice again. He was skating and practicing in a red jersey last month before the deadline I thought.

Totally different.

His is more conditioning after going through concussion protocol's

Bylsma said he believes Ennis will play this season

He was quietly going at a ppg pace for a while there . I didnt notice till they mentioned it on the sens broadcast.

Risto is now the team lowest -19

However,

Again... he was the player that I was MOST IMPRESSED with when I saw the NYR game a few weeks back. He is BRUTALLY physical out there. Always looking to put his body into someone. Always in someone's face after a whistle.

That dude is gonna be EVERY BIT legit as we can hope for a two way defensemen.

There is something about Bobby Ryan I don't like. Not sure what it is. Good player, just always seems like he's struggling for long stretches
- sbroads24

good point, Brodie, he is a bit uneven, but he's a known quantity with size, speed and a great scoring touch...plays north/south and is smack dab in the middle of his prime...

very tempting, but i do agree with what you said

Detroit may be a team to look at as well. Lots of forwards coming through and not enough ice time for all of them.

Just for the completely useless and non-comparable stat line of two different players but still is fun to do sometimes...

Bogo - 20 pts in 56 games = .357 ppg
Myers - 27 pts in 72 games = .375 ppg
