Thanks Carol! 5-1 TO (they score on their own net).

3/4 of the people here don't make it out of the first

I assume it’s a 4pm start (local time)?

Yeah I don’t think simulators properly reflect ball flight. You can get an idea, but there’s no comparison to actually seeing your ball fly outside on the range.

Ya for sure the SIMS can only tell you so much. I'll try them all again outside as well. But still leaning towards the Epix Max and Titleist.

And when Demko got lit up, and then you have Leafs and Habs coming? Has nothing to do with Ian Clarke (who I’m guessing is gone next season with the rest of the coaches), Holtby just isn’t a great goalie anymore, hasn’t been for three years.

That’s why Benning is the master of the stealth tank.

And yes, I totally agree

Dahlin was putting up 44 points in the NHL at 18 years old plus he’s 6’3” tall 210 lbs and a tremendous skater so he’ll be better defensively as time goes on imo.

- Pacificgem

I know you think Dahlin is going to Hedman-esque I'm just not there yet. If that was the case his numbers would be way better this year regardless of being in Buffalo.

A bit older yes but Hughes put up 53 points his rookie year in under 70 games and probably should have got the Calder over Makar.

If I was going to move Hughes for Dahlin looking to the 'future' that he may/may not be better I would expect more than 9 points in 20 games and -17 even on a bad Buffalo club. He should be progressing up bit more IMO

Hughes at 26 Games in has well over double the points at 22 and -15. Hughes will have a chance to get his defensive game in order as well...not just Dahlin lol.

I get the attraction of the big body and mobility of Dahlin and the kid is a stud but from what Ive seen of both players right now it's Hughes all the way for me.

Maybe...would have been just nice to see Green think outside the box and go with the hot goalie to see if there could be a streak to build on. Worrying about which goalie is 'tired' at this point is redundant. Play the goalie who is progressing and making the f'n saves lol

I guess the good thing about the Holtby contract is that it only cost 500k next year and 1.9 million the year after, if bought out.

Thx much Carol.

Yes Demko should have started on Tuesday to ride the SO high from Monday night...but Green being Green it wasn't shocking. Nothing against Holtby but he is not warming to Ian Clarke much as of yet hope that changes soon. But he's only been a Canucks for half this season so far so some patience required.

Holtby can GoFish with Loui. It’s DiPietro time!
