They can do it! They need help, they need coaching, and some players need to be added. They definitely have some very good players on the roster and lots of trade capital to work with.

The only growth I saw in this game was that they held on to get one point and not blow the game in the 3rd period. That was mainly UPL. They started the OT on the PK and they never got going, they never had much puck possession time. I thought they played poorly in the 3v3 and they failed to create or shoot the puck when their few opportunities were there. So sure getting one point was an improvement for them. Having a good goalie gets you that. -

Yes agree. And regarding Cozens, he seemed really mentally affected by the slow start to the season and he was pressing to do more than he could. I think he expected the team would pick up where they left off but they didn't, they were still looking for a goalie and still looking at players, and before you know it its the end of November and they are not in it. This team, the players and coaches and GM, were all not ready to take that step - whatever they did in the off season was not enough. Cozens was really bothered by the bad start, and the crowd boos. He got emotional, picked a fight with the wrong guy, and then he suffered another set back. Next season is a fresh start for him. He learned some valuable lessons. He has a lot of work to do this off season but I expect he will bounce back and have a good season. But I do not think that Adams should burden him with the 2C, top 6 role, when he is not ready for it. Adams has the capital to acquire the much needed help at center. He better start helping the Core players that he unvested in. -
Congrats but how ? ? ? That cannot be sustainable. I have lost 20 lbs in the past 4 months and I am stuck right now. I am now doing weight training 3-4 days per week, walking every day, golfing twice a week (at least), eating better and less, and no snacks after dinner in the evening - just water. Feels good to be down one full pants size and then some. I cut booze and beer and wine to ZERO for 2 months. Now I have just one here and one there, only on occasion. I keep telling my wife to stop buying sweets and chips and stuff like that. Sometimes she listens. But I am kind of stuck now, and I still want to lose about 10 more to reach my goal - which is to drop another pants size. Right now I feel great, lots of energy, and vitality (if you know what I mean). I am sleeping so much better too, in bed by 10:30, and up and ready to go by 7:00 am. So even though I am stuck on my weight loss, maybe I should just be happy with losing 3 pounds a month for the next 3 months and I will get there by July, but the process has become very slow. I guess I am ok being slow and steady. My kid said the weight training makes me look thinner but I am adding muscle, so people think I lost more weight than I actually have. I am going to add yoga moves and basic calisthenics to my routine so that I can do it during my spring and summer travels. I travel quite a bit being retired - it is easy to over eat and over drink when you are away from home and not in your routine. Any ideas from the SS team on how to accelerate weight loss would help? My two sons, both who are workout warrior maniacs, told me to cut back sugar and really watch the carbs too. I only use sugar for coffee, two cups per day. I cut out candy and deserts, I might have a taste here and there. They want me to read labels and such - like what barbeque sauce I put on my chicken. They said sugar is in almost everything. But label reading is a level of work I don't want to do.

Why should Granato and the assistants be brought back?
Pimlach replied to LGR4GM's topic in The Aud Club
Peca had developmental coach experience with Washington prior to joining the Amerks. Weber already had time in Rochester. Both were poached from AHL because they are promising. -
Of your list of no shows, I thought Greenway was the same all season. He gets a few scoring spurts here and there, but he is mostly a defensive checker so looking at goals and points is not the whole no story for him. I also thought Clifton played well late in the season.

And yet Mike Peca and Mike Weber could not crack that group? -
NHLe calculator, good grief.

Me too. Cozens is just another kid that cares a lot, struggling to met the high expectations that come with a big contract. My only concern is what does Adams see and what will he do to make this team better right now? Will he bring in some valuable experience at center to replace Mitts? Or will he leave Cozens at 2C and have another extended tryout with his center prospects for a position on the NHL roster? -

Please stop. “We” do not run anyone out of town. We are powerless fans on a message board. That is it. -

This is drama. I don’t know anyone here that ran Reinhart out of town on a rail. Reinhart made the decision to leave on his own. Adam’s chose not to extend him longer in the first place. Adam’s chose to trade Eichel and Reinhart. Adam’s sold his core players for draft picks and a few players (Tuch, Krebs, Levi). The fans are spectators, watching and trying to figure it out. Cozens is not being run out of town Fans are acknowledging, correctly so, that Cozens had a bad year and his contract is a concern going forward. Adam’s made moves that deserve second guesses. -

Sure looked like Florida coasted to victory. I think Adams better see and realize that Cozens is playing like an average 3C. He better find a center to help this team get better next season. There is a big hole to fill. -

I’m watching and wondering why when it’s beautiful outside. Wish this was a 7 or 8 o’clock game I got 18 holes in today. Now I want to stay out until the street lights come on. -

Good evening Teammates, Punch checking in. Just had a nice afternoon on the golf course. Ready for a win. Muscle Weight -
Probably not, but he is not signed either so one can speculate that if Terry "drills a well" he might get him. Once you get past money, and convince Mrs. Brind'Amour, you get to philosophy. RBA got rid of Skinner. He will want some control of the roster, and he would most likely want his kind of players playing his kind of game.

Not yet. They have work to do. They have an immediate need to replace Mitts at 2C. (I dont want to debate about if Mitts was a 1, 2 or 3 ) the simple fact is we need a center at least as good as Mitts was because Cozens is just a 3C right now. We also need a shut down 4C that is a solid NHL level contributor, not a space filler. Kreb is not it. They still need that big physical defenseman that can play top 4 mins - Byram is not big, or physical, and defense is not his first priority. Sorry, I still don't get this trade. It looks like Adams cleared room for one of his draft choice prospects. They need a few more wingers that bring a two way game - get rid of Skinner and VO. They need at least one, preferably 2, tough forwards that can handle others team bad guys. The need a back up goalie if Levi is not ready. So 4 to 6 players depending on how our players develop over the summer. Mostly, they need a better coaching staff. One that employs a true NHL system that is installed in one off season. Fix the power play too.
