Oh my god, please, no, make it stop.

Makes me pine for the days of Adam Mair, Andrew Peters and Matt Freakin' Ellis.

My favorite nickname for a line was Peters, Paul, and Mairsy.

This is all secondary planning, Nylander will be 2nd line LW this year, book it
- washedup20




I had assumed when we drafted Nylander,
that the plan was for him to eventually play LW with Jack

However,
last season he played RW all year for Rochester
Nylander, Baptiste, Bailey & Fasching are all RH shots

Bailey had switched to LW last year & was still successful in Rochester
Baptiste played some LW in Juniors (most notably on a line w McDavid)

Kind of looks like we have a logjam on the Right side, so hopefully some of these wingers we have coming up will be able to play either side

?? Girgs in all likelihood wont ever be on a line with jack...so what does it matter? Even if he was on a line with jack..he plays the same kind of uptempo style.
- feetontheair22



Especially if Girgs isn't in our future plans...
I'd totally be ok with him playing in the top6 this year instead of Pouliot
He's not ideal of course, but right now I don't think we have anyone who is

Maybe he can score a little better & up his trade value for us?

- Bring him up and put him with ROR and Okposo, watch how quickly he adapts.

-Slowly switch him with Kane on the Eichel Reinhart line

-Move your butt(a$$) to the edge of your seat, and watch the beauty of creativity and speed blend together.

- Don't hesitate to ask for extra butter with your popcorn

"We will absolutely not trade Girgensons"
"He's part of our core for sure"
"Potential Captain"

Just some of the quotes I got blasted with after we drafted Girgs & I suggested we should use him as a trade piece bc he'll never be a 20goal scorer in the NHL


All that said...
he's a decent bottom 6 player
At least until he gets passed by some of the youngsters coming up

My guess is he gets something like 1.35mil per season for 2 years

I'll admit I was firmly on that train (locomotive?) During his first full year in Buf. The dude went HARD to the net and showed decent finish. The past two years he has just fallen down a lot and hasn't shown any of that tenacity. Maybe it was a system thing, but I think he's washed up

Getting a hooker so you can use the car pool lane is funny though

Here's the situation:

I've had about 4,000 calories to eat today so far. 5 big macs and some fries and a gallon of Coke. I did about 4 tire flips, so that's about 1,500 calories burned.

I can just eat a pound of strawberries and it's totally fine right? I'll just piss out the extra calories.
