Hopefully Ratcliffe can get traded during the season like Konency with Ottawa, I would like to see what he could do with a better team.

Is he definitely going back to Jrs next year? i.e. no AHL

Some kind words from his coach on being named Capt.

“Isaac is a terrific ambassador for our team in the community, and is the ideal person to lead our team in 18-19. His work habits on the ice and in the gym set an excellent example for everyone in our organization. Through his hard work and dedication, he has emerged as one of the elite players in the OHL.”

Is it me or do depth charts not change? Anyone of Manning or Gudas could have sat near the end of the regular season and into the playoffs. Gudas never did and I wanna say Hagg was inserted in the last two games over Manning. Sanheim also never sat.

To be clear, I could be wrong. I'm fine with being wrong but Morin is a big, young, physical presence that I expect when healthy to play regularly.

- SuperSchennBros


Sanheim sat for the final two playoff games. Manning played all six games.

And Manning played 62 regular season games last season. If Morin was healthy, he'd be lucky to play that regularly with Hak as coach.

Yes. God bless these men who sacrificed their lives for the future of this Country.
True heroes.

Nowadays guys the same age are still living at home with Mommy and Daddy playing video games. Pathetic losers.

Most of the current US military are aged 18-35, and they're all volunteers. Did you ever think about volunteering?

He would be a fun surprise if he somehow made it out of camp. Call him Westley Snipes as the dark(est) horse at camp?

Guy spends his free time trolling on the internet and is calling other people pathetic losers. Gold.

Some were shot so quickly they didn’t have time to consider terror. Just insane. Imagine being in one of the later boats and just seeing several wiped out cleanly before touching sand. No escape; terrifying just thinking about it.

Okay, I'm wrong but the clearly written depth chart is still written in pencil. At no point has Hagg played ahead of Gudas this season.

Hagg was on the second pairing with Ghost and then with MacDonald till he got injured. Gudas was on the 3rd pairing with Manning and Sanheim.

I also wanna throw another thought into the mix, love it or hate it. I am absolutely relieved the Caps are up 3-1 in the Stanley Cup Final. Absolutely relieved!

I just heard on the radio that a first year team, win or lose, might parade after this season is over. Now some of you might think "No Big Deal, first year, successful season." I whip my butt to that noise. I drag ass to see the Flyers a few times a year and have had my heart broken. I'm not celebrating any failed season. I'm only ever going to celebrate Cups. These Vegas fans have nothing to compare to and probably never will for a number of years. They don't know what a Leafs' fan has been through. Don't have a parade if you don't win it! Vegas doesn't know it's elbow from its ding dong if they throw a parade for losing.

Go Caps! Best of Luck to Ov! I don't care that they're in our division. It's called good sportsmanship. It's called respect. Some players, teams and cities deserve it more. Yes, deserve!

Has Keith and Seabrooke played on the same pair their entire career?

I'm not arguing, I just see things different from most of you, right or wrong. Gudas also started most PK's with Provorov. Ghost rarely sees PK time, if at all. Manning I believe shouldn't have played as much as he did but some players got sat in favor of him. I couldn't stand it.

It's up there with the Caps bringing out Pat Sajack before Game 3 saying what a great season it's been.

Famous season ticket holder, whatever, that was weird for sure.

An "Everybody Is A Winner!!!" parade would be far worse though.

imho
