    Seider for Captain

    Smith must be protected for the expansion draft... he brings a physical element we don't have. Plus he can play, he's a legit 3rd liner 2nd line filler in a pinch.

    Nooooooooooo! More unwatchable hockey and prospect stagnation. Christ even being in Torts or Boudreau...

    Dekeyser's Value

    I'd let Kaiser Roll right out of town.

    Is that an attempt at a sarcastic joke?

    Not hearing Blashill's voice will be reward enough... I'm also quite convinced we'll hire Gerard, not Lane.

    Is today the day, the long awaited day, where we fire Blashill... please God, please!
  7. But only Europeans matter. This will be the draft where we do win the lottery... the draft lottery version of the make-up call. Then, in 22, 23 with top flight players up for grabs we'll drop max spots. #typical
  8. The Vikings discovered the Americas hundreds of years before Columbus.
  9. Yea it is 100%... yet nobody seems to be calling it out like last year when the Wings legitimately that bad and yet were accused of tanking daily.
  10. Man this team has a knack of Fing itself over with meaningless wins at the worst possible times.
  11. Here's hoping for 2 close/competitive regulation losses to end the season to improve the lottery odds... at least with the way Rangers ownership pissed off the league they probably won't be gifted yet another lottery "win". Maybe we won't drop max spots this year... FINGERS CROSSED!

    Thinking of Keith Petruzzelli

    I'm worried we won't even sign our own guy...
  14. This would be optimal... I'm quite high on Cossa... goalies are voodoo but at this point, I think it's worth a gamble with the Caps pick... I'd even get a bit more bold and trade up using the caps pick and our latest 2nd rounder or our own 3rd rounder. Also has anyone heard anything about Petruzzelli?
  15. Nope, not trolling... educating.
  16. 1. I didn't bring him up you did. 2. I also didn't point out every game he was dog s***... which was all but a handful.
  17. I don't have to root for him to suck, he already does. Oh and he's lazy too.
  18. I think that's been ruled out... I hope to win the lottery but I'm not planning how I'd spend the money. In other words I'm not actively hoping for something I don't think is possible... but hey I'll accept a miracle, sure.
  19. I didn't like the pick, I watched the player extensively in the Q, didn't like what I saw... I didn't like the cocky fill the nets comment. He's done nothing to wow anyone so far, which is what I expected. I only hope Zadina maintains enough trade value the next few years, that we're better off trading him than having him occupy a roster spot.
  20. I'm not looking forward to it... that's the current reality... I'm looking forward to the rationalizations and excuses in 3 years time.
  21. I approve of this message. You've really put some words in my mouth there... what I said is Zadina will still be a bust 3 years from now, and a number of folks here will still be beating the "he's still young drum" because they can't face reality.
  22. He didn't draft McDavid, he drafted a one-dimensional winger... I really wanted Hughes or Dobson, either of which would have been a better fit than a non scoring goal scorer. But I do look forward to three years from now when Zadina is still what he is homer fans saying, but he's only 24... sheesh
  23. Meh the truth hurts. Hopefully we get some actual elite at forward with Raymond and in the next few drafts that Zadina can piggyback off of... Or preferrably we can trade him for picks to a team that, like some wings fans, are still blinded by the hype.
