I recall some being high on him during his draft year, but can't say i've paid attn to him since.

In JB we trust.

Dorsett and Gudbranson have inspired me to open up my very own lumber yard!

Thanks ASL!

Not a Stecher hater.. I think he could be a good bottom 6-7 d-man if he was properly developed, in a development league............oh, right I forgot the NHL is now considered a development league by some.

The same for Hutton and Virtanen, but what does my opinion mean...SFA.

- Makita



I agree ideally Stecher is a 3rd pair Dman.
Hutton seems to have plateaued but idk if he can still improve.
Until our top 4 D is set for the future via the draft or whatever i can see Hutton as maybe trade bait this TDL or later even.

Hey sunshine, I'm going to get on board with your optimistic outlook, after a quick calculation the team only has to go 42-30-1 to get into the playoffs if the cut is 96pts.

Totally doable for this underrated, juggernaut group of high end professionals...Playoffs Baby...yeah, believe it, playoffs baby

Well we do play the Alberta teams 6 mire times

How do u like it if we add Kane & Gadjo develops into a 3/4th liner?
Size & toughness starts to look pretty nice imo.

Arizona still hasn't won a game, I think they're doing it to make Tanner look even worse.

What about BB and Tanev?

Tanev at +7 and Brock with 6 pts in 7 games. That kind of impresses me.

I do not believe that to be possible my friend, regardless of his guarantees, opinions, rants, stupid political references there is no way he can look worse than he already does.

He has nothing over Esplen, Cloutier or Matt Berry, he's one of the same.

No doubt & i wasn't rushing him along.
He needs to improve his skating to an NHL level still but i like the rest of his game & agree he his at least 2yrs away from making the team.

Tanev has been super steady, but we're used to him.
i like Guds snarl and think that's been missing on the back end for some time.

Does anyone else recall this??

Yes, once, I remember him shying away from rough house confrontations.

It's a great move.
Quite sneaky.
While the other guy is looking to tie up, he flies in there looking for a one punch KO.
Vet move.
