I read the post-game write-up over at CA. The guy gives a pretty in-depth and detailed breakdown of the games.
Well worth the read.

I went and read. Sounds as if JB probably could have done without trading for DP. I actually hope that DP could be flipped even for a 3rd round pick at the TDL.

I don't mind Pouliot, he is worth ķeeping around until someone better comes along. I expected too see many different players in this lineup during this transitional phase, so moving on from some players is what I am expecting on a fairly regular basis, over the next 2 seasons.
Holm will be a nice stop gap player here for 2 or 3 years. The CA writer usually has some pretty good things to say about his games.

I dont mind DP either. Fit nicely as a 3rd pairing guy.

So many LHD that are projecting as 3rd pairing though. Too easily found. Sell for depth to another team at TDL and hope that JB can find some more studs in the draft.

If van trades Tanev to TB. Foote, 2nd and joseph.
Guds to TB. Dotchin, 2nd, 4th.

Sell pouliot for depth ? We acquired him for depth... if we are paying for depth that's not depth , only to move the depth for depth...then are we really accomplishing anything at all ???

I like that Pouliot plays both sides

Then it would be a bad decision by a GM

How Many defencemen have we seen that are 'great skaters ' etc.... who lack the toolbox to actually play meaningful minutes? Lots, I'd rather a player have a toolbox then tools. Is ep a bad pick because he's not physically ready for the nhl?

Yeah that's was poorly worded on my part. Sell DP to another team for a pick. The other team will be adding him as depth.

I know I worded it poorly but really would that make any sense at all to sell depth for depth.

Like C'mom man.

I'm not going to anymore Flyers games with him until he cuts the act and starts hating Benning again.

We all know there is layers of hate there. At least when he was serious it was tolerable, this sugar act I skip over.

I hope the same for you when the Sedins are extended for one more season.
