That seems pretty accurate IMO.

The future looks bright

I think marincin has a decent shot at becoming a solid all around top 4 guy.
He came a long way in the second half of last year.
A smooth skater and started to make the simple play.

That said, he'll never be in the same league as some of those 3rd liners uve mentioned

I know, I know. I'm a glass half full kinda guy.

Give Yakimov development outside the NHL until sh1t is a UFA.

I found that EDM did best with the 3rd line, 3rd pairing, and backup goalie out. Kind of strange how that works.

I think EDM (frank)ed up with Harti. Better than Joensuu. I'd give him a one way contract. Can't score but can play the grinding game and decent possession numbers

"With a $5 million cap hit, MacTavish admitted he found little interest from other teams in the 29-year-old forward" - TSN

Hemsky is being paid like a top line winger, but is putting up 3rd liner production
(36 pts in 69 games in 2012, 20 in 38 in 2013).

Before the season starts, I doubt a team gives up a 2nd for him or schultz for that matter, Edmonton will likely have to take back some salary just to get rid of him. If the oilers wait until the deadline maybe a desperate team like the sharks/nucks/pens might take a flyer on him, and maybe the return would be a 2nd.

Hockey News (citing Matheson: Edmonton Journal) reports that the interest in Hemsky by other teams is non existent. So, Richard says, let's pretend we get a second round pick for him! Hard to be serious.

I think the coaching and D needed some work. EDM was 19th in GA, but 2nd in SA/G (TO was 3rd). Dubey was what kept them in it a lot of nights. I suspect Eakins, Ference, better bottom pairing and whitney gone will push them up to 9th-10th in the west. No playoffs this year

Come on, you need some Leaf fan optimism. You'll make the playoffs!

oh eh. Last 3 teams in playoffs were 1,2, and 4 in fenwick. Can't ignore possession.
- TheNugeIsHuge



I know, I dont ignore advance stats. Dont know a ton about it but they have their place. Just they arent the end all. You need to watch games to see why certain trends are happening. Theres several pretty big assumptions being made and they are far from perfect. My biggest beef with them is they completely ignore quality of possession. Its pretty hard to track that objectively though.

No, they aren't. Your post was absolutely beyond the line and quite clearly indicates what type of an individual you are.

Your statement clearly indicated its to bad Clouts isn't dead. You've stooped to a level I've never seen on this site and you have the gall to suggest someone's posts are worse than that.

You're clearly an ill mannered condescending little man that lacks any social skills.

Why do you even come here? I really don't understand why you and Iggysbff continue to read the blogs because after each one you insult people, call Clouts names but seem unable to actually discuss hockey without being a little cyber troll.

No one wants to read the crap you two post and clearly you don't like it here so go do something you enjoy and give the rest of us a break. I and I'm sure many others have grown tired of your little song and dance.
