Hockeytown0001 7,652 Report post Posted December 30, 2009 Eaves is a minus 3 in the games since scoring against Tampa on December 17. Then again, the entire team hasn't been doing so hot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miller Brew 0 Report post Posted December 30, 2009 (edited) To put things into perspective. Holland was looking at a couple of other UFAs before signing Eaves. There was: Taylor Pyatt - Salary $600,000 * Left Wing * Height: 6-4 * Weight: 230 * Shoots: Left * Born: Aug 19, 1981 - Thunder Bay, Ontario * Draft: 1999 - 1st round (8th overall) by the New York Islanders Stats this year: 33 games / 6-goal / 4-assists / 10-points / +12 Next up is: Manny Malhotra - Salary $700,000 * Height: 6-2 * Weight: 217 * Shoots: Left * Born: May 18, 1980 - Mississauga, Ontario * Draft: 1998 - 1st round (7th overall) by the New York Rangers Stats this year: 39 games / 7-goal / 7-assists / 14-points / +7 And our guy: Patrick Eaves - Salary $500,000 * Height: 6-0 * Weight: 188 * Shoots: Right * Born: May 1, 1984 - Calgary, Alberta * Draft: 2003 - 1st round (29th overall) by the Ottawa Senators Stats this year: 29 games / 4-goal / 6-assists / 10-points / +5 The first two guys are UFA after this year while Eaves is a RFA, which means Holland should get a draft pick in return for Eaves if he leaves to another team. I think Kenny made the right choice. Edited December 30, 2009 by Miller Brew Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll see if I can figure that out. Its not very good resolution though I can't figure how to attach stuff. It's frustrating. I really feel like an idiot now.haha Edited January 9, 2010 by zettie85 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aussie_Wing 354 Report post Posted January 10, 2010 Just realised Eaves picked up an assist on Helm's GWG against LA, NHL initially had Draper down for the lone assist. With tonight's goal Eaves is on a 2 game point streak, onya Patrick! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rivalred 630 Report post Posted January 11, 2010 Eaves is an excellent 3rd or 4th line player... Maybe a little bit of Maltby in some aspects? Helm wil replace Draper... Maybe Eaves is to replace Malts... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bdavis 28 Report post Posted January 15, 2010 (edited) It looked like he took a couple pucks to the chest during that PK (one after the other). Even after getting hit with the puck twice, he still cleared it. If he can play this same way come playoff time on the PK, along side Helm, that will be great. If I can remember correctly, the PK last year in the playoffs was kinda s***ty. Edited January 15, 2010 by bd2988 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
