Missed the start, what happened with Schenn?
- opeth_pa


So if all that was because of Schenn checking kuznetzov last game, why didn't he gift Schenn?

I just wish we had the ability to buy all three of them out this summer so we could properly rebuild like the oilers are doing.

you're right.. there's nothing quite like a 5 year rebuild that shows no progress 7 years later.

It's also wise to let stars walk in free agency when you have success and reach the semis, the rebuild.

Simmonds should have a word with Ovie. He's been running around a lot. He hits hard too.

Haha. Was there any need to ask? With a reasonably decent pp, this series is 2 -2.

10 years ago....TEN years ago....I'm sure with the rich owner we have now..price is NO ISSUE

look all I'm saying is...if youre ok with your top guys producing NOTHING so be it....if the third and fourth lines were the reason youre losing, that's ONE thing..but when your BEST guys are invisible...its time to take a long look in the mirror

They have figured out that Ghost will drift, so they will not give him the lane. They will swarm Giroux. Jake is having his worst spell as a Flyer, probably because he is injured. Not much else. The 2nd pp is Gagner + a bunch of 4rth liners.

Ok. I'll bite. They need depth around those guys. I think Jake is still hurt. He's not even at top speed when skating. The pp has lost all confidence Imo, and they just have too many 4th liners. On d, they essentially have ghost that's all. No depth, and smart deep teams like wash will take him out of the picture. No one else to pick it up. In a couple of years, we should have provorov sanheim morin konecny and others to help.

Joking aside, would have been fun for Buffalo to keep that team together. You really have to be patient and allow a team to go through ups and downs. I'm so glad we got Danny. He was great. Sucks when an owner doesn't want to go all in

Hexy needs to add some physical players to this team next season and time for a new powerplay coach
