Veleno hype:

Plus I forgot to mention that I think we would get a better prospect picking 6-10 in '19 than in '20. So I would choose 6-10 pick in 19 + Lafreniere over Hughes and 6-10 pick in 20.

No, I mean if he is a bust. The Habs will take him off our hands. I have posted these before, but for those of you who are unfamiliar with him:

Lafreniere has been turning heads since he was 15. Like Crosby at that age. Think he'll be the better player, so I would rather have him. Plus, the Habs will offer the moon for this kid since he sounds French.

Average Jimmy at it again. Good game.

Take some Robitussin

Pretty much how I understand it too. You get 10 games at the start of the season to decide. Either he makes the roster.full time or he goes back to juniors for the year. The Q is not a minor league, you can't send players back and forth.

I am confused why you're confused about him being confused.

When did Eleven escape Hawkins? And why is she now chasing dinosaurs?

You're not wrong. Exactly the kind of thing I expect to see with young teams. This is where coaching needs to come in. This team is able to come back from deficits (younger players, more stamina/speed, gassed opponents), but can't hold leads (poor execution, poor coverage, poor decision making). They play better when in "run and gun" mode (when caution is trumped by desperation), but poorly when structure and discipline come in play to finish a game out. I expect we will be seeing a lot of this unfortunately. Young team, poor coaching.

Bingo.

Yes, multiple times. But this team has unfortunately blown some leads in the 3rd period recently.

Tonight? Unless we have a multiple goal lead. Like marital sex. Probably because we look so bad doing it.

(Including Karlsson. There's no such thing as an ankle "bone". It's a joint.) But mackel's right. Karlsson is not the same player. He is damaged goods. Plus he had an Achilles injury 5 years ago as well. The one part of the body that a skater needs to be strong and sturdy keeps failing him. Stay away. Someone is about to pay A LOT of money for Erik Karlsson: The Sequel. And we all know that sequels are never as good as the original.

http://kronwalled.net/ Confirmed. Anders Lee was "Kronwalled" Correct. I am so used to seeing his butt as a heat seeking missile, but I guess he does make some big hits from the front sometimes.

Yeah. Sloppy seconds are never good.

A. I thought Kronwalling was a hip check? B. He's getting suspended for sure. C. Is it worth re-signing Kronwall just to see him "Kronwall" people in between suspensions?

Yes. And your answering it garnered the desired outcome.

still applies tho

You do realize that there's another NHL team within throwing distance of Seattle that has a Big Whale in their logo, right? Although I have to admit that I would love for it to happen just to see this throughout Seattle. SO not B.C.!!!

Actually, Seattle will become the first major league sports franchise to go without a name, when ownership is unable to come up with one that doesn't offend at least one snowflake living there. Ladies and Gentlemen!..Oops...not gender neutral Take 2. People of Seattle! Please welcome your Seatlle..uh...Hockey Team!

Mostl thi

Meh. It's 2 games. Well worth it IMO. It's not like he hit an Avs player from behind and broke his neck or anything.

Mostly this. This team should not be buyers under any circumstances. If they are most likely to miss the playoffs, be active sellers, shop your assets. If they are legitimately in the playoff hunt, be passive sellers. If someone comes with a great offer, like Tatars last year, take it. Otherwise stand pat and ride it out.
