Ya, not a good call at all. Seems like a suspension-worthy hit. Head the principle point, leaves his feet on the upward motion

Naaaah, he's a Bruin.

Boston "will handle it internally" just like they did with Marchand's back of the head punch a couple games ago.

I'm not sold on EP being a full time centre considering the time he's going to be on the ice. I'm old school so still believe your centres have to be big, fast, and aggressive on the forecheck.

I think Beagle and Sutter's skill set are replaceable. So that leaves Bo and AG. Not that inspiring.
- bloatedmosquito

Dont disagree with this at all. EP is gonna be an 80 to 90 pt plus player but can he really hold up and have us as a top 5 team at center. I dont really think so but I'm a developer not a hockey mind so who the frick knows. Happy monday boys. I'll post something batpoop crazy later lol

simple fact , if Gillis was half as good as his supporters think he was, he would have been re-hired already , in a competitive league , talent would be given a chance

Just draft Lavoie, he is a top 6 forward that can play centre.
- Reubenkincade

I like Lavoie too, but dont think he plays in the show next year regardless of who drafts him.

Naaaah, he's a Bruin.

I only mentioned the players in the incident. I try not to get involved in the hysterical over-reactions.

That’s the thing about acquiring centers who will mostly play wing on your team, you’re paying a premium for their position without totally benefiting from it.

If Wennberg was just a pure winger like Sven, he’d probably be a lot easier to acquire.
- Nucker101

Yup exactly. Price is higher when they have experience like he does. Wingers are much more common.

I think they'll be in tough to resign all there up and coming forwards e.g. Timo Meir, Kevin Labanc, Donskoi all are set to get hefty raises.
Jumbo Joe is a UFA as well.

Plus, if they decide to keep Karlsson...I think they'll have to make tough decisions.
- dbot

Imo Big Joe and Karlsson are gone. Unless big joe wants to sign a vet minimum.

Naaaah, he's a Bruin.

Shut the f*ck up your team is in shambles.

It's a brutal hit and McAvoy deserves 5, a game and a two game suspension... MINIMUM.

Uh oh, here comes the brains.

Columbus just is out classed. Rask has been unreal in this series

I would like to see the Canucks develop a GM .

Right now there is a list of refurbished names that keep showing up and it is not really a desirable list.

I was thinking more of Brackett.

I followed every game and a lot of his public interviews . I think fans get too hyper over nothing.

The fans were screaming play the draft picks and then at the end of the year Lind gets on the radio and owns it and says I was overwhelmed by the size and speed of these guys. Fans complain we are not developing the young guys.

Ben Birnell gets on last week and says Dahlen doesn't play in all ends and another development issue is raised fans blaming management.

Most fans don't have a fuken clue of what is going on behind closed doors and have their pitchforks ready for blood.

Look at last week when I got into it over OJ . A lot of fans in here have no idea how terrible he was in his own end.

OJ will be fine , not norris level but fine nonetheless, without comparing him to Tckachuck or Sergachev ,he is on a decent development curve who could pay dividends this season for a young D-man
