We? Are your multiple personalities acting up? You just gave a limp argument about how DeAngelo shouldn't be overvalued due to his defensive accumen. The entire league voted and said DeAngelo had a better season. I took the time to watch a ton of OHL games this season. Even Andersson looked better for stretches.
You disregarded the fact that I said Bigras was better because you wanted an argument that was easy. 36 games played. When your team is missing you for nearly half the season; you're not the CHL's best defensemen. - fry
That's fair, he missed a lot of time, so he shouldn't win the award.
Who had the best year and who is the better player are 2 different things.
So let me rephrase it like this, if all the CHL players were undrafted free agents, which D Man would you pluck from the lot to join your team tommorow ? How many would you take before Nurse? |

Crosby misses half a season, he's still the best player in the world. What's your point? |

Some people have an inability to sit back and look at the big picture and get really excited about 18 year old boys, and really upset when a team largely made of of kids under 23 don't win.
Chiarelli can't force free agents to sign here or vets to waive NMC's anymore than MacT could. I have no doubt goaltending will be addressed but getting that top pair D man won't be easy.
Regardless , this team won't make the playoffs this year, and I won't be joining the idiotic Mob next year calling for PC's head.....but there will be some, And we already know who they are. |

Impatient mob mentality (leafs syndrome) is not going to ever go away unfortunately. I dealt with CrustyRooster earlier in the same issue about letting LD develop in the AHL. Why should him and Nurse be already included as NHL players? What is the down side of looking at things with the plan to let them have a year in the minors to adjust?
Too many people expect every draft pick to become the next Oilers saviour. It doesn't happen overnight. Do I have way more confidence in the abilities of Bob Nicholson and Chiapet? Absolutely. But, just because they are here isn't going to make a guy like Weber turn around and demand to be traded to Edmonton.
The biggest challenge is how they deal with Nikitin, Ference and Jultz. That's where my judgement is being reserved for. |

The team is going to have a higher skill level this year that alone will make them better. As long as they put in the effort that they played with most of the second half of the year people will calm down calling for people's heads. Eberle played like a man possessed and if Yak can take another step that will help a lot. Plus there is no way that the defense can be as bad as last year. |

I expect them to be better....but if Petry is as good as Habs fans say he is, and he was our number 1 last year and we were terrible.....our defense is a hot mess. Nurse won't help Klefbom, Fayne and Schultz enough.
It's possible PC can scrape up a couple top 4 D from free agency tho...Martin or Erhoff and say Michalek? |

Let's see what an experienced GM in Chiarelli can do over the next 24 months, that's how long MacT had. Compare it to Mac T and see where we're at. No need to even bring Dithers into the conversation.
MacT was not up to the challenge, he looked like a defeated man well before he lost his job. |

Try and remember MacT isn't going to have McDavid, Mclellan, a more mature klefbom and possibly nurse to start the season as well as the extra draft picks that can be dealt like PC is being gifted at the start of his tenure. Your hatred of Mact has you pretty much comparing apples to broccoli. So in 2 years try and remember that if you are capable of any kind of objectivity and critical thinking |
