Gonna have to settle for a Vanek return for now.

We all love ya, Lefty. It's all good.

I kinda like Blashill's phrasing, tbh. I see it as putting the ball firmly in the player's court, telling him he controls his own path. No unnecessary roadblocks; if he dominates the AHL next month, he gets called up. Wasn't the same with, say, Mantha, who was more of a project (IMO).

He never said when he'd be filing their nets, just that it's going to happen.

He's 18 years old. His skating is fine and will improve. His non-goal-scoring game is actually pretty good for someone who's billed as a pure sniper. I said as much pre-draft, scouts said as much pre-draft, Blashill has said as much post-training camp. He's 18 years old. You're trolling and I don't know why I'm taking the bait. -
Sorry, should've been clearer -- I'm talking pre-draft.
-
Yeah, it's definitely disappointing. I'd seen him play several times and my impression was he was NHL-ready. I'm not worried, though. Great skater, good size, good two-way game, showed well in training camp.

Sorry for the non-answer. In addition to not knowing much about the players, I'm not mentally prepared for the possibility of picking 8th. It's early enough in the season that I'm still in "We're gonna finish dead last and pick in the top three / We're gonna go on a Cinderella run to the Cup Finals" mode.

These wins are nice, but I'm still expecting us to finish in the basement. The big thing that few people talk about is how we consistently suck against most of the teams in our division. That's enough to set the ceiling pretty low, provided we don't suddenly learn how to beat those teams and/or we don't dominate the other divisions. To answer your question tho... I dunno. *shrug* I need to learn more about the players.

Rutherford is desperate. Take advantage of him, Kenny.

Sens are crushing the last-place Pens right now. I am not looking forward to the Pens being in the lottery mix. -

Yeah, they're really hurting on the back end. Currently: no Chara, no McAvoy, no Carlo, no Vaakanainen, no Miller, no Moore. Oh, and Bergeron's out tonight. Now, *you would think* that would benefit the Wings. However, the Wings have a proud history of finding ways to render other teams' key injuries moot. So we'll see. Not sure if serious. Either way, YOUR FACE is unnecessary. -
