    I'm not saying trade him as soon as possible. We've got plenty of time until the trade deadline forces us to make a move, which gives jimmy time to regain his form. In that time, one of the goalies will have to miss a game for one reason or another, I'm kinda shocked monster has stayed healthy this long... Knock on wood. But if/when one of them goes out, we don't HAVE to call up baby goalie, but hes probably the most nhl ready option we have. We could always give McCollum a shot, we used a first round pick on him and hes only played 1.5 periods of NHL hockey.( I think Wed have to sign him to a 2way contract) Coreau's not really an option. But he played well in camp and preseason, AND he's huge (6'5'' 207 lb). Unfortunately, for whatever reason he's doing horrible in toledo, And honestly Mrazek could become the starter someday. Why not let him play a couple and see where he's at, He's splitting time in g.r. with McCollum anyway, so Why not? he's going to be the backup within the next few years anyway. And If he's clearly not ready, send him back down and lock Gus up for another year or two until he is. but if they wait and find out Mrazek's ready in camp then we either wasted money resigning monster, or let him walk when we could've bettered our situation now. Know what I'm saying?

    Ahhhhh. Sorry bud, I wasn't trying to nitpick, i had drank a couple more than a few, so I was a bit belligerent. Ha. But yeah it was choppy. A lot no calls, a lot of little shots taken after the whistle, their goons running at our stars. You know, East coast Rivalry buildin' stuff.

    If we win again, I'm gonna need you to keep predicting this. He did. Then corrected himself right after.

    If youre a wings fan, you know very well thay wasn't the worst of the year, remember the Ottawa game.Pav. Hacks. More hacks. Elbows. dangerous high hit on helm .... ... It was bad. But by far not the worst. It's how it goes, the refs miss calls or make bad calls every game. Sometimes it helps you, sometimes it hurts you. I would've liked the generous calls to have came against a better/dirtier team. But you cant win em' all. I actually watch it every night.The dull repetitive nature of it helps lull me to sleep, like white noise. Some prefer waves crashing on the shore, some prefer rainstorms, I prefer shoddy "sports reporting." I was actually watching just to see if hed make the top plays list to see it on a big screen again. That save was the bees knees, yo. Ha. His style reminds me of a less acrobatic, more structured Hasek. Edit: spelling mistakes. And... Here's to hoping monster keeps it up long enough to drive his trade value through the roof so we can package him with some dead weight and get a top d man. Or at least long enough for jimmy to wash off whatever funk he fell into.

    BREAKING NEWS!!! ESPN FEATURES HOCKEY!!! sportscenter had monsters save as the #1 top play. Shocking that they had hockey on the countdown at all, but it was #1. AND the showed a beautiful behind the back pass, between the legs goal in college(I think) hockey.

    Ehhh. I dunno about giving him the winter classic. Defnitely play him until he loses. And if he doesn't lose before then, fine, play him. But thatll cause wayyy too many problems, and theirs already enough articles being written about a "goalie controversy," you don't want jimmy to lose all faith in himself.

    Trying to look good for the cameras instead of making the ugly saves. Those cameras are gonna make monster look good, he's made some acrobatic ALMOST hasek-esque saves since theyve been filming.

    I get the feeling hes having a hard time getting into regular season games, he's made an all star team, now he has to prove they can win it all in front of him... He's just looking too far ahead. Edit: That or he's ridiculously over-stressing about the Olympics.

    The dudes got a low cap hit and scores 25+ goals for us every year.Yes. He has long periods where it doesnt seem like he does anything, but when the injury bug hits the people around him he steps up. He's on the first line, in a lineup without datsyuk, and Zetterberg and he's keeping us competitive in games. I'm worried about what'll happen when he's 35+, but I like him. Personally And I'm glad we have him.

    Please play monster as long as he's winning. Don't play jimmy till Gus loses. That behind the back glove should be the save of the year(regular season). Seriously. Amazing.

    I think nyquist has been better.Tatars been the trigger man for us, which we need. But nyquists two way game is already one of the five best on our team. I didn't think hed be this good, especially already... But im beginning to believe in your name. Edit: spelling.

    Tatars been amazing for us. Four goals in two games. Awesome.

    It looks like he's coasting, but that's Berts full speed.He has awesome hands and size/strength, but even in his prime he was the slowest person on the ice.

    Without d&z, our powerplay looks like absolute garbage. Horrible, nasty, nasty, hot, steamy garbage.

    I have this feeling nyquist is gonna be elite in a few years. You can tell how much he tries to emulate datsyuk. I'm glad he's finally up for good, he needs to learn as much from z&d as long as he can. Hes a puckhawk. His backcheck is second only to dats, already.

    Ha.I stay away from lgw after a loss. Its depressing to see so many people give up on them and be disrespectful to the entire organization. But the sky is indeed falling, and you should take cover. Ha. Its easier just to laugh at all the negativity, honestly.

    Lundqvist, Rangers agree on extension.

    Holy hell. Trade for some goalie prospects, call anaheim, why in the world give your 30 whatever goalie a 7 year contract for close to 9 mil. Well spent, for now. Two years from now ill say otherwise.
