They've got a big body in McGinn and I think Gomez is just a better all-around player with equal-or-greater versatility at this point. Obviously, there is a size and style difference, but that's not a deterrent for me.
- OrangeBlack27


I just don't see where Gomez is a better fit. They already have at least one center playing out of position on a wing. The lone thing Gomez has on Knuble is speed, but it's not as if Gomez is Michael Grabner at this point of his career.

I hope they dont fire lava. I'd rather them tell him to tone it down or whatever it is they want..

Give him a chance to adapt before canning him. Hes got the pulse on this team.. while the team quits often.. he fired them up when down 3-0 in the series against boston and 3-0 in game 7.

If we go from this aggressive style to a style like murrays we might see some regression with the young guys.

Changes are needed for sure.. but lets give the guy some dmen!

Its like the eagles.. they get a real WR and they go to the super bowl.. we get a real dman (pronger) and we go to the cup finals.

according to some tweets. Rinaldo is likely to be in the lineup tonight.

Apparently Rinaldo felt a tweak at the end of the skate, Panaccio says he switched jerseys and is now a game time decision.

Well, it's true

That was actually mentioned earlier, that while Iggy was certainly a star, Jones would be the first American star

Call up Ed. Tell him to just go get some dmen. They're sold at Target. It's simple really.

I think that may be that old adage that you don't lose your spot due to an injury. I like what I've seen in McGinn. But Rinaldo can add a spark with his physical play.

dude you're trolling and if you believe this you've never watched a sporting event in the past 10+ y ears

Its not simple. But its also unfair to the coach to have a set of dmen that aren't great.

Grossman was a solid addition. Timonen is getting older, but still important to this team. Coburn, whom i love, is kinda stuck in a rut. Mezzy can't stay healthy but has been great when he is.

He added Luke Schenn, who has been much better then I expected him to be. I think he will actually grow an offensive side to his game playing here. I dunno if he'll be a #1 or not, and i'm not hopeful that he will be, but he's at least a top 4 at a young age.

Gervais has been better then advertised as well.

I get what you're saying though.. #1 dmen don't grow on trees... and lots of teams are looking for them.

I would have LOVED Visnosky(sp). Dude put up over 60 points at his age last year. Or the year before i can't remember... still impressive. And he isn't really a #1 guy.

I dunno.. i don't have the answers... just a laundry list of complaints...

I hate whatever team the Flyers are playing that minute the most.

I hate the devils because they cost me 500 dollars last year on that series. I really thought the Flyers were going to steamroll them after crushing the Pens.

Bastards...

For sucking, they absolutely mopped the floor with the Flyers last season in the playoffs, and the one meeting this season. I loathe the Devils.
