kliq 3,755 Report post Posted December 6, 2016 11 minutes ago, Jonas Mahonas said: Not so much, but he can score goals. And that's pretty much our weakness. yah? It is, but you put Nyquist or Tatar back in the AHL and they would be leading the league in goals. My point is, scoring in the AHL doesn't mean scoring in the NHL. I dont think Frk would be a goal scorer at the NHL level. I'm not against giving him a shot, but I dont see him surprising anyone. I hope he proves me wrong. 1 krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Richdg 267 Report post Posted December 6, 2016 Frk is a poor skater which is why he has been released and sent back to the minors twice now. he has an awesome shot, but it doesn't do him any good at the NHL level. he isn't able to get to the goal scoring areas of the ice. 1 puckbags reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

krsmith17 7,191 Report post Posted February 3, 2017 Smith expected back tomorrow night. A move needs to be made to make room for him, or we will lose another player for nothing... If it's Marchenko, whatever, if it's Sproul, f*** Ken Holland!... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We can't send down Coreau because Howard will be in GR. We need a backup... And although I don't think you're serious about Larkin, sending him down would be beyond dumb... He's having a down year, but definitely not a problem with this team. Besides, we need to shed a defenseman, not a forward. We're not going to run with a roster of 12 forwards and 9 defensemen...

krsmith17 7,191 Report post Posted February 9, 2017 Looks like Sproul is getting back in tonight, which is great news. Unfortunately though, Ouellet looks to be the man coming out... Jurco still in over Ott, and Mrazek starting, which is also great news. Blash seems to be making a lot "better" personnel decisions, I just wish Ericsson would have been the scratch instead of Ouellet... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like, you hold him out this long because his all-around game isn't where it needs to be...and you put him back in against this juggernaut Caps team? Maybe Ouellet's banged up. *shrug* 1 krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
