My thoughts exactly. How good will the team look when a good portion of the players have recently returned from extended absence? I'm not too sure.

Yeah, it sucks.

Actually, that's much better. Thank you. Spreading out every line is good in theory but in practice, it's a bit of an eye sore.

Sorry, he's a not a fighter. He's got a very physical edge to his game to go along with his 6'3" frame but he's still pretty lanky for a kid his size. Luckily he's only a Freshman this year so he has plenty of time to fill out and when he does... watch out. From the games I've seen of him, my favorite part is his ability to clear out the crease.

I see you're obviously on a quest to discredit the accomplishments of Howard but that wasn't my point at all in those statistics. Merely discrediting the assumption that he was exclusively playing teams with an inability to score goals. Btw, ease off the caps. It makes you look like a child going on a tirade.

You know your fans aren't used to an enforcer when they start calling a mediocre tough guy your teams mvp with the main argument being that he is a -3.

He's relatively physical but Nicastro is the prospect with a real physical presence to his game.

Just because a team is below us in the standing doesn't necessarily mean they don't have a strong offense capable of making a sub-par goaltender look sub-par. Here's a look at some of the G/G of the teams Howard is playing. I did it in reverse order because the statistics are most accurate from the recent games whereas there will be more fluctuation in statistics with older games. CBJ - 2.61(21st) CHI - 3.00(6th) DAL - 2.92(7th) TB - 2.51(25th) PHX - 2.54(23rd) ANA - 2.74(14th) STL - 2.51(24th) NYR - 2.71(18th) EDM - 2.72(16th) ATL - 3.18(3rd) VAN- 3.08(5th) COL - 2.90(8th) BUF - 2.69(20th) What the trend looks like to me is that Babcok dropped him in the fire too quickly and elected to have him play teams without as potent of an offense after struggling early. Now that he's gained confidence after playings teams with mediocre to poor offenses he's starting him against some of the better offensive teams in the league. Chances are he's going to face Colorado who has a potent offense so I think the next month or so of games might be very telling as to what he's really capable of.

We have one of the worst if not the worst offensive rosters in the league right now. It's hardly surprising that a team with only one first line player can't score goals.

Honestly, Panik has been the impressive one out of that top forward line not Tatar.

Meech & Lebda for Olympic captains.

I thought Lebda and Meech were pretty impressive tonight which is something I didn't expect at all. Another thing, what's the point of calling up Kindl/Ritola if they're only going to play a handful of crappy minutes?

WOW YOU MUST BE A FAN FROM THE 80'S. Incredible dedication.

Seeing it like that rather than just a list of names really makes you realize just how much we're missing. Crazy.

I hope they keep coming back it's pretty damn amusing.

Don't question him, he's been a fan since the late 80's!!! He's such a devoted fan he was here LAST year... when the bandwagon started. Devoted fan I tell ya.

Oh right because you've been a fan of the late 80's and you're no bandwagoner!

Man, York is such tool. FSN managed to hire the most annoying t.v. personalities possible.

That explains why you're so insecure that you need to come to an opposing team's forum to make yourself feel better. So basically, you're not a child, you're a jackass? Thanks for clearing that up.

If we can't score a goal in 5 periods, we're not going to score 3 goals in 12 minutes. Simple as that.

This games over.
