LeftWinger 5,129 Report post Posted February 11, 2017 Not Watching, how many minutes are Mantha and AA getting? Are they being used "correctly" or are they riding bottom 6 with no PP? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
derblaueClaus 1,668 Report post Posted February 11, 2017 Mantha has 9:12, AA 11:47 ice time. So they don't ride the bottom, at least AA doesn't by any stretch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeftWinger 5,129 Report post Posted February 11, 2017 (edited) thats good to hear! Of course I'd like to see AA end up with about 20-25 total. Edited February 11, 2017 by LeftWinger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dabura 12,232 Report post Posted February 12, 2017 Vanek hurt. Appears to be a leg issue. Went straight to the locker room. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brett 1,029 Report post Posted February 12, 2017 (edited) cant score cant defend cant goaltend cant score on PP cant defend on PK cant forecheck cant win puck battles cant clear front of the net cant block shots cant fight really what can they do? what are they good at? i guess theyre good at getting injured and not winning games basically if AA doesnt score on breakaways we dont score Edited February 12, 2017 by brett Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LeftWinger 5,129 Report post Posted February 12, 2017 Done for the year is a bold prediction! But even hurt on IR, there goes any trade value... speaking of IR, capfriendly still shows Howard on LTIR, I guess they had to recall him to put him on LTIR...he's possibly done for the year!

Whether you're #TeamStreak or #TeamTank, we can all agree that we can't afford to lose him to a serious injury. If we're gonna make the playoffs, it's going to be largely because of him. If we're not going to make the playoffs, we're going to want to try to trade him. 1 derblaueClaus reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

poel 28 Report post Posted February 12, 2017 (edited) Man, what a boring boring game. Would drive me crazy to see them lose this one without beating the crap outta Dubinsky. Do something. Show some emotions. WTF is wrong with this team. I mean it's still a one shot game but nonetheless it's just blah... Edited February 12, 2017 by poel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably because somebody, can't exactly remember who it was, just gave him a huge contract extension. Hard to justify a 2 Million man playing for Grand Rapids just a few months after he got his contract.

kipwinger 8,754 Report post Posted February 12, 2017 Sure would be nice to have a defenseman with an awesome slapshot for these late game offensive zone faceoffs. But where would we find a guy like that? 1 krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
