    Fabbri or Zadina?

    Middle 6 at best. But the poll is flawed CRL should have polled Q. Hughes vs Busty and see how that would play out.

    Fabbri or Zadina?

    So to be clear, we consider being "objective" to be a full throated homer for a flawed prospect.
  3. I wear glasses they're just not rose coloured as yours so clearly are.
  4. He had 1, 3pt game, 2 of which were assists... aren't you getting a little ahead of yourself? I know this is an abysmal season but don't set yourself up for more disappointment.
  5. Nail Yakupov had 3 GOALS in a game, during his rookie season against Vancouver... Busts can have bursts. Sat 4/27 vs VAN W 7-2 3 0 3 2 0 6 50.0 1 0 0 0 0 18:47 6:16
  6. Robbie Fabbri has made Zadina look like an NHLer for a night, he's that good.
  7. I see you have Larkin at 2C, my canary in the coal mine for this team is Larkin at 2C... if we get there we're ok! If not then we're effed. This is why if I have the #1 pick I'd take Byfield and not La-furniture (LOL)
  8. Colorado: 2016-17 48 pts 2017-18 95 pts 2018-19 90 pts

    Jeff Blashill History

    My wishful mind read the title as... Jeff Blashill IS History.... Damn I was excited.
  13. Comrie has a 100% save pct and 0.00 gaa... what's not to like
  14. I fully expect Blashill to finish this season... but the "you're fired" presser should be scheduled for 30-60 seconds after our last game... a guy like Barry Trotz has gotten more out of less than Blash, we need a coach with a highly structured defensive system.
  15. It's not what I think, it's about perception... the wings have been doing a good job of inventing then talking up positives for a scorer, who doesn't score and who's lost in his own zone. Packaged with what's likely to be a high 2nd rounder it may get you up to pick 8 or so.
  16. The answer here is simple... if you draft top 3 take the player you want from what's available. Then trade Zadina and a 2021 second to __________ for their first this year and draft Askarov. You'd get a far better forward prospect and a potential franchise goalie for a bust and a 2nd rounder.

    General Rebuild Discussion Thread

    That's possible, but would the org really want to put a 19 year old kid in net with our D in front of him and allow him to see more rubber than a highway? Sounds like a great way to destroy a kid.

    I agree and he'd be ready at roughly ~~22-24 years old to take the net on our second attempted rebuild.

    Tankathon is up to date with this seasons data... Ran the sim 20 times... highest finish 2nd, most common finish 4th, in almost every run 1 or 2 low odds teams make a huge jump and snag a top 2 pick. If that's the way it plays out, after this abysmal season I'm not sure I could continue to watch the next few seasons. I'm not a bandwagon fan but another 2-3 years go by without significant improvement the likes of Larkin, Bert, Mantha our older core players will likely want to move on. This next draft is critical... we need a top 3 pick or this is gonna get even uglier.
