You're showing your age but I remember everyone you mentioned.....And so does Pierre Pilote-He never misses an opportunity to credit his partner Vasko as a big part of his success.

Pilote was one of the best open ice hitters I have ever seen. Just creamed guys.

Notes lose in regulation @ Philly

And the Isles are up 3-1 on the Preds in Trashville. Two goals by Leddy against his former division rival.

Someone ban me from posting scores. Never again. Preds tie it.

C'mon, you gotta pull for the Isles in THIS game!

I cheer for one team and one team only.

Agree, but Leddy does deserve consideration under the current format.

As I said, introduce the highest scoring defenseman to weed out the stupid selections

I cheer for one team and one team only.

I get that.

Nevertheless, Isles end up winning.
And Nick was on the ice for the last 45 seconds. So there's that.

Is he on the 1st PK unit yet?

IDK. Tonight I only got to watch about the last 2/3 of the 3rd.

I do know that according to the boxscore, the Preds only had 1 PP and Nick had over 1 min of PK time (Nash didn't score). Surprisingly Boychuk had no PK TOI. Seems to vary from game to game from what I've seen and can tell. He's in the rotation though.

EDIT: just so no one thinks I'm running out on the convo, turning in early. Will be around tomorrow night, excited to see the 2nd game with Vermette and Kimmo (and DeJ as well). Would like to see our boys string together some wins here!

List is flawed. No Seabrook.
- Elbows15

C'mon I mentioned him. Eventually. Old time hockey is what i was thinking.

Nick. Knack. Nick. Knack. Knick Knack. Nah ... knick knacks is worth a lot more than Leddy in their own end.

I cheer for the Hawks, and pull for any club that can assist the Hawks in the standings on any given night.

Unless it's the Habs...they can always lose and KMA.

I was referring to another poster's Norris suggestions 66. Was it Bob Baum that used to cut the palms out of his gloves so he could hold a guy without it looking like it?

. 93 days Paul. Go Hawks, still think Bowman solidified them to come out of the west this June!

Woah.....is Pirri good??
- SimpleJack

I don't think the question with Pirri was about talent. More to do with attitude. When he was sent down he asked to be traded and sulked instead of being a professional about it. He should have went down pissed off and played his ass off.

While he scored again, he also was pretty lazy on the play that led to goal scored against them. Kind of what was always the questions about him,

Teams don't just evaluate players on what they do in the NHL. Every game they play is watched and evaluated.

hated the team but some of my favorite players were Habs.

Beliveau, Cournoyer and Robinson. Also always liked Serge Savard.

(frank) Rejean Houle though.

Look, if you or others want to say he is not a proto center size wise then I agree. But are we really going to get into the hyperbole of legend created on a hockey board?

Pirri, like the Hawks second line, is never going to be on the ice for critical defensive zone draws etc..down the stretch of a game. I posted his stats thru 80 NHL games and he is a 40 point plus guy and is like plus 10. Great on the power play, and as you see with Florida, when healthy he gets a regular shift and is productive.

What Pirri and others experienced, is they did everything they were asked to do and trained for, and it still did not matter because the coach simply did not like them. That is the coachs choice. But when you are a player trying to have a career and get jacked around, and you believe in yourself, and you read the writing on the wall. It is time to move on. The guy accomplished everything he could in the AHL and played fine when he was allowed to play.

I am shocked Florida did not sign Handzuis, and send Pirri down.
