Bryson and Power on the ice at the same time instantly makes us suck.

What message do you think it would send? You’ve made it clear he brings nothing to warrant his contract. If you want to make a statement then sit TNT for repeated toe drag into missed/blocked shots. Scratch Skinner for only giving effort in one of three zones. Scratch Power for continuously losing coverage and playing like a little girl.

He’s definitely overpaid but would you turn down money if it was offered even if you knew it was more than what you deserved?

I’d rather he be traded to a contender. He’s earned a chance to win a cup or at least play a bunch of playoff hockey. We don’t need to take a contract on in return. We can simply accept a very late round pick. He has always given 100% while playing for a garbage organization. I do believe had he not been relegated to the fourth line so quickly, he could’ve developed into a decent middle six guy. This organization screwed up his development because they were so busy tearing it down in his early years.

Mr. Granato this is not the post game press conference. 😂 j/k

Absolutely wrong thing to say in here 😂

If they stop saluting because they feel it means nothing to the fans considering how bad they are, it’s one thing. If its because the fans called for their coach to be fired, it’s another. It would be a soft reaction from a soft team with a soft coaching staff. They can do what they want but should look in the mirror at how easily they get emotionally (and physically) hurt.

Need both. Middle six forward who can score 20 and plays physical.

The last overseas game I can remember, Luke Adam had two goals if I think.

R. Johnson will surpass OP on the depth chart.

So what’s JJ getting for a new contract?

I would like a legitimate top four defenseman to play on the second pair with R. Johnson next year. Power goes to and stays where he will be in this league. A third pair dman.

Gotta get a better GM too. The best coach in the world can only do so much with a bad roster. They’re not good on paper, just a couple guys who had a good year at the right time.

You just said what I have been thinking. Glad I’m not alone.

Well, that sucks. I wonder if a player putting their hands on the coach like Kelce did is normal.

If his current assistants suck (which they do), why hasn’t he stepped in to fix some issues? Are we supposed to believe it’s more on them that it is on DG? KA sucks all around. Can’t get a good coach or assemble a roster. Players who are up for contract will play great. Players who already got their contract will suck. Fans will eye roll.

Not attacking the OP but none of this matters. They are way out of a playoff spot and only a few games left while being unable to put a streak together the whole season. Looking at stats like these do nothing to provide insight. The eye test says it all.

So we’re all on the same page, sell means everyone except the top nine forwards, top four defense, Levi, UPL, and all of our prospects. It’s ok because our garbage players will still land us a top four dman, number one goalie, and about two middle six forwards who play a physical game. Besides we could never trade TNT, Tuch, Skinner, Cozens, Mitts, or Power. They’re so good on paper 😂.

One of those games where the GWG was scored in the first period. 😂

Moving Skinner would require salary retention or taking in a bad contract. He’s overpaid when you consider how one dimensional he is. None of the other players you mention will return anything of value.

I still don’t understand why people get upset about shopping/trading a skilled player. Does anyone think trading a Robinson, Krebs, Girgs, Bryson type player would return something the team needs?

I kind of like that middle six. Replace KO with a healthy Quinn and we’re off.

Just saw Kucherov’s lack luster skills competition performance. If you want players to care then make it something they can care about.

“They’re a young team.”
