Calgary was a bottom of the barrel team Monahan's first year. Next season he was thrown into the fire
- DirtyDan

calgary finished tied for fifth-worst record in a shortened season...monahan was third in evtoi/game (13:38) behind fellow centers matt stajan (15:58) and (14:44) which equates to a third-line center role...which is where cozens is starting this season

Welp, I had some faith in Grantato/Adams...that's gone.

Not claiming anyone despite the names on the table.
Ruots rotating in???
Cody Eakin over anyone?
DAHLIN AS A FORWARD!

Wtf is going on!!!

Finding 4 C's alone is a problem. Girgs and R2 failed there in camp. We're down to the 5th and 6th options in Tage and Eakin. When the injuries start mounting, this is going to get even uglier.

baller kaiser

This checks out, and I like (and miss) Mr. Kaiser.

Maybe Cabin will come out to play when the puck drops? That would be sweet.

Couldn't care less if they're in the playoffs. We watched Ror leave and win a cup.

Good on you then. You are in the minority though, the ensuing female dogfest here will be of epic proportions.

Already did, had mckissic incase Gibson went down but looks like his shins are alright so I dropped mckissic for booker.

Tis another reason Im skeptical on toney cause I already have Booker playing.

As well as Murray/Kirk

and Taylor/Pittman.

So many doubles

This Week doesn't look good for me

Not really sure why we're all dying on our selective hills on this.

Cozens will force Donnie's hand to play him more when Tage inevitably sh!ts the bed at C. Dylan will be fine.

I would be fine with Hayden, Malone or Girgs out of his element than Eakin. He should be option 9 by my count and therefore in the AHL or press box minimally.

I think we have expect one of the others and if we do get Wright then WOOO.

Arizona is going to be tough competition. And the lottery is a obstacle in itself

Terry knew what he was doing all along, he signed Hall to 1 yr as a distraction. He got his man in Eakins to ensure he gets to chase new shiny toys for the next few years.


My source says Eakins has a permanent guest room on the Peg's main yacht.

They say its for Robert but we all know its an ego play for Terry's masterful tank in '14.

Well, tell Terry I'm ready for this diabolical, decade long, master plan to take shape. I'm ready for the powerhouse team that he promised me.
