Goalie

Like here? 2 hours from home?

Spacek probably projects more to be a RW in the pros. He's pretty small actually. More winger I think. Not sure why ppl list Connor as a center when he basically has played wing his entire hockey career outside of 4 or 5 games with system less Michigan

So did I. I think it was on the radio. Not sure but ppl on another site specifically mentioned it.

Why? All indications are he will.

According to heisinger who spoke about him last night it was due to playing with his brother and he seems to think once UND is done... Poolman signs

Final 8? Sure Balor. Joe. Dillinger at number 10. I'll so Omega eventho I don't think so but sure Angle. Terry Funk (it's in texas) and I honestly have no clue DDP I'll say and Hall or Nash.

@FrostyWinnipeg you got a death app or something always so quick.

Yes. Enstrom also. So he kept the 2 best d men, our captain and 1 of the best 2 way centers in the league, and Pav Stu and Thor (inexcusable there) but for the most part... Keeping Buff Enstrom Wheeler and Little was the right thing to do.

Stafford doesn't exactly have the history Carter has tho, Stafford was a pretty good solider in Edmonton and Montreal for that matter, it's just last year he was a bit of headcase, Carter has been one since he got in this league. It's a slightly different situation there.

Pearn wasn't even brought in at the same as Noel, he was brought in the year Noel was fired.

Only Pav Buff Stu Wheeler Little and Thorburn remain from that 2011 team. The rest are either elsewhere in the NHL (Ladd,Hainsey,Fehr,Burmi,Bogo,Kane) or out of the league and game entirely.

He's gonna be this year Chychrun, by that i mean someone is gonna get him later then they should.

Problem with Czuczman is he's on an AHL contract only... they'd have to sign him and then he'd have to clear waivers and theres a chance that perhaps he doesn't.

Our D depth sucks, the rest of the depth is fine... Only Laine Scheif Ehlers,Morrissey,Roslovic,Connor and possibly Lowry would be my untouchables... yeah that includes Wheeler and Little, Why? Because I don't know how smart it is to hang on to them for much longer, Little is UFA after next season, Wheeler the season after, I'd seriously consider moving Little for some LHD help... and Wheeler? well, depends on what he wants in his next contract, if he wants long term big money, move him, if he's ok with a 2 or 3 year deal, you keep him, both these guys are well, one is over 30 and the other one is damn close to 30.

He could always trade Trouba for some LHD help. That's an option and i think a likely one, especially if theres no extension on July 1st for Trouba.. I think what you will see with Trouba is 2 possibilities , 1... he is traded at the draft or 2. He actually sticks around and signs long term July 1st when he can. Hamhuis wouldn't come here, he wanted to stay out west, this is a guy who refused to move his no move clause when Dallas, the team he signed with eventually wanted to trade for him, Russell? He's basically Mark Stuart.

Poolman and Niku look like they will be good players. Gotta start drafting more D men tho, Valimaki would be a guy I'd hope they look at this draft.

Pascal Vincent was hired Jully 22nd 2011. Regardless of what his role was, he was a guy that was hired when NOEL was also, just like Huddy, Just like Flaherty.

I'll just say this... I think Flaherty and Huddy need to go, i really do, they have been here 6 years with poor results, It's time to move on from them and i think at the very least, that will happen this off-season. However, because it's pretty obvious that they are just doing what Maurice pretty much tells them to do, I'm not sure how many changes you would see to the on ice product, in terms of coaching, the buck starts and stops with Maurice so... In a way, Unless Maurice goes, then I'm not sure it makes that much of a difference in the end to get rid of Huddy and Flaherty, I'm all for canning Hudding and Flaherty, I just don't think firing them would make much difference in the end.

Wasn't Vincent hired at the same time Noel was, Noel and Pearn got canned at the same time, Vincent was with the team at the time and stuck around with Maurice.

I'd say Matthias was the big free agent splash and all in all, I'd say he's been pretty good. Penalty Shots are Penalty shots, Pav played that 1 fine, might have been 2 deep when the shot was taken but was a nice shot. I never blamed him for the goal there, i blamed him for not coming 3 feet out of his net to play the puck when he had the chance to before trouba "slashed" the san jose player. On a penalty shot, you want to be farther out of the net, make the guy make a nice move to beat you really, the idea is to limit his options but because PAV was a bit to deep in the net when the shot was taken and even before hand, the san jose player had a bunch of options, decided to fire it pretty much right at Pavs glove, Pav missed it. It happens but... i thought he played it fine other than maybe being 2 deep in the net when the shot was actually taken. Come out, cut down the angle, it's not like the san jose player went bar down or picked a corner or anything, he made a pretty basic shot at the glove hand, Pav missed. It is what it is. Hard to blame him for that one. But it probably should have been stopped. I mean, that's the moment in the game where you need the goalie to make the big save, garbage call, penalty shot, make the save really, huge turning point. If Pav stopped it, perhaps the Jets get a point at least... I dunno, i actually thought the burns goal was the weak one, seeing as how nobody was in front of pavelec and it pretty much went right through his 5 hole.

Yeah, it needed it's on topic in my opinion. It's a recall. It's definitely to replace Toby if he can't go tho as Ken Wiebe on the twitter feed right there says that.

Well, using the old eye test, I think it's pretty obvious that the Assistants just do what the coach tells them to do. I mean, you look at our PP and PK this year as an example, looks eerily similar to last year and the year before in terms of the system we use, Well, Vincent isn't around to scape goat anymore so it's pretty obvious to me that Kompon might be in charge but... he's running Maurices systems. Huddy definitely runs the D tho, I've been to games and sat close enough to the bench at times to definitely see Huddy working with the D through out the game, basically sending Buff out every minute or so, It's pretty obvious he's in charge of how many minutes a guy plays every game, I'm not sure what else he would do as again, i think it's fairly obvious that he's also running Maurices systems.

5 assists in 27 games for the Moose and possibly their worst d man. Called up... If Toby can't go tomorrow, our top 4 D will consist of Buff Morrissey Trouba Strait/Melchiori/Stuart Postma/ Strait/Melchiori/Stuart You think the D zone play is bad now, OHHH boy... Hawks are gonna steam roll us.

Everybody crapping on Enstrom, watch the game tomorrow with Brian Frigging Strait and/or Mark stuart and/or Julian Melchiori on the left side and 1 in the top 4... You will learn to appreciate Tiny Toby a bit more.

I wouldn't be surprised if SASK was the only team actually willing to give him a chance. I think his attitude is poison and i think SASK was the only team offering him a contract.
