Seeing the Classic Blue & Gold at the VERY bottom brings a "Warm and Cozy" feeling to my heart!



I get to dream for at least 8 days!

Me too.


It's a shame that some will just look at it as us losing out on McDavid rather than seeing it as this franchise finally getting a stud to build around.

I'll take either one on this team all day. Finish 30th and we win no matter what.
I'm still hoping for us to win 1st with the Blues or Islanders pick and get both!

You mean the second line, right?
Because the first time I make it to the counter, I'm always in the wrong line.

Best players this season: Ennis LionEater Deslauriers (honorable mention)

Worst: Meszaros and Hodgson (Staff honorable mention)

- Der Kaiser


Your worst honorable mention has the same amount of points as LionEater

At least the 3rd week in a row I haven't set my roster...and I'm winning after 1 night.

It won't last though, my opponent has many more playing Wednesday

I mentioned this a few pages back, but I'm surprised that Girgensons might hit or come close to 20 goals this season. However, I EXPECT it from Stafford.
Stafford -17
Girgensons -9 (as a first liner....assumes he's going up against higher quality talent)

I guess i was confused by his answer thinking that he was asking in a very roundabout way who our two best players have been. How is Ennis HURTING us?
Now that i go back and read (reid, reed) the question without looking at the answers, I have no idea what he's asking!
I guess it's either "who are our 2 worst players" or," who are our 2 best players," but there's all kinds of commas and "ie's" in there that make what he's asking difficult for me to understand.

Oh, and I agree with you if that was the question.

I sincerely apologize for convoluted unorthodox, not to mention, needlessly wordy in the least.

Simply Put: Who can we/should we trade in order to ensure our redemption without reservation of value said attribute would be to a building club.

Thank you all for playing

Id rather just send Girgensons and perhaps Ennis or Enroth to a "specialist"... *cough-cough-Aruba* due to their very very serious "injuries" than to trade them in order to secure certain "outcomes."
I at least want Girgs and Ennis on the team after this season.

Besides that, it's Stafford, Stewart, probably one goalie.

Yes, that's right.

An 8th year "power forward/scorer" who costs $4M/yr and should be in his prime hasn't scored any more points than a 20 year old second year "grinder" who earns twice his $975k. And the grinder has shown worlds' more effort and leadership than the disapearing Stiff.

So Stiff gets honorable mention, but does not earn "Worst."

If Biggest Career Disappointment were a category, who knows what could happen.

Marrone in as Jags o-line coach. Had to mention this. If they beat us in London next year do they carry him off the field?

Team's leading scorer last year if I recall correctly.

Just saying. He's been managed a little better than Gringo has.

I feel like he has the Luke Adam syndrome going, in that he feels that he should be given opportunities X, Y, and Z when he hasn't earned them this year.
