Sounds like you might be close to our Old Timers club too

There are certain tattle tale signs that give you away.

I think we’ve all seen him skate, snipe, grind, and punch. Just not all in the same game.

Jake can skate too. He’s got the tools just hasn’t put them together yet.

Small toolbox

They should move him before everyone finds out he doesn't. He said after his year in Utica he wants to be a scorer not a banger.
- VANTEL

Sure he can be a scorer but we'll still pay him at a banger rate.

Was listening to Ben Birnell on the 650 today . He made it sound like Dahlen was a bit of a Lazy F$#K. He shared the blame for coaching and management but he did say Dahlen definitely did not play all three zones.

He said Lind and Gadj looked good at the end of the year.

I find Jake is invisible too many nights to care about him. He does have speed and a good shot as the guys say , but he is falling on the depth charts on the team so his trade value will go down soon.

Unless he has a big offseason, I can see them moving him at the TDL in a package deal

From that all-time great 2003 draft, Patrice Bergeron is one of the only guys still competing at a really high level.

He’s not mean/gritty enough to be an Anderson/Wilson type

Virtanen is a nice kid. Doesn’t have a mean bone in his body. Why was he ever considered a “mean” power forward? Lol. He is an average sized dude that’s skates fast

I am not getting attached to him for sure. I think he will have a new address this summer

I am still going to say Jake will be part of a Ristolainen trade.

4 first round picks for marner? There is a decent chance the kid we draft next year in the top 10 is better than Marner by himself. Let alone the other 3 first round pics lol
- CanuckDon

But they would be picking in the 30’s, so those extra 1st are like high seconds... sounds like a good deal

The Drake curse is real.

Every trade does

People are up in arms right now calling for Bennings head because of the Subban Lucic rumors and neither one will happen

Some think Point could be the next Bergeron.

Man, Benning passed over him twice with the 50th pick, traded away, and the 66th pick they used on the biggest Russian baby on earth.

Obviously Aquilini saw something, hopefully FA can coach it out of him.

Point wouldn't be the same here, he would be centering LE and Jake.

He’d look unreal on a line with Horvat as his RW’er.
