SPuDS Posted November 23, 2017 Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 22 hours ago, kelownabomberfan said: yeah I agree. I thought we dumped Thorburn to make room for younger guys to move up, and instead we just went out and got Thorburn 2.0. Get Roslo and Perrault together and let them make some magic. I think that was the plan and then they saw what happens when you remove too much of the grit and vet savvy from the lineup. Guys like Hendricks are not great at any one thing imo but they seem to make everyone around them play better.. they are like, skill multipliers or something. him and tanev both bring intangibles to the table that the youth movement dont. shock blocks, smart play, energy and that something that cannot be quantified.

Floyd Posted November 23, 2017 Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 I was not a fan of the signing but Hendricks has been very very good in his role should Hendricks and tanev be getting more ok time than little and armia- no but Maurice is Maurice - so it could be worse SPuDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely not more than Little. Tanev vs. Armia is tough... very different players that bring different skills to the table. I could see an argument for either one, especially since Tanev is on the first PK unit. I do believe we will see a turning point where Armia starts to earn more icetime... IMO Armia is probably in line to earn a top six spot if there is more than one injury to that group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floyd Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 Good news about Schilling but I'd much rather see Melchiori/Niku on that top pairing - don't care about developing a 29 year old career AHL Dman Crazy that Spacek is fourth line centre on the Moose... he needs playing time Had high hopes for Kostalek but he sure plateaued Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelownabomberfan Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 beauty short-handed goal by Roslo. There's got to be a way to get that guy up in the bigs, he's really looking good out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to see him on the Jets in the New Year... probably as an injury call up I would bring him in right away but it would mean knocking Lowry out of the lineup or its kind of pointless - and that's not going to happen A bit of a bummer to see Petan's confidence gone... also not sure why we traded picks to keep Dano from VGK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also don't know what we saw in keeping Dano. Sure would have liked to have been able to grab Cal Foote in the draft. SPuDS and Floyd 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the value of having good goalie depth on a year like this where we might make a real run, outweighs the 5th-7th round pick we get for Hutch.

I always think you sell when an asset is in high demand, but there's not much behind Hutch so probably not a great idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
