That's completely fine, I don't really get into arguments about bottom pair defensemen they are really hodgepodge to be honest. So you're right, it was a bit of a cop out. He shouldn't be above a 7th defensemen on a quality d-core. Colaiacovo is terrible.
-
You must have beer goggles on. Weber does what he does, I don't love him as a player, but he sticks to what he knows. Franson hasn't looked to sharp and honestly, I think that has to do with offseason conditioning. Not going until the last week of August without a contract can hamper you mentally. Colaiacovo has been terrible for as long as I can remember.

For the love of god, get rid of Colaiacovo! - Edit - I do agree with you.

Reinhart: Fewer minutes in NHL or more minutes in AHL?
Rasmus_ replied to pi2000's topic in The Aud Club
Is he really playing any worse than Moulson. I mean if we're splitting hairs and while Moulson is a season veteran and quality human being, he's beyond slow in the teams structure and pace. How many times has he fallen. I'm a huge Reinhart fan. He really has no reason to go down to Rochester. He's better suited to play than McGinn. -
I will be watching the entire game. Let's see if Girgensons can spark O'Reilly. This should be a scrappy affair. Get it in on Bobrovsky early with pressure and he's been prone to bad starts. While I have questions with Moulson, and the defense, this roster is better than what they showed against a superior team in Tampa Bay.

Lieuwen is a solid call up for a back up. He's very "Chad Johnsonesque" to me. Ullmark definitely needs the time to work his way back. He could easily be competing in the NHL next season as our back up/fighting for 1B role. I've always liked him.
-
Totally agree with you, there is depth on defense and skilled wingers. I would count Bailey, Possler, Baptiste as at best 3rd line type talents.

New year, tons of firepower, still cant score.

What's changed is:
-
Ullmark was very solid last night.
-
Tampa Bay is one of the elite teams in the eastern conference. The first period's pace was significantly better. They're not rushing the net enough, but the pace is improving. I'm enjoying what I'm seeing overall. One step back, two forward!
-
Go Evander, Go ROR, Go Eichel!
-
The noise in the arena when Jack scored was the loudest I've ever heard it. It was so impressive. It sounded like Seattle in a Seahawks game, or someplace else. Simply electric!
-
Colaiacovo didn't look great IMO. I did see the turnover on Ristolainen, but I saw more good than bad. IMO.
-
They gave up the first goal and Robin Lehner was out of position. The game started out sloppy and the passing was choppy. It got better as the game went along. This seems to be a pattern from the preseason until now. Though a lot of that will have to do with getting used to each other. The standouts from the game to me were Eichel, Kane and Ristolainen. Though several others did good things.
-
That was quick. Collapse the zone, and Turris is wide open. Oi Robin. You need Batman!
-
T-minus 40 minutes! Let's go Sabres!
-
Still my favorite jersey ever. I love the classic jersey too! But the red and black attack was priceless! Pumped for the game, got my jersey unwrapped. I went with ROR for the first one of this team. Ready to sit back and watch Eichel versus Karlsson.
-
But the Flyers are in a completely different place than the Sabres are/were. The Sabres traded wisely and now have established a forward core going forward in the short/long term. Now it's about adding to the back end, because no one is going to compare the Sabres D Core to St. Louis, Chicago, Anaheim or several other high end teams! He's drafted: Provorov, Sanheim, Konecny, Aube-Kubel, and others. He had Morin and Hagg to build on off of, but he's definitely been building slowly.
-
He's building from the back forward. Which is the way to go!
-
Fixing the problems that Holmgren made in his last roundabout season in charge. He got a healthy return for Coburn, moved on from Grossmann, moved Pronger's last two seasons off the books and drafted very well in his first two years. He secured a solid back up for Mason who is an upgrade over Emery. He's done a heck of a job.
-
Awesome write up and analysis. I wouldn't disagree with anything said here. I prefer using Girgensons as a center, and I've liked what Reinhart has done on the wing. He's played the wall very well. I'm sticking with: Evander Kane-Ryan O'Reilly-Tyler Ennis Matt Moulson-Jack Eichel-Sam Reinhart Marcus Foligno-Zemgus Girgensons-Brian Gionta Nic Deslauriers-Johan Larsson-Jamie McGinn That's what I would love to see :D
-
Eichel across the board. McWho?
-
Jack Eichel's shifts from 9/26 (Second Ottawa game) - 34.35 minutes
-
Eichel, Rodrigues, Moulson! Nicely balanced. Guhle looked good until rocked by Phaneuf. that POS! There were so many things to like tonight. Mr. Lehner, shut your doubters the up! it was just a much better game from top to bottom. The hit wasn't clean, he left the ice, it's preseason. Enough of the clown garbage! He's a bench player. Literally, the bench. McCormick has more to his game at this point. He shouldn't be in the line-up over Larsson.

, being blown out of proportion. Media swooning over juicy conversations that happen behind close doors. *Yawn*
