It's not so much Goul as it's finally making a move and its not Lindblom.

People female dog for the sake of female doging. He made a move to try and bring a spark. Is it the best move. I dont know. But he is trying to tweak the lineup without making a trade. Yes I would love l indblom up. But I also understand they have bigger plans for him. A top 6 type role. Pp producer.

Goulbourne is what he is. But he will bring some grit and also might help on the pk. He has good wheels. I think he fits on the 4th line and makes them closer to what they were when they started the season and provide energy and chances when it was a line of Leier, Laughton and raffl.

We called up an AHL 4th line plug, let alone an NHL one, any way you cut it for a team starved for scoring and depth. While players like Lindblom rot.

He's going to PK over who? Raffl? Laughton? That's good? It's just to pretend the PK isn't Lappy's fault. It's personnel! So call up Goulbourne. Because he's certainly better than the players they're already using.

It's pathetic. This team is just the (frank)ing worst.

This team needs more than a spark. And when you've got Lindbolm down in the AHL and Weise on the PP there are easy decisions to be made that are evidently being over thought.

Its Hexy flat out telling the team, you are soft, you don't play tough, you are easy to play against, so we have to bring this kid up to show you how its done.

At least it seems Hexy is admitting he’s assembled a group of limp Richards

No. I try to look at the roster a and see what could be done to improve. Yes I would trade simmonds. Last year I thought Giroux looked cooked, but he has improved since moved to the wing. Weal I would trade to add size. If that's trading all our good players I am sorry.

Have to give the kid a chance. We have players playing on the 4th line that aren’t doing anything.

Do people realize hextall and hakstol have done almost everything people have wanted.

- weal resigned
- more youth in the lineup
- better 4th line which they had with raffl, Laughton and Leier.
- raffl moved up the lineup
-patrick switched with filppula
- gostisbehere playing.more minutes
- voracek moved off the top line to try and get scoring depth
I mean to me the team has done a lot of people wanted to see.

just priceless

Who's next? Perhaps Lamarche can step in for Hagg.

Even better we'll just bring good old Frank "The Animal" Bialowas out of retirement.

Yeah, I guess. But really who's fault is it? Hexy supplied the players and Hak has them playing to avoid penalties at all costs. So??

Not much. But he would add speed and checking. Better than limp Richard weise or Lehterä
