I'd start my 4th line off with Larsson, McCormick, Kaleta

Agreed again. However I think they are dead set on playing Kaleta.

With the waiver . it's possible. But I think PK will be on the roster opening night.

What has Deslauriers really done though besides beat up one guy?

I know a lot of people hate Kaleta on this board, and I'm not trying to start a Kaleta argument, but I think he deserves that spot more that Deslauriers.

no prob, schultzie...no offense taken...I can't get myself out of this mode where, to me, it really doesn't matter all that much who's on the team this season...and that includes kaleta, weber, Mitchell, etc...

So same as last year...too many 3rd and 4th liners on this team...hard to fit all these guys into 6 slots. I'm rooting for Kaleta, hoping he can get his sh!t together and play a good checking game and strong PK....and not committing dumb excessive hits ( except on that wussy Charra).
Delauries (sp?) Looks like he could use another year in the A to get his game together....love the energy but is is often wasted effort.

Agreed Homer. He is missed when he actually is a penalty killer. And he does have some offence to score some goals . Hopefully his time in the sin bin has changed his stupid ways .

This answers you and Homer. We've seen Kaleta. We know what he has. It wasn't spectacular, and could be downright ugly.

What matters - for me - is our need to move on. If it's all the same on any other basis, then "this guy is new" is the basis that differentiates for me and decides who I take.

I realize he takes stupid penalties but I think he draws more than he takes and on some nights is my only source of entertainment out there.

I had to google it

Hey Cab I'm leaving tomorrow to go do some Cabining. Weather is going to be killer!

I think his scoring and pick possession potential is far better.

Second time today GMTM's opinion of a player (decision to go get him) is the tiebreaker for you.
