Too much praise from fans on here, Roger Waters was great ,everyone here is going to hell

hmmm where does Gaunce fit with a healthy roster?

I'd prefer Burmistrov in over Gaunce. unless Gaunce has some new found offense after his conditioning stint with the Comets.

I keep going back to trading a winger and dmen if/when we get a healthy roster.

I’m down for a trade but its hard so early in the season but maybe after 20 games we get our wish.

Griffin Reinhart 23, 6'4, former 4thOA. Someone has to pick up this guy.
- VanHockeyGuy

Not worth the extra contract we would use up. Trade away a contract maybe if a minor trade.

(from Kuzma's tweet - Carol's blog)
Practice lines with no Boeser for #Canucks
Baertschi-Horvat-BOESER
Granlund-Sutter-Dorsett
Sedin-Sedin-Virtanen
Vanek-Burmistrov-GAUNCE

okay, I'd swap Gaunce for Megna, but if Boeser is healthy, I'd rather him in than Gagner.

need another injury or trade to open a spot up for Gaunce.
- hillbillydeluxe

I totally agree 👍👍
If all r healthy if TG wants Gaunce in then I’d sit Gagner instead.

I apologize if that's what it seemed like.

Dragon is a quality, polite and insightful poster here. I really admire his diverse knowledge/experiences and respect his viewpoints.

Thanks Pres.cup!

Lol... i just spat out my coffee, well played. You are a good poster who posts multiple viewpoints and doesn't fixate on numbers, no scratch that... you're a great poster.

Gaunce is only allowed to be in Utica for the length of conditioning stint, 2 weeks I believe, before he would be required to go through waivers.
By then another injury or 2 will probably happen, but if not they can always go to 14 forwards and 7 defenseman by waiving Biega.
Benning will have to be all over the asset management situation that is inevitably going to happen.

No you...

On the topic of analytics i do enjoy the input for assessment reasons but its maybe 60% value overall IMO

Using the eye test & flow of the play & wins vs losses is what i base most of my opinion on & add in linemates effectiveness on the nights play.

So in the end data alone is too generalized but large sample sizes does give a better picture sometimes.

4rth line winger...

Gaunce Burmi Vanek

It is worth looking at . We should be moving Vanek at TDL for a pick so one out one in

Thats a good depth 4th line wow
Rolling 4 lines really makes more sense this year rather than WD forcing it without the talent he had.

Gaunce Burmi Vanek

I would be fine with making that line interchangeable. A 4/5person rotation to keep everyone fresh.

Yes maybe but i see no rush to get Reinhart being what he is prolly being a career AHLer IMO. Waiver wire pickups at this juncture r not needed for us yet. Contract for contract is my only reason to get him.

I’d take it one step further & sit who is not playing up to snuff & create more competition or for match ups depending on the opponent.

Ya. That was what I was going to add-on, but thought it unnecessary as it would go without saying😆

People said Weirchioch was too slow and Pouliot was a fire drill . Both have been decent this year. Like Green said it is like having 25 NHL players. Vegas has a good D no room for him.

It would just be depth and with two Dmen down already I would pick him up and put him in the press box. We only have 46 contracts according to Cap Friendly

Just another amazing trade by JB! Glad Brock is feeling fine!! Boys are playing great! Looking forward to tomorrow!


Thanks everyone!

Thanks!

You're on the verge of nuck4u territory with your unbridled optimism and annoyance dial cranked up to 11...



Thanks I advance for not thanking me buddy.

lol there's a strong chance they are the same person...

Goldobin was killing penalties today. Things are shaping up
