would that be like us offering the 8th overall, Finn, and Brown?
Yeah, that's about right.
Though I don't think I'd trade Finn for Shinkaruk.
would that be like us offering the 8th overall, Finn, and Brown?
Yeah, my bad. Read his sheet wrong. Had 91 points 2 seasons before his draft, and 86 in his pre draft. That's impressive, but yeah, missed most of last season.
Get your shit together.
**** you man, I'm spending my time trying to catch up on this Brazilian kid.
Gary Lawless: Byfuglien and the #9 pick for Florida's #1? Chatter is out there.
Yup that sums it up for me too.Yeah, I said it after the meltdown, and I'll say it again. The problem with this club wasn't the performance of the core, it was the performance of the depth/youth. Once you got past Raymond on the offensive depth chart it truly was a wasteland that did nothing offensively, and wasn't good defensively either. On the blueline we just had too many guys playing out of their depth. Too many hard 5 on 5 minutes for Franson & Gardiner. Too many minutes against top competition for Gunner. Too many minutes period from fumble****s like Fraser & Ranger.
If we added quality depth players who have high compete level, chip in some offence, can cycle a puck...and then just one defender like Oduya who can replace Phaneuf on a shutdown pair and free him up to be more aggressive, more creative, we can be much, much better without this slash and burn tactic that a lot of people are looking for.
With that said, we definitely should have fired Randy into the Sun as his system has proved to be a drag on the team, but the core personnel needs insulation, not annihilation.
