  1. Sure. Which told the rest of the players in the league how he operates. Terry has had a lot of bad contracts, maybe he should let someone else run the team?
  2. I guess our plan is to lull Vegas to sleep, then score 3 quickies.
  3. Terry has to carry the stain of the Eichel surgery decision. He told the entire league that a player he signed to a long term extension as his cornerstone was not worth the risk. ROR was honest and he got shipped out. Terry has a wonderful reputation.
  4. He won’t spend a dime to help them. He doesn’t know what to do next.
  5. Better than fast food golabki, frozen golabki, and canned golabki.
  6. Samuelsson stinks. It’s incredible that he cannot play better.
  7. I think you are describing either not caring or just giving up.
  8. They are back to the way they started the season. Like they don’t know each other or what to do.
  9. The playoff season ended before the leftover turkey was consumed.
  10. I’m dropping the stream a lot. Wi-Fi in a basement is not great.
  11. Good evening Teammates, Lets see if they can avoid dropping 3 in a row somehow.
  12. Adam’s gets an F for much more than acquiring the 4th liners. They are not the problem at all. It’s the players they expected to be 1st and 2nd liners that are. Ruff gets an F for more broader problems than utilization of the bottom 6. He doesn’t have enough to work with because the players Adams counted on to step up (Power, Cozens, Samuelsson, Quinn, Peterka) are not delivering enough. Peterka has been very good at times and is now becoming invisible, hockey gets harder after December.
  13. Jagger - a young prospect, but they say he likes to party a bit too much. Bennett - a seasoned veteran but he can still bring it.
  14. Replete with errors. Jeff Skinner? UPLs record is wrong? Cozens pivotal play? Levi starting for Buffalo?
  15. My take: Zooker - A. He will be gone at the deadline and in pursuit of another shot at the cup, and he will continue to play hard to show another team he deserves it. After that he is never coming back. McLoed - C+, could be a higher grade but Lindy cannot stop the shuffling. Beck - C, he is what they said he is and they chose to pay a lot for it. Fast and he hits but no fight and not an angry player. NAK and Lafferty - C- each. 4th liner guys, NAK was showing something for a while, then he got benched, could be hurt. Reimer - C- Again, he was a twice waived goalie at the end of the line. Good soldier and not at all well supported. Gilbert - C He is what most of us thought, and 8D that adds a physical side. Big and tough but not an everyday NHL player. Ruff, Appert, and the rest of the holdovers - F. The product on the ice is not even close to better this season, its worse. The losing streak was hideous. The home record and the power play are still terrible. All of this is on this coaching staff and the front office. Adams - F- What else can you say about the worst GM in team history? 1. The "exhaustive coach search" was a farce and was the start of the bad off season. Another example of TP and Adams looking for an easy band aid. Assigning Appert and a few of DG's misfits to Ruff's staff was a red flag. They are all there because they are on contract, it is about saving money. The lucky one is the video coach guy that they fired, he got to leave. 2. What GM is ever that proud about retooling his 4th line? Only Adams. 3. Buying out Skinner and not bringing in a proven NHL top 6 forward show us again that he is not capable of making a big deal. He simply cannot pull the trigger on a big trade. 4. Look at our center spline. Really look at it. How did they do in that last four minutes in Colorado? Now think about why Ruff moved both Cozens and Thompson to wing this season. Think about why Kulich, a winger in the AHL, is taking critical D Zone face-offs against Nathan MacKinnon? But hey, we have cap space to sign our young players. 5. Who is wearing the letters? 4 guys alternating the "A"s just screams of Adams. Does any of it make sense? 6. Press Conference: Why hold a press conference if you are going to show up looking like a guy off the street, smirking and eyerolling and wise cracking, and worst of all blaming the "destination" for your inability to improve your team despite possessing coveted resources like Eichel, Reinhart, and more. He is the joke of the NHL. In summary, I refuse to give hard workers like McLoed and Malenstyn the failing grades, no real GM thinks these two guys are gonna turn this sinking ship around. This GM is unqualified and way over his head.
  16. Pegula has destroyed my team and the brand. That’s all I know and it is a fact.
  17. Sone interesting options tossed out. Does Adams have the stones for a big deal? Maybe that is why he acquired a guy named Jagger?
  18. Anyone notice Peterka getting less ice lately? Ruff did not use Peterka, Quinn, Benson, Krebs and Lafferty for much of the 3rd period versus Colorado. Kind of hard to win in Colorado’s thin air when half your forwards are benched.
  19. Byram is playing better overall as of right now. Power is still a compelling prospect. It’s tiring watching him play so soft at times. His natural size will support considerable strength, but will he ever get the mindset to use it? That’s the gamble. He probably won’t hit peak years until 27-32. The peak could be worth it.
