James Malm is the better player on the team.

Players around the league were saying he is the scariest to play against in 3v3 OT. We will see why tonight. Kid is super quick. I still think mcdavid is faster tho

its the speed at which he makes plays and uses his edges.

like Virtanen is fast, but he seems unable to stick handle at top speed if there is any pressure on him. its great straight line speed but asking him to make a cut or adjustment isn't really part of his game. Barzal and McD can fly top speed while having a guy on their back and attacking a Dman in full control of the puck.

For the lol I want Gudbranson/Edler/Jokinen on the ice together against Barzal. I don't think the 3 of them could pivot in the time it takes Barzal to go blue to blue.

I would really hope that's not the case, if it is it validates what I posted yesterday.

Thanks Carol

In regards to regretting Ronning? Probably not. He was a 7th round pick that was past over 100's of times. I'd prefer Ronning to Abols (clearly) but who cares. He is an extreme longshot. I was actully worried they would take him and pleased when they passed. This team and fanbase is too loyal to past players and always wants local talent.

For a change, let's select the best players and staff to run this organization instead of people with ties to a team that has failed for the majority of its existence.

I don't know. I feel that Oiler way of going about things leads to success.

I suspect, using my otherworldly deductive skills , that Pres was the source of the Dragon4u alt and was caught out on it. I always thought the Argue4u was the best alt around but hey, everyone's a critic.

There isn’t enough intelligent conversation in a thread where people actually like an all white uniform to bother trolling...

Now we're complaining about bans

TL got Pres banned to take the pressure off team management.

Agree with all of this, but it isn’t just sports teams, or the Canucks. Getting a job is as much who you know as what you know.

Could really use him on the coaching staff as the “pest coach”
