First of all, you're obviously unaware of why I made the comment that I was a CEO. I'll give you a pass on that. If I was actually a CEO, yes, laying out the facts and the reality of a subject matter, is how I would communicate.
- MJL
Your CEO comment is stupid anyway cause NO ONE on here EVER said that they were a CEO you dingbat!

maroon was causing problems and had his own issues. He was sat down and talked to a few times by Holmgren. He didn't take the advice and had to be moved.

He shoulda listened to Homer. What a maroon!

Under, but close, they’ll be in the 28-30 range

People are underestimating how bad this D group is. There is no legit #1 nor a legit #2. Sanheim is a generic 2nd pairing guy, York is still a question mark and the rest are a combo of 3rd pairing players and borderline NHLers.

If they were to move Hart before Christmas, they could easily finish bottom 3, especially if any of their top 4-5 forwards miss any significant time.

I think they could package hart and konecny for a 4th rounder. Coots will be harder to move. Now that Atkinson is likely in the morgue all of that should make us finish last and get the 3rd overall. Man I wish we had done this last year for Bedard but we didn’t get rid of CF in time.

I sincerely hope that is sarcasm about Hart and TK fetching a 4th rounder.

Hart= 2nd round pick and mid level prospect.

TK= 2 1st round picks +some or 1st round pick 2nd round pick and a high end prospect.

Myers was a rookie. Ghost barely played. Who kept Ghost out? Just Braun?

I don’t have go back and watch it. We beat Boston 4-1 in the round Robin.

You’re trying to convince me after a good rookie 50 game season, because Myers was supposedly “exposed” in the only playoffs he’s ever apart of, that was it for you? You knew he was gonna be bad. Myers basically kept Ghost out of the line up and was relied upon heavily next to Sanheim on the second pair all through out that 2020 run.

I just don’t believe you.

- SuperSchennBros


The round robin was not part of the playoffs imo. Hence why I said isles. Keep reaching. Boston then feasted on the flyers. As did other teams.
You keep bringing up ghost like it matters. Moot point when looking at myers defensive reads.

What does Boston have to do with anything if you’re not talking about the round Robin? It was you who said in Myers only playoff appearance he was exposed and you knew he wasn’t going to be good from that time forward. Ghost is a factor considering he was scratched a lot during that playoff run. Ghost played 5 total games of 16 in that run.

Yeah, I don't even count 2020 as a playoff run. The round robin was basically an exhibition and once the REAL games started the Flyers struggled. The Habs outplayed them for much of that series and Hart stood tall! The Isles were clearly the better team in that series. Timely scoring (I think the Flyers won 3 overtime games) and Hart somehow got that series to 7 games.

The question was rhetorical. I’ll specify that next time, my bad.

I know, I was just adding my .02 about that playoff run to the other guy cause I don't really care to join the conversation.

Not I didn't. I specifically talked to the other guy cause he mentioned the 2020 playoffs and I added my .02. I have no interest in joining the Myers discussion cause it's been beaten to death.

I said watch the isles play. Hence my previous statement as when I really started to question his reads in the playoff series. Boston and isles first teams to expose him. The rest then followed suit. I didn’t say no good. But it was that series that his is and d reads weren’t looking good. I’ve stated multiple times before the kids has a lot of natural gifts. His positioning and reads are why he is not a regular.

Was also then I started to question why he wasn’t drafted. And why didn’t Calgary jump to sign him when he was invited to their camp.

Two positives. We haven’t been scored on 4 times yet and Hathaway gets Nic D off the PK.

I’ll ask again, why do you keep bringing up Boston? What does Boston have to do with your realization in the playoffs that Myers was a bad play. I understand the Islanders side of things. You keep bringing up Boston which makes sense…especially because expose everyone.
