Growing up he was the family remote. When they wanted the channel changed they would smack him in the back of the head.

I dont understand how a routine 50 pointer who plays in all situations is expendable. What happens if a top 9 forward gets injured
- jak521

Sorry I guess so. I'm just pumped for next year, drafting and getting Couturier that low has got me pumped!

My biggest issue with Konopka is that he's dumb as a brick hockey-wise. We do not need any more dumb on this team. We need smart players.

Konopka is almost as stupid and out of control as Carcillo. No thank you.

Schenn is here to stay. And it's the AHL next year I believe.
Trade Versteeg. He is extremely expendable. Trade him for a prospect.
And Detroit gets fleeced. Not like it matters.

That's stupid. You have a really solid third line with Steeg, Schenn and Simmonds.

It could be. I think he plays next year in the Q and then we see where they sit with other pieces up front.

Let's hope for some of this in the future.

Not bad...

*edit* of course if those guys meet expectations.

Dubnyk is a fine goalie, they don't need Bob.

Don't forget the grand total of 1 goal with all that PP time and the incredibly bad timing of TO's.

I have a serious feeling that 5 teams ahead of us made a big mistake passing up couturier. He's got Joe Thornton written all over him.
- jak521


After seeing some video... Why does Couturier remind me of Handuz - just how he looks staking around out there... Handuz was great 2way (or just defensively).

Yes, if Schenn is ready. He seems capable of handling a third line role, though. Not sure that he'd gain anything with another year in junior

Then got sick. Oh well, I guess that means he's going to be a bust because he can't play while ill.
