George stalks me regularly... it takes all my resolve to not hurt myself.. like seriously he has serious problems and has said some awful stuff to me.. I don't want to say he isn't all there but something is clearly not wired correctly.

I haven't blocked him yet because the volume of garbage is simply astounding. It's like a train wreck.

The last time the Isles gave up on a "bad skater" turned into Chara

false the last bad skater they gave up was Griffin Reinhart

Actually I would think a more recent example would be griffin Reinhart.

He proved he was better than Reinhart, and I don't think he'd clear waivers, but I also think he's not able to move well enough to beat out anyone below:
Hamonic
Leddy
Boychuk
Dehaan
Hickey
Pulock
Pelech
Seidenburg

Not saying he is Char, in anyway possible, but he is servisible

Although early Reinhart is having a pretty good camp in Edmonton so far

Agree completely, but it is someone you want in dugout

Boychuck, is also questionable at this time, hence Seidenburg, burly it's a long season and the more the merrier

so would gaudreau

Either one of those two would make the 1st line elite like top 5 league wide w jt and ladd

I like mayfield, but his skating scares me. I don't want to lose him but he's not better than 8 guys in front of him. Pelech can still go down without waivers and so can pulock. I'd keep pulock and risk losing berube over mayfield.

I wish Mayfield had JT's skating coach, but there is always a benefit for having a hard hitter in the back with a smooth skater supporting. Mayfield might not be the best skater up and down, but if he can improve his in-zone skating (corners to net/in-zone), he is worth protection.

okay, which one is you is twitter handle @GeorgeAPace

George Pace ‏@GeorgeAPace 21m21 minutes ago
@6_isles @StapeNewsday So instead of rolling 37 out 52x, you give the KIDS the experience - Notice they are never ready? HINT HINT

@GeorgeAPace @StapeNewsday art I don't know how you do it. This dudes gonna give himself a jammer before the 1st game.

@6_isles @StapeNewsday Cappy can use the likes of you to roll out Bailey and Strait even though they rarely if ever produce !!! Apply Now !

George Pace ‏@GeorgeAPace 18m18 minutes ago

@6_isles @StapeNewsday So, in preseason - WASTE time by giving Bailey 1st line time instead of kids. GREAT ideas Tom - gag

@GeorgeAPace @StapeNewsday I'm sorry, where have I defended anything? I said preseason hockey means nothing. Reading comprehension.

Man, sounds like a Kindlyrick discussion in here. No idea what his twitter handle is.

- Brooklynbound

I don't know about that. Mind you, I only watched parts of the oil-nuck game. But the parts I did see, he didn't look very good. Got pushed off the puck fairly easily in the corners, looked a little confused and his skating is still an issue. Looks like he's dragging an anchor.

I wish Mayfield had JT's skating coach, but there is always a benefit for having a hard hitter in the back with a smooth skater supporting. Mayfield might not be the best skater up and down, but if he can improve his in-zone skating (corners to net/in-zone), he is worth protection.
- psycomkl

If his skating improved, he'd have a regular roster spot, agreed. If by protection you're referring to the expansion draft, they're not going to protect him. Boychuk, Leddy, Hammer, Pulock are the odds on favorite to be protected. I highly doubt that LV would take a flyer on a project when hickey, Dehaan, and others will be available. Just my opinion.

Oh yeah, but so does KR. That's why I think they're one and the same. The arguments just sound so much alike. Not listening/hearing anything anyone else says. It's arguing for the sake of arguing.
