His glove hand is 100% better than last year. He's still facing at least 5-6 dead to rights chances every game... No, its not a mistake at all.

My point was more that Mason is a factor but not the main reason for Helle's success... You could just as easily say that Stuart being replaced with Kulikov is the real reason for Helle's success this year Or Helle being buddies with Dubnyk... anyway whatevs

I suppose it could... but seems kind of unlikely Helle stepped in and made like 40 saves his first game - I don't see how Mason had any real influence on Helle learning how to use his glove hand... that was his sole weakness last year I think Mason helps with stability yes, same way Hendricks 'helps'... but these guys are more icing on the cake than the real drivers of success

Oh... Steve Mason was the goalie coach that Helle hired on his own and worked with for the entire summer? I didn't know that.

Wow two teams that are completely off the rails in a row... hopefully the Jets don't take the night off - would be nice to see Scheif and Wheeler on top of the scoring race

Plus I'd take Noel Thorpe over Richie hall any day

Matthias back in... 4th line is now a plugger line - can't believe dano still sitting

Derek walker would solve this I'd also take jorden or Jackson at sb

Hugs ?

We all know where Laine scores his goals from and where he is most comfortable. But it feels like you just want to argue with everyone these days.

I dont think he's made a full season ever...? Be great to have him here just need a legit backup plan

Has Darvin Adams lasted a whole season since we signed him? Two things to think about with him and Dressler... really want to see Walters load up on RECs

How? We never play him on the left side anymore...

That is what happened. Correct.

Wow Vatanen for Henrique, prospect and pick... that's a sweet return for Anaheim

Feels like free agency should have its own thread with that list pinned and updated

Probably means they have a lot of film to watch... Medlock and Flanders are kind of automatic re-signings... I'd say there's a lot of headscratching over the D right now

Two things again stand out: 1. I agree Coates can be a 2-3 target player... 10-12 targets and your game plan is definitely 'off' or Lapo is overthinking 2. You still did not take time to look up journeyman.

Als after Claybrooks for HC... someone should get him Tim Burke's phone number. stat.

Two things stand out in this post: 1. Coates with the 2nd most catches is a sign that everyone else was covered not that he's on the cusp of being an all-star 2. You don't know what journeyman means.

THIS SITE IS OUT OF CONTROL!!!!

If I'm Trevor Harris, I want a firm commitment from Desjardins that they are bringing in receivers... Burris looked like crap then Ottawa signed a fleet of top receivers and he wins the cup... then they let almost everyone walk and expect Harris to just carry the load - pretty lame That being said, I do think Desjardins ends up with James Franklin...

If hutch keeps playing well he could get a 2nd/3rd round at trade deadline...
