If we are truly going after ROR. Who let's be serious is no better then a mid level 2nd line center AT BEST. We shouldn't be giving up a first. I'd rather sign Vermette then trade a first for this guy. The most I'd give up is Ruhwedel, 2nd and a prospect like Baptiste.

That's not enough. Minimum would be a late 1st grigorenko and ruhwedel or a late 1st larsson and pysyk/McCabe.

I could really live with the first deal.

There would have to be "assurances" that he would be willing to sign an extention, though.

From everything I read about Carrier - prior to him playing in the AHL this year - was that he was a hard working player willing to get his nose dirty and fight for pucks.

Is this not the case? Could it be "rookie-itis"?

- grand-magus


It very well could be but from what i've seen if he's not playing with the top 6 he's invisible. That's another issue with the amerks is that their forwards arent super physical.

Agree, Cab. But he is a rookie.

Was thinking the whole team in general. We have Ennis and Kane (next yr) Hope next year we shall see some players take off and score regularly. Team lacks it big time.

It's (frank)ing horrible.

It hits home more so when you look at their individual stats and you see all these guys who have 3, 4, 5 goals in basically 60 games

Embarrassing.

Now ya see what I mean. we see all the posters saying so and so sucks he isn't a 2 way player. In the whole nhl there might be 5 like that . That will put up 30 goals every season.
Take the top 10 goal scorers and judge their 2 way play.

Hopefully some of these prospects pan out and we aren't talking about them in the past tense like we would with guys like (ready for this) Norm Milley, Milan Bartovic, TJ Brennan, Drew Schiestel and Phillip Gogulla.

"there have been numerous things that have happened in the past that are completely false"

If they happened, how are they false?

Kane should probably talk less and hopefully play more.

And Prolly a bunch that was not publicized. Don't care about what happens off the ice. None of my business.

Watching Hudson Fasching @ Pegula's Ice Arena vs Penn St (on ESPNU)

#24 is improving his skating! We do have plenty of strong prospects in the system, I don't mind TM turning them (+ some others) into E Kane & Bogo and who will be next on TM radar?

Hotter than yours... But I guess that's not saying much. I'll have to apologize to my wife.
