The 91 of Ryans

Yep because Blashill can actually coach. He's just a bit of a project. Much like the entire organization right now.

@ChristopherReevesLegs You are necromancing these dead threads with a mighty vengeance. It's beautiful.

And with three and a half words, kickazz completely unravels the ethos of all sports-based discussion forums on the internet.

If I'm Karlsson I'm f*cking Ottawa as hard as I can on this one. As in: I'm doing everything I can to reduce their trade return. As in: I'll only go as a one year rental, then I'm hitting the wind as a UFA. edit: (then I'm signing with Detroit so I can help Zadina "fill Ottawa's net with pucks")

How bout: "No Henrik = First overall pick"

Jesus that would rule!

lol we're still doing this?

Maybe when he played PeeWee

Not so sure about that. Berggren only a few picks separate him from Veleno and he was taken ahead of McIssac. Smith, I sort of agree with me dark horse

LOL Let's compare AA to Gretzky. He's a winger. He plays the wing. The wing is where the boards are. The boards are sometimes where the puck is. As a player, you are sometimes expected to turn "not having the puck" into "having the puck" and this does not always mean "stand around until someone else gets you the puck". Clearly you have other idea's about: what is hockeys AA has a 'Jr B' level work ethic and he should be ashamed of himself and I'm on Blashill's side on this one.

I agree. Blash has a lot to learn. He actually pencils AA into the roster. If I were coaching I'd be healthy scratching that punk night after night until he won me some puck battles.

Helloooooo Jack

Trades are hard

I voted for Chowlowski because of his upside. Hronek is currently better. Lindstom is me dark horse

That was 09 Also, lol

Cool. You have to go back in time then, and uncheer for the Wings when they won in 08 with you boy Johan laying waste to the Western Conference.

Just for fun, where would he end up if a person were to rank the entire team? Probably the 8th best forward, and 12th best player. ? ?

On no planet does AA deserve to be 2C.

That guy rules!!

1985 Yzerman was basically Guy Carbonneau compared to AA right now

Cause if there's one thing we've learned over the past 2 years is that Holland doesn't make trades. And you're right, with guys like Tatar taking up roster spots, no way Rasmussen or Zadina make this team. On a serious note: Methinks Nyquist is a goner.
