How long must we wait??? 

Our forwards do not have enough talent and we have these kids in Rochester that are really good. How long do we wait to bring them up? Hinostroza and Cagilula are not cutting it. 

March 21st 2022 is the answer or at least should be.

Leave the kids in Rochester.  Why rush them?  For what?  Muddle through until the end of the season, then give them a shot.

Ugh - i was at that NYE game.  At least i got to see 10 goals?  I once went to a 0-0 tie against the rangers that featured a single shootout goal.

That is Pegula Era Hockey versus the Bolts.  We don’t exist to them.  
 

I would love the see a win tonight just to show some life but I fear the slide to below mediocrity is not far away.

Why would a team that can't score wait that long? 

I didn't get to see much of the Bruins game, but from all accounts (eye test, others' eye test, fancy stats), they generated plenty of chances. Score a few more and they'd be sitting in the neighborhood of 10th in league scoring. I think five games, with a 3-1-1 record, is a bit early to shake up the roster.

I watched decent stretches of it - including when and after they went down 3-1. I kept watching after that point because they were playing pretty well. The score notwithstanding, they were very watchable. Which is a stark departure from years past, when I would just stop watching if they got down by a couple because they just weren't much fun to watch.

They are lacking offensive talent. Glad the hustle and work hard. They have speed, which is good, but the hands of stone guys sure put a damper on the O. Put me down for giving the kids a shot sooner rather than later.

It makes me so happy that this is a thing.

When was the last time this was a thing? Foligno and Ennis? Stafford?

Maybe Sameulsson? Sort of. 

Not in the way I was talking about.

Mine is the "kid putting up buckets of points in Rochester, when do we give him his shot" debate
