True, but I’d still rather see late round picks used on more “raw” prospects who may have untapped potential.

I’m going to start negotiating like trump. He is a boss. Next meeting - “ if we get a deal, it’s on my terms. Because you are stupid and I’m handsome. Suck it client.”
Such a bully

Apparently it works for him

I only like Edler-Tanev as a shutdown pair


Offense is terrible and there isn’t a safe/reliable 3rd pair either

The bar was set pretty low last year , it is not difficult to improve on those numbers. You have players like Sautner ready to step in . Lets see how the first 25 games go and who is on the roster by then

He wrapped up Mexico before you had finished your morning round of golf. He is about to drop kick Canada into submission. RIP dairy industry

I don't really have a problem with either pick because they were overlooked thanks to being so short but are putting up points.

Manukyan** correct spelling. I think Palmu has a better chance at making the NHL then Manukyan

It's BC's fault for crossing the border and "stealing" milk.

You think? Palmu is close now. The chances Manukyan ever comes to NA are minuscule. Maybe if he is visiting Disney land with his kids in ten years but certainly not as a hockey player

No projected line ups today?

Sleeping . He is not the Dayhawk

IMO our defense got a bad rap last year from our goaltending being so crappy , better goaltending will equate better defense , so until Marky or Demko take a step we will continue to have sub-par defense

It is almost noon. I already went into the office for a couple hours at 6 this morning. Grabbed a coffee on the way home cleaned the house and still had time to screw around on here. I hate wasting days.

Sedin's set the standard for being in shape. They had to, they were slow.

- onesmallleap

if there was an actual defense that could limit the number of grade A chances maybe the goaltending looks better.
Hutton loves to pinch up and get burned, Stecher loves to chase the puck in his own zone, Gudbranson needs 5 attempts to clear the puck out of his zone, and I could go on.
