Brawndo Posted September 11, 2018 Report Posted September 11, 2018 If I was a Senators Fan not sure this would make me feel better.
Hoss Posted September 11, 2018 Report Posted September 11, 2018 I didn’t watch any of it but seeing “we are ABOUT TO launch” a rebuild plan doesn’t give me hope lol
That Aud Smell Posted September 11, 2018 Report Posted September 11, 2018 Yeah - you gotta watch it. I had to digest it in chunks, it was so bad. Bizarre.
TrueBlueGED Posted September 11, 2018 Report Posted September 11, 2018 20 hours ago, Randall Flagg said: I understand a spreadsheet could show a Karlsson decline by that much, but the dude's shot is utterly lethal, and he's going to continue to get first line wingers and first line power play time. It wouldn't surprise me at all if he's a consistent 30-35 goal player going forward. It would surprise me if he was a 40 goal guy, and if he was a low-20-goal guy. I'm in agreement of your overall assessment of Vegas as a solid team that won't be winning 3 playoff series again for a little while. Yea, ultimately I think Karlsson settles into upper-20s to low-30s. They didn't only lose Perron, but Neal as well. Schmidt just got suspended for 20 games. I like Patches and think he rebounds, but if he doesn't, that's a lot of offense that went out the door. I think the team as a whole played a bit above their talent level. I mean, almost literally, the entire roster had career seasons. I don't think they end up a bottom-5 team or anything, but even a drop from the SC Final to bubble playoff team is a pretty significant fall.

Randall Flagg Posted September 11, 2018 Report Posted September 11, 2018 (edited) The player they chose to interview him (and that they chose a player) was so bizarre. Sens fans like Borowiecki the way we like Matt Moulson Edited September 11, 2018 by Randall Flagg

Return is a draft pick Rumor is a 4th rounder and some AHL d-man. Boston gets a pick for a guy that's been rotting in the press box Edited September 11, 2018 by WildCard

I got to the point where they spelled Mark Borowiecki as Mark Borowiccki and stopped. Sweet lord, if you can't even spell your player's name right.. why bother?
