I'm sure I'll get flame for this but here it goes.
I don't see Hall a any more the a slightly above average 2nd liner. Still a nice player but not special. They missed big time on Seguin.
Eberle is Sakic 2.0. Well not quite but he is a awesome player. A winner and big time clutch
RNH-another great player. But not a elite franchise the player. I see. Less quick version of Paul Kariya. Love to have him but not a franchise player. The Oilers again missed on Landeskog. Could you imagine Landeskog and Eberle on the same line? Talk about heart and soul.
Yakapov-Alex Se in. He will scorea few goals. Probably be a consisant 30 goal threat but again not a franchise player. Boy Edm and Columbus are gonna be sorry they passed on Galynchuck

I agree with the assessment . Not big on Hall ,would love Eberle aor RNH for their play making skills . I think Yakupov will let them down .

I'll say this. If edm can't at least contend for a playoff spot this seasongiven the fact that most of their key players should be in mid season for, you have to startquestionig whether they will bee the team many think they will

I would think as a fan of a team with the Sedins on it, whom many questioned for some time after they were drafted, would understand that judging any any team before its time is just silly.

Not much new on Gomez front, other than hearing the Devils are out of the mix now too.

I did. Guess it was hard to understand.

Oilers..no bad yet. Too soon to see. Season. Short. Skewed.

Hope that helps.

I honestly have no problem with him on 4 th line. How long have we been asking for a fighter. If he is horrible we will see very soon.
- VANTEL


Don't get me wrong, I'm all over having a decent fighter.

My hangover is obviously impairing my communications skills more than I realized.

Anyone see that Armstrong interview last night? What a bumhole.
I hope all those people he sued for defamation turn around and ruin that turd.

He's a cheater, lier, and a bully. Great character traits!

1g 3a and a +6...not bad.

Obviously the Graovac aquisition is helping Gaunce with his offense which the Bulls were lacking over all...

edit: I guess they are not giving him that assist but he did get the +...

Does anyone else find it unusual to see a black goalie ? It is like seeing a white boxer. Maybe Gillis should sign Usain Bolt to and send him right straight to Dave Gagner.

Oh I know. He is really coming on lately. Watched him live against the Attack a few weeks ago. I see him as a Micheal Hanzal type player

What? Grant Fuhr, Kevin Weekes, Ray Emery, Malcom Subban... It's almost a disproportionally popular position for black players.
