Griffins Calder Cup Playoffs Thread
ChristopherReevesLegs replied to HockeytownRules19's topic in General
Svechbro-NewHolmstrom-Svechbro Would be a a sweet line if we can draft the other svech Ehn was a guy Andersson really liked. If i remember correctly Andersson projected he could become a useful (probs 3rd line) 2 way forward. The offense hasnt come yet, but we shall see. The wings brought him over and signed him faster than i thought they would. -
Is it as dead as this place has been?

Whats wrong with adding a player who will compete for the last spot in the lineup? If Martin Frk cant be out Steve Ott for a spot in the lineup, then Martin Frk doesnt deserve a spot on this team -
Wayne Simmonds sucks Unless we trade for him, then hes good

ChristopherReevesLegs replied to Hockeytown0001's topic in General
The speculation I'm hearing is that Eichel (and the team) wanted Bylsma gone. Pegula sided with his team (understandably as Byslma sucks anyway and had a sucky season) and told Murray to fire Disco Dan. Murray fell on his sword, and refused to fire his bro-pal Bylsma. So they both got canned. Also they fired their director of pro scouting and amateur scouting. -

yup yup yup yup yup I don't understand what the concern is with signing 800K players like Miller or Ott. They're semi-useful, and you only use em when you need em. Other than that they don't hurt you at all. If Martin Frk outplays them for a roster spot, sweet waive the 800K vet. It's not a big deal either way, just an extra option. The organization seems committed to going more towards youth movement anyway. -

Let me preface this by saying, I would never speak negatively of the Detroit Red Wings #1 starting goalie Jimmy Howard. He is a superior athlete and fantastic goal tender. I will love him and praise his name always. However, with this sweep and Elliot's season... This may be an opportunity to move Jimmy Howard... -

Red Wings have signed Christoffer Ehn to an entry level contract. They must see something in this kid that I don't, he's being moved right along. Probably the next Joakim Andersson. -

Holy cow man, yes we are done if all youre going to do is misrepresent my arguments. I did not advocate signing Ott in order to waive him and you know that. And I asked why you arent giving Bertuzzi a spot in the lineup. If you wanna end the conversation just walk away man. Dont drag this into the mud. -

Bertuzzi as the 13th? I thought you want the kids to have roster spots? How does an 800K Ott as a 13th forward stop you from acheiving any of this? If you absolutely need bertuzzi as your 13, waive Ott. Hes a spare part. -

lol AGAIN, I did not suggest signing either. You're chalked full of straw men and sarcasm today. So we're not a better team with them, and obviously they aren't useless, does that mean other teams are better with them? They just aren't useful to us? -

You're putting words in my mouth again Kip lol but I guess that's all you can do when you avoid the rest of my post. I did not ask you if you were for bringing them back or suggest that I was. I asked you if you thought they were useless players? Because in your words: "We ALREADY KNOW that we're not a better team with Steve Ott" So the same must apply to them right? -

Nielsen says he likes Ott. I said I would be fine with coming back as an extra forward. In what world is that taking a roster spot from a kid? I'm fine with giving kids opportunities, but you cannot just keep plugging kids until one works. You're going to enter waiver trouble and screw up development of kids who simply are not ready. We already know we're not a better team with Vanek and Smith too. Does that make these players useless? -

ChristopherReevesLegs replied to Jedi's topic in General
lol personal vendetta? Your using sarcasm to avoid the point. We all have players we like or don't like. Again, what does it hurt to have an 800K Ott as an extra forward? You just want to keep plugging the Frk's of the world until one works out? What happens when we go through a rash of injuries? Keep plugging kids? You seem overly upset about a guy that would just be signed as a spare part. -

Jeez man I don't keep track of your posts, sorry. I was going off the post you made with the CBJ article in it, and you mentioned Bertuzzi earlier in our conversation. My point remains the same, how does signing Ott stop you from doing any of this? You just plain don't like Steve Ott lol -

ChristopherReevesLegs replied to Jedi's topic in General
I'm not advocating not playing him. I'd advocate for limited use though. If we signed him again, I'd want him as an extra forward to start the season. Your BJ's scheme has risks involved. That Gagner type we sign might not work out. Promoting Bertuzzi to the third line might not work out. If they do work out, just waive Otter or trade him or forget about him, whichever you prefer. He's an 800K player. -

Signing Ott prevents you from doing whatever scheme this is? -
Dude loves Detroit. Said it was his dream to play here, which motivated him to sign with us. Sucks for him the season went badly.

He was the best D-man available. I dunno if someone has passed him yet.
