    Roster Moves by the Wings

    Ahhhhhh. So what would it take for the Leafs to get Chara?

    Looks great. What the hell has Abdlekader done for this team anyway?

    Big deal. The basketball-headed midget can skate by a 36 year old playing on one ankle. I hate Tyler Johnson.

    Jurco would have to clear waivers.

    Imagine if the Oilers had Seguin and Landeskog vs the Nuge and Hall? That's a different team altogether isn't it? Tallon wouldn't have been afraid to do that.

    When Datsyuk returns, one of Richards/Sheahan/Larkin will have to play the wing. Looks like you picked Sheahan but he really has no experience there. As much as I'd love to see him center that 2nd line, Larkin's the best winger out of those three, imo.

    Also, the Panthers don't just pick the next guy off Craig Button's final rankings list when it's their turn to draft. They sort of draft for need. The year they took Barkov, he was ranked 4th behind McKinnon, Seth Jones and Drouin. They took him 2nd.

    People have been saying this exact thing for 3 years now. He meant Ekblad + Campbell + four other guys that are all "poor man's Hedman's". I think. Florida were a hard team to beat last year. Barkov rules. The Panthers will be a playoff team this year. Hopefully not at the expense of our guys.

    You missed the point. It's not that Smith and Kindl have suddenly become better players, it's that the coach is using them differently, so they're now more effective.

    McDavid with a dirty hit not called.

    Never heard of this kid. Was he drafted the same year as Larkin?

    Steven "Stammer" Stamkos hits 500 points in 495gp

    Anyway. I was facetiously echoing previous comments from Frank and Xym about Melrose. Kip already touched on the fact that Hairy Barry only coached 16 games or whaetever.

    But the psychological damage he inflicted on Stamkos took him at least 150 games to get over.

    True. I said "waiting patiently", not "ZOMGing out of my mind".

    Stamkos would have done it in 350 games if it wasn't for Melrose screwing up his development.

    Waiting patiently for Tatar, Nyquist, Franzen, Sheahan, and Richards to produce some offense. Things are going to get ugly fast if some of these guys don't get going.

    Bah. On the 4th line? Useless.

    Dylan Larkin on opening night roster

    Miller - Glendenning - Helm Can't say I disapprove.

    Helm's soon going to become the Burger King fry to Larkin's McDonals's fry. Redundant.Edit: Unless he actually gets used in the bottom six. Then he's an upgrade over at least three of those six guys.

    Maybe in Toronto? There should be an opening there in a couple of years....

    Datsyuk asked Babcock to play him with Abdlekader. No? So Pavel's the genius, not Uncle Mike. If you're even serious.

    Genius line shuffle by Blashill in the 3rd. And Zetterberg + Mrazek were gods. Other than that, pretty ugly stuff. Guys had no legs.

    True. Carolina home opener, lost the first game to Nashville. Wings played last night. If they can steal this game that would rule. If they lose? I'll call it a schedule loss.
