They have a weird camp with their trip. Think they have to get right business with their roster and not mess around.

Is there really any question JJ is getting that shot?

- Lunaion


It's probably peterka's to lose. Tuch and Thompson were a good pairing, but with Peterka or Benson they still didn't drive play.

New coach, developing players, it's a crap shoot. Short list is probably Peterka and Benson.

peterka allowed the line to produce more offense, but allowed more offense going the other way.

greenway allowed the line to play a more responsible game (63% xGF%), but throttled the offense.

That's what I was thinking. Especially with all the forwards we have. By my count and the lines below, we need to trade Krebs or he's in the press box until there's injuries. Helenius isn't playing 4th line under Lindy, maybe not even bottom6, but the only chance of this is he beats out Krebs and one of these forwards (Greenway most likely) is traded. Additionally, if a hole is opened up, he's still got to beat out Kulich and Rosen, who you'd assume are more prepared for a 3rd line role.

Peterka Tage Tuch
Zucker Cozo Quinn
Greenway McLeod Benson
Beck Lafferty NAK

- QuinnFan


Guess I'd just say Lafferty plays a lot of wing, so there are options. We're talking about a cheap 4th line and none of them have to play every night.

There also isn't much C depth in the org, so that gives Krebs some extra value.

Nightmare side is something KA does well. Keep him around, Lindy sits him most nights, and you're left with near worthless player a year from now.

who gets that spot on the top line with tage and tuch

quinn
peterka
benson
kulich
mcleod
zucker
helenius


I would not be quick to dismiss helenius

- homiedclown


I think it is JJP with little doubt.
IMO the opening is 2LW, unless that 19-Phenom

Should I care as a season ticket holder?

I really don’t care about the players being mad at the fans.

I didn’t chant anything, and I leave immediately after the game, so I wouldn’t notice the lack of acknowledgment to the fans.

Seems childish all away around…..

I blame okposo regardless, he was the captain and they weren’t pulling this without his blessing

- Boss34


Just another footnote in the amateur bullpoop that percolates from terry pegula's employees. it's so (frank)ing stupid.

Slotting in or expecting helenius to take the 3c spot is hilariously stupid. Equally or more stupid than last years 'one year deals and linear progression'

I guess I shouldn't expect more from adams though. When is arbitration for upl?

Overblown maybe, childish all the way around? Really?

Maybe its childish to pay for the tickets that pay the professionals playing a childs game acting childish

Not good to hear that about tuch. He was part of the problem last year

this might be bottom of the barrel stuff but what about signing Max Pacioretty for 1 year at 1 mil or less...

could be a good vet signing with tons of experience.... has not played a lot over the last 2 years b/c of injury, could get him on the cheap...

Im just saying if we are looking to an 18 year old to fill a glaring hole on the roster we will be setting the record again at 14 years

I think he could come in and be what Benson was last year. 3rd liner, 200-foot player.

Top 6 is going to make or break this team. Thats why another addition would go a long way. Push Zucker down with Benson and Mcleod and that 3rd line could create trouble for other teams.

Yea adding a last years Benson does not solve anything

Agreed they need to make a move for a top 6 forward or a legit 3c that has the ability to play up
