You been watching a bunch of AHL hockey?

Curious of impressions. I thought Nylander has looked much better this year, but I watch one every four or five...

"The only players that didn't (register a point) were forwards Jason Pominville, Remi Elie and Zemgus Girgensons (who played in only one game) "

One is friends with Botterill, and the other should be waived. Keep Smith

Nope, just hearing the same interviews as everyone else. They always toss a half-compliment towards Alex and say Smith has been the better player and deserves the opportunity.

I believe (but am not at all sure) that we need to make another move when Eichel gets back? Or are we copasetic

I've seen two live games and Nylander has looked good, but not overly impressive...smith was in that latter category...bailey looks like he's a tweener as in a man-amongst boys on many occasions, but just not enough that will get him into the nhl on a permanent basis...

wouldn't be surprised to see him be part of a trade
