OK, first, let’s be honest here…Strait wasn’t some kind of miracle worker back there, or anything close to a significant factor. He did an admirable job at what he’s supposed to do this season…filling in on the bottom pair for an injury. The injury’s over, though, and Vis certainly brings more to the table. He plays that third-pair D role, which shouldn’t be critical to Ws and Ls no matter if it’s Strait or Vis there, but he also has value on the power play (which could use any and all options) and makes better first passes out of the zone to get the rush going. Personally, I don’t take that skill set out of the lineup just because Strait didn’t get turned around like usual for a couple of games. I play the odds that Vis’ obviously higher skill set leads to better things than having Strait in there.

in addition to strait playing better...the isles are playing a dirty flyers team (last game vs the flyers was chippy) this change could be as much preventative on top of strait>vis

I think I'm going to go after the IS350 next. It will be a nice mix between the CT200h I currently drive and the BMW M235i I drove for a couple months.

Just saw a quote from Blake Wheeler re: this situation:

"There's a standard that everyone needs to live up to. If you don't like it then there's other places to go"

woah

wow, that's like david perron calling out his teammates before being moved to the pens, except you know wheeler isn't going anywhere. Bye bye Kane, but it may not be until the summer if he opts for surgery that ends his season.

I don't understand why it's so unbelievable that I drove those cars. The CT200h is $190 a month and the bmw I leased for 2 months was $400 a month.

It's not but you stumbled over what you said you were driving more than one time. Not that anyone was interested in what you were driving to begin with.

Not good timing with him being on the fence with surgery. Jets aren't going to get much for the guy.

if the flyers play chippy tonight maybe it'll snap the isles out of the passive uninspired hockey they played against detroit and florida. a win tonight and against boston would be a nice bounce back.

Well I leased both at the same time. I've got the CT200h for another year and a half but that thing has a 0-60 of like 9 seconds. So I went ahead and transferred the BMW lease from someone trying to get out of it with 2 months left to get a faster car for a while. 0-60 in under 4.5 seconds

To start with we don't believe you have $400. We also don't believe you can drive. Now if you said you got driven around in this we'd believe you.

2 month lease? what, do you drive them around the lot for a dealer or something? who leases a car for two months? Or, did you wreck it?

im all for chippy games, but if it gets chippy id prefer strait playing than a guaranteed injury to lubo....let him fully recover before he gets involved in the physical games.

Lots of people want to get out of their leases early. it's very simple to transfer a lease to another person.
