Datsyerberger 279 Report post Posted February 28, 2011 Dear Rafalski, get back ASAP, we need your even strength puck moving skills badly. Rafalski has gotta be one of the league leaders in making his team's fanbase rage both when he's on the ice and when he's absent. 1 55fan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HankthaTank 1,100 Report post Posted February 28, 2011 Could Penner be in the Kings lineup tonight? Meh, I doubt it. If he does, he won't have much chemistry with the guys yet but what's to lose other than to toss him in against the Wings? It will for sure be a sell out.

Guest Hatethedrake! Report post Posted February 28, 2011 I think we need to keep winning because we're only 10 points from missing the playoffs. The West is so tough we can't afford to let up. I think the Wings win tonight 2-1. We need to win at least 3 of 4 games on this trip. I know it's highly unlikely that we blow a 10 point lead but stranger things have happened.

Bert is back to it, yet again but I won't start flaming that before it derails. Let's hope these 2 great playmakers can get it to the Todder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would you rather he play and risk hurting his back further? It's just back spasms, he's not playing as a precaution so not to risk further injury. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You do know Jonathon F'n Ericsson is outperforming Bogosian this year, right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bogosian in a Wings uniform > Ericsson in a Wings uniform Strictly hypothetical but I am more than confident this would be the case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HankthaTank 1,100 Report post Posted February 28, 2011 A solid -14 for Bogo on a horrible team but a nice little stat I like to notice is the 10 more hits he has and around 40+ more blocked shots in 2 less games than "Big" E. Comparable point totals too so not sure in what aspect he has "outperformed" Ericsson in. Bogo with Rafalski although both right handed shots would be getting the same and probably much better #'s than Jonny. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

atodaso 279 Report post Posted February 28, 2011 (edited) I'm not personally sold on guys that have no interest in using their size at any location on the ice. Simple as that. i'm not either. but E makes under a mil and he's a 3rd pairing d-man. bogosian is not a top six guy which is why i don't think it's fair to compare them. would i trade stuart for bogosian? probably. (but i do like stuart, for now) Edited February 28, 2011 by atodaso Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
