  1. The Ravens need a real quarterback to play alongside Lamar Jackson. Imagine what they could do then?

    Play In Games

    Play in games are stupid. They only exist for extra tickets and TV revenue. 82 games is enough time to give everyone a chance to qualify.

    I hope Philadelphia burns to the ground. And loses another Super Bowl soon.

    I forgot your boy Jamie Benn. Also, is MacKinnon basically the de-facto captain of the Avalanche? He's technically not a captain. And who are the problem kids?

    And hire a witch doctor to exorcise the players who return. Don't want them to remember anything about this collapse.

    It's like an AEW roster. Vanilla midgets. They've been s*** since Larkin returned also.

    What Happened to Nyquist?

    What happened to this kid during the last few weeks? I realize you're not going to score a goal every game, but to completely fall apart offensively was shocking and disconcerting. Is it because as someone mentioned, Datsyuk returned, and Nyquist somehow let up? Maybe, but if anything, he should have had less attention on him after Datsyuk returned. But the two events do seem to coincide. Was it the line combos changing? I thought Nyquist had good chemistry with Legwand and Franzen, but Babcock decided to play each one on a different line (all of which didn't work). I think that contributed heavily to all three players struggling in the playoffs (thanks Mike). Is it because we played a big, physical team like Boston? Very likely, but that's not going to change. We have to play in the same division as them now. Also, his drop off started before the playoffs, so it wasn't just Boston. Or is it because he was hurt (the typical LGW playoff disappearing excuse) Always tough to know who is or isn't hurt because of how much secrecy teams keep, but that's a possibility as well. It does remind me of Datsyuk disappearing in the playoffs in 2004 and 2006. Albeit, Pavel was a better player at that time than Nyquist is now. Of course, I realize few very players played well for Detroit during the playoffs, so it's not just Nyquist. All the young players struggled in the postseason. But still, with the kind of play he showed us after the Olympics, his drop off was the most surprising of all. I hope he can put this behind him and step up in the future.

    3/28 GDT Wings @ Hurricanes (7:30pm EDT)

    Nah. They weren't getting anything important for those scraps at the TDL. I agree he should have sold but just to get "something". They weren't getting high picks for s*** players. I'm not sure anyone would even give a 1st for Kane.

    Copp would have trouble scoring with a drunken bar girl in Bangkok.

    So you don't think Lalonde is an issue?

    3/17 GDT Wings @ Penguins (6:00pm EDT)

    He had two or three odd man rushes. Not the guy ideally you want with the puck in that scenario. Then again, we only have maybe three or four forwards I'd trust on breakaways or odd man rushes. The rest are basically Draper/Helm.

    3/17 GDT Wings @ Penguins (6:00pm EDT)

    We could probably criticize every player on this team for something. In fact, we usually do. I don't expect Rasmussen to score more than Copp or Compher. I do, however, expect a 6'6 forward to be more physical than a badminton player. Rasmussen will always be expected to do more because of his size. That's just the stigma with being a giant. Just think of every large pro wrestler who never became a major star. Those guys get more flak than smaller wrestlers whose gimmicks never made it.

    3/17 GDT Wings @ Penguins (6:00pm EDT)

    Compher and Copp have never been big scorers. Their numbers this season aren't a big outlier. I realize scoring is up in the NHL from several years ago. So that's a counterpoint. Debrincat is helpless without linemates. Larkin being out hurt his scoring stats. He doesn't score even strength because he's small, soft, and overly reliant on powerplay scoring. Just like this entire roster. The powerplay is their offense.

    Rasmussen is a "bottom", if you know what I mean. A 6'6 bottom.

  24. You're not happy with Andrew Copp and his DPE scoring numbers?

    3/14 The Revenge Tour Begins GDT - Yotes @ Good Guys - 7PM EST

    Next year, the excuses are up. If the team missed the playoffs again, I'm fine with Yzerman getting canned (will never happen I know). Lalonde should be fired now.
