The second line tells me all I need to know! While Tavares has incredible instincts, Strome actually has more natural talent. You should watch him sometime. Nino is in the AHL but is now NHL ready, which is more than I can say for Boyes.

Grabner always the unsung hero in my book. Like I always say the guy scores some clutch goals, done it all year. No one seems to realize that for some reason?

OK. I'll give you one. Just for shat and giggles. How about Ullstrom to the third line and Grabner to the first and Boyes to the bench? That's just one off the top of my head.

As long as they have more than 1 option I'm fine with it. And one of those options must be what we have now because we know that what we have now at least works to an extent.

I never said anything about Boyes being the greatest player or that they should sign him to a 5 year deal. That what some of you are making it seem like but that's not what I'm saying at all.

All I ever said was that he should be signed to another year so that we at least have an option that we know works to an extent. And we should also be testing other options.

No. You did that . A good example is you assuming Keaner and I were talking about Boyes bcs you were here when it was bcs he made some terrible plays, had zero to do with you. I actually understand your point with having no faith in mngt doing the right thing and that's why he's the only option. The problem is I disagree with you on there are MANY better options, I just gave you one. Saying it "just works" with a player like Boyes is to me short sighted. There are MANY players on our team and in the farm who could do MUCH better than him without disrupting any aura in the universe. That's all myself and every single person on here has told you. If you disagree that's fine but you're wrong of course

Yeah, kind of takes the shine off of Grabner's celebration...not hard to score with MAB defending...

Vis gets called for playing his position on the switchoff with Hickey. Weak

Disagree, he was interfering. Held him up on his way to where he should be. You know what? It's tied but our team is still going, they make me proud


Edit; what I mean is they don't let that heartbreak of a goal deflate them, they cam right back out. Now lets get the two points while we help Winnipeg get ahead of the rags

Nope I didn't. Never did. I said the exact opposite. I said he was the ONLY OPTION and he is. We can test other options but right now he's all we have.

on a positive note if we manage to win in overtime we just put the Rangers on the ropes.

his job on that play was to cross with Hickey and go straight in front of the goal and pivot towards hickey to be ready for pass he did that but unfortunately inadvertently skated into the Jets player.it looks worse than it was

Well, what a game. Incredible. We played a lot loose than we have been but we got a point and we may get two but this team 3 months ago would've been out of this after the first goal. Gotta these guys
