This series could easily be 2-1 for the Rangers though. Physicality is important, but you also can't have a team of Brian Boyle's. On offence, I think grit is enough. A guy Gallagher's size is acceptable if he plays like Gallagher. On defence, size is probably more important but I still wouldn't trade a softy who can skate for Doug Murray. There still needs to be a mix of mobility with size.

that's NOT what your HB profile says

The problem with signing Markov at all is that MTL has a log jam at LD. Even if they trade one of Gorges/Emelin, they would still have Markov, Gorges/Emelin, Beaulieu and Tinordi. On RD, they would have Subban... that's it. Even if they resign Weaver that would leave them with only 2 RD. You could argue that we could just move one of the LD to the right side, but why do that when you could just sign a player that naturally plays RD?

What I am saying is that our money may be better spent on a top 4 RD than on Markov.

Pateryn is a natural right RD.

I'd keep Emelin there as well, even if he's a lefty gives him a better angle for the big hit at the blue line.

Subban - Tinordi
Markov - Emelin
Beaulieu - Pateryn

from Ontario. doesn't count.

there are 3 pool areas (as i recall), all pretty separate from one another. pretty sure one is adult only. no swim up bar but there's a huge bar. and since it's pretty upscale the cocktail waitresses have all their teeth.

That would completely FREAK Pete out!
