Judging by the stupidity in that update it's clear they've assigned Colin McDonald updates to their worst intern.

I could understand if AMac was still on the team..but jesus.

Also, Hamonic's injury isn't considered serious, just needs rest. If de Haan gets suspended and Hamonic can't go, you'll see Donovan. #Isles

That's why I love when people call her "passionate" and a "die hard" fan. Neither of those would ever write something that so obviously points out that they never watch this team.

Edit; got completely confused on that one. I thought you were saying Dee posted that

I saw that tweet a little while ago. I haven't seen anything about de Haan being expected to serve a suspension. Curious to see where that one goes. I'd hardly say that was a malicious hit to the head and he has zero prior history so I can't imagine they'd really suspend him. Plus Clarkson wasn't injured.

Hearing that once McDonald is claimed or clears, Anders Lee is likely to join #Isles in Boston tomorrow.

- Vukota

Now play him with JT and KO, and play Kulemin with Nelson and Strome, move Bailey back to the right wing and put Conacher on the third line with him and Nielson until Grabovski comes back. Clutterbuck goes back to the fourth line.

scratch conacher when Grabovski is back and ready to go and then put Kulemin back on the third line and Grabovski back with Nelson and Strome.

Fixed.

I think it is time to expose one or the other to waivers. I am more intuned to put Strait on waivers than Donovan
- kasperrko


Donovan still has room to grow as a player, Strait's at his ceiling and it's not good. Waive Strait.

Check to the head penalty he received last night for the hit on Clarkson.

Carkner should be next, if a move is needed to clear a roster spot..... Enough loyalty to scrubs and time to use a talented line-up for most games....


Edit: Or Strait if some want to hold onto another enforcer type player instead

Agreed on all fronts, except if I'm going to move anyone from their natural wing..it's going to be Conacher, not Bailey. Josh has played well up to this point at LW.

He is already on IR so he is not counting against the roster right now

carkner needs to go as soon as he's off IR. I'd keep strait over him, that's how badly I want carkner gone.

good point and I agree. Bailey has been a solid bottom six forward through the first 5 and a half games (everyone was bad in the second last night)

Something tells me that phantom injury will last all year long. He is basically a paid cheerleader
