Is Mars participating in the upcoming Olympics? Need to know if I should draft Bryz for my Olympic pool or not.

My bad.

Fair enough, I agree with that. It's probably just not his game though, he's not a soft guy but I don't think he's someone who will throw a big hit every game or ever be a very good checking/two-way forward. I tried to justify the reasoning behind the trade since most of us were scratching our heads and assumed that maybe Dalpe was going to be given a top 9 role while Kassian and Schroeder were out, but right now he looks like he'll be one of the guys who might be sitting in the press box when Burrows/Schroeder/Kassian are back.
- Nucker101

I just think that Guys like Santorelli are showing more of what Tortarella wants, and are being rewarded with extra shifts with a Sedin or two. Gillis took a chance on a guy with a lot of potential, it hasn't paid off yet, but its a long season and anything can still happen.

Why, so Canada can be eliminated before the medal round?

Meh, he's a skilled offensive player(still trying to transfer his AHL game and confidence to the NHL) and he's playing with Sestito for a few minutes per night. You'd have to be a pretty damn good player to stand out in that situation, but I can't blame Torts either with others playing well.
- Nucker101

Yup.

Not sure if backwards on purpose...

The team needs 4 effective lines. I would really like to see Dalpe earn more minutes. They need to figure out what to do about the fourth line. This will be the teams Achilles heel come playoff time if they don’t. Nice to see a blogger who is actually on the ground in YVR!
- VanHockeyGuy

Returning 2 top 6 wingers to the lineup tends to have an amazing trickle down effect on the 4th line. Torts will have lots of options when Burrows and Kassian are back and we'll likely see all 4 lines start to get rolled much more regularly.

It's nice to see that Torts has given Garrison the green light to shoot more. I never understood why AV refused to use Garrison in this capacity give his past success. I think he'll easily score 10 - 15 goals this season.
- DarthKane

Because AV was a moron. By the way, how'd his team do last night???

It is funny... But not as funny as how serious you took it.

Totally agree. A lot of people say that AV never used Garrison on the PP, but he actually had him on the 2nd unit last year, but the issue was that AV usually kept his first unit on for about 90 seconds of most PP's, and the second unit lacked the skill and time to work with to actually set up in the offensive zone so Garrison was a non-factor on the PP.
- Nucker101

Garrison was on the bench for a while on the PP before he was given some scraps by AV. I was in disbelief as much as Gillis had to be after he brought this player in to be used the way Torts actually is.

Relax Doc.

I really didn't take it serious at all. I was just curious as to whether there was some intent to the mix up and the joke was flying way over my head.

My mistake.

Have a great day! I'm sure you will, since you seem to be in such a great mood.
