By the way.... IMO that proposed trade Kevin is talking about.... This would be another terrible move by Darcy which he would make only to save his job. I agree with trading Miller but you need to get a game breaking type player for him... Not some underachieving high round draft pick...... Just a terrible idea. Get Darcy out of here before he puts this team back decades.....

Porter at the moment is more useful to the team than Grigorenko. Grigorenko right now brings nothing to the team, at least porter can forecheck and play the PK. Rolston is doing what all head coaches should do, and that is try to win games. Would I like to see Grigorenko get more playing time? Of course but at the same time you cant blame a coach for trying to win.

This is supposedly a rebuilding year..... Winning is not the number 1 goal....

From the long term perspective yes, but from a coaches persepective where this may be his only shot in the NHL you cant expect him to lose games on purpose.

EDIT: I just ate half a pie

How is Yak underachieving? He had a very good season last year, and is having a slow start like 75% of the rest of the players in the league. Granted I wouldn't give up the world for the kid, but he's still an excellent hockey player.

why is grigs on the 4th line.....can someone else show me another 1st round pick around the NHL who is playing on a 4th line with 2 tough guys?!?!?!?!
