I thought that too . Bo showing everyone this is my team. Very little talk about it seeing it was off camera but Shorthouse made sure to mention what Bo did.

It was a good moment.

Just send him down, and call-up some other dude to keep LE and Fatburger company in the press box.

He can continue developing chemistry with Sven and then both can eventually get called up once Green realizes that having 2 centers who can’t make plays for wingers in your bottom 6 is a dinosaur strategy

I think he will play Friday and Leivo or Ferkland gets the hook

Bigger handfuls, opening his mouth wider? Maybe put some dill seasoning on it?

Oh and always having floss for afterwards

Are you trying to teach him hockey or be a hooker?

I don't think Ferland will be healthy scratched, Levio I could see though.


Gonna be interested to see the lines once Roussel is back, especially if the forwards are all healthy. Feel like Leivo and Jake will be fighting for playing time since neither is used on the PK.

Yeah I don't think Ferland is a scratch but the Leivo Luster is rubbing off quick.

Someone needs to be traded when Roussel comes back. Schaller, Motte, Leivo, Jake are the candidates that make the most sense to me. I would guess JB is watching those guys closely right now.

Because of the cap or roster space?

I listened to most of the RJ interview also there was no real surprises in what he said. It seemed like they were trying to lead him into saying that Lind was one of the outstanding surprises.

I bet his real answer would have been "The stars this year are me and Jim . We built a hell of a team"

His answer on OJ was a pat answer. If they are trying to make everything positive it would not be smart to say he has looked like sh1t most of the year.

OJ had a very good game last game but for the other four yikes.

I'll give it a listen tonight.

RJ does tend to be pretty sunshine and roses when talking about the Comets prospects.

Both, but more the roster space.

roster space is no problem, Gaudette should be sent down for top line minutes in the AHL. And fans are begging Benning to waive and send down LE.

So Green has easier choices for line mates.

This year he might have a good reason to be excited. Too early to say for sure but they do look good

He doesn't seem willing to. I know it's good to have depth for injuries, but having Goldy, Baertschi, Eriksson and Gaudette all playing in the AHL plus Schaller/Motte scratched in the NHL seems like a bit much.

Youre just sour he said that Raffy has to round out his game and needs to make better decisions in the neutral zone and needs to be better in his own zone.

Maybe they don't want to send Loui down to stir the apple cart?

Johnson says they are not playing at full capacity yet.

It’s weird how some of our fans are uncomfortable with having legit depth

"...he said ‘Billy, never try to win a trade. Don’t try to screw the other guy over. Make a fair trade and you’ll get more deals done,'" @mnwild GM Bill Guerin said of what he learned from Jim Rutherford.

19. One scout who has seen Dallas a few times: “The way they grind you, they are built for the playoffs. That’s why they gave St. Louis so much trouble. The problem is, you have to get there. The regular season is not like that.”

I noticed that in 31 thoughts and immediately thought of JB and the JTM trade.
