Without Giroux, there are no answers, only questions
- AllInForFlyers


Look, I understand that many aren't in love with Lecavalier but the guy has more then proven he deserves to move up in the line up. Instead Berube is on the bench pulling names out of a hat. If no one is comfortable with putting Lecavalier on the top line, Laughton is out right now too. So the second line center position is open. You still have Bellemare who also could try out at center within the top six. Instead the game plan is to throw guys out at random. How can the players even talk on the bench among themselves about possible strategy? I'm sorry, I just don't understand this approach.

It seems to me Berube cannot even decide where to put his players without Giroux. Brayden Schenn, Vincent Lecavalier and Michael Raffl have all seen center and wing less then half way through this game. Del Zotto wing and defense. I'm not seeing a game plan. I'm seeing one player lost and a coach without answers.

That's what I'm seeing too. When I saw the fourth line still together I had to laugh. Really coach? Your afraid to break up the fourth line?

Jagr!!!!

He will get traded next season if he's not in the NHL

Of course but not until they get that bonus or blown away by a trade offer. But not that London needs it they are the most profitable junior team of all 3 junior leagues.

Let this sink in..

5-0 to the Devils after losing 2-1 to the Hurricanes.

This is the type of game that gets people fired or traded.

Yah moving him for a number 1 dman or number 1 left wing is giving up on him..

He might be 20 but he also has 243 games played in the league. Please note I am not saying trade him for a draft pick (unless you can get 1 or 2 this year).

Im just saying it's easier to replace a 3 line checking center then it is to get a number 1 dman or left wing under the age of 30.

- opeth_pa


You aint getting a #1 Dman for him, They don't grow on trees. Teams are not looking to deal #1 Dmen.

Those who cover the CHL had heard teams were shocked London took him in round 1 of the OHL draft.

How can this be happening with Rinaldo in the lineup? He's like a big hitter and stuff.

Except for the fact the rumored deal for Weber was Couturier+B Schenn...

I dont disagree though..Couturier is no where near enough to get a number 1 dman or a number 1 left wing ..
