All these other AHL players get called up except JV why?

Because he is useless

i've been noticing that a lot of the Sbisa hate has died down and no one complains about trading shink...

maybe, just maybe... trader JB isn't as bad as everyone was making him out to be... did well with Baertschi, Granlund, and Sbisa... not to mention Guddy

that's down from almost everyone thinking JB is an idiot... although that narrative was pushed by the POS loser scum that infest the media outlets in Toronto.

EK is saying Kane to Calgary, that will make the division interesting.

I really hope he can turn it around. We do have the element of time on our side, hopefully he gets it at some point.

I still have a feeling they will mold him into game shape and move him.

Utica fans have been saying that he refuses to engage and he is getting roughed up every game. They don't believe his shoulder is healthy. If that's the case, they should shut him down.

I think it has to do with the old saying "when a crusher tries to be a rusher they soon become an usher"
Something changed after his suspension for his hit on Polak last year, not sure if he got told to tone it down but in order for him be effective he needs to be skating well and hitting. That was not happening early in season.
Shoulder injury may have something to do with it. We could use a hitter like him on this roster whether it be on 3rd or 4th line. He needs to earn a recall though.

Looking at the schedule, this team could potentially string together quite a few wins assuming Miller continues to put on a clinic and the D doesn't disintegrate.

NSH - WIN
PHI - Loss?
NJ - WIN
NSH - WIN
FLA - Loss?
CHI - Loss
COL - WIN
ARI - WIN

5 -3 = 10 of 16 points?
Thoughts lol?

Edit: Not that it matters though, February will absolutely decimate this team...

I think we could lose to NJ and maybe one of the Nashville games. With this team I expect we'll lose 1 or 2 easily winnable games and then proceed to beat a team like Chicago that we have no business beating. Probably get 8 or 9 of 16 available points.
