Buchnevich too, I am often critical of him but I liked what I saw

Pionk making DeAngelo expendable is fine by me.

Yeah he was good too. Man Hayes looked awful the 1st 2 periods. Especially on the PP. Maybe there was a reason he didn't see it much previously.

DeAngelo is just so dumb though. You see the difference in the two, Pionk and DeAngelo that is. I can't believe how much better Pionk is. Considering he was undrafted out of college. DeAngelo makes way to many dumb defensive decisions to be trusted.

It was one game and Zib is turning into scrambled eggs

So all kidding aside, Neal Pionk is going to be a fixture on defense for years. He's ability to Skate and think the game at the same speed is so good.

Yeah, those 2 guys were pretty solid last night. Sounds like Andersson worked hard during the summer.

I can think of another undrafted D that turned out to be pretty good.

Wasn't he an unfortunately high draft pick?

edit:
Never mind. Just did my homework after the fact.
Any other Hobey Baker winners never get drafted???

Not by the Rangers. They signed him out of college as a UFA.

I have resigned from Hockeybuzz today & will be taking a step back from #isles hockey blogging. I will remain on twitter & stay a voice/provide expertise. 11yrs active hockey writing needs to end to work on something where my heart now is. Thanks for reading. Been a wild ride.

I hate the fact the Flyers are going to have young, skilled depth for a while.

Not really sure you can call a 3rd round pick a bust, but I guess if you're referring to him based on his exceptional player status then yea...he's a major bust.
