You are correct though I did say that and I stand by it. Results are what matter not potential.

Myers has been really impressive.

Nice to have a guy who can shoot, stick handle and pass from the blue line.

He was the one player tonight who was impressive ...he’s special

Hughes played too safe ...very vanilla and not noticeable ...hope he’s ok

Oilers D were the reason they controlled the game ....but they had zero forward help and Demko was yawning making saves

You would think with Edler, Myers and QH Canuck D would control more of the game.

Myers is facking huge out there

Edler pass to sutter was great

Quinn was disappointing for me ...

You can see the upgrades but you can still see 2 or 3 holes. Better overall though.

Goldy and Jake Don't think they are worth the headaches.

Goldy's skill level is apparent but the rest of his game...

Now if we could somehow apply Goldy's skill with Jake's speed and shot we might have a player lol

It's all about your expectations. Jake was always more likely to be a Sille than a Neely, and Goldy was a high risk/reward type forward. Not everyone can be Petey.

You play your 12 best forwards, if they are part of that group great, if not, waivers...

Yeah that's the thing do they fit here now? Jake could score 20 if utilized properly but that appears to be his ceiling. Goldy is obviously skilled but needs to be sheltered defesively all the time with the right linemates. Just curious as to how long the team will put up with 'maybe's' as the depth increases on the club.

Meh. This fan base gets too wound up about "the guy" of the day. The game in Victoria Horvat did poop (frank) all until 59:00 mark. You could see he's a better player, but not really engaged. We all hate Lui, but mostly because he makes $6m. If he was on a 1 year, $1m contract no one would care. I would put Leivo, Baertschi, Motte, Schaller, Gaudette etc all in that group with Goldy and Virts as guys who are plug and play.

ive run out of patience with both. i would rather have gaudette slide over to wing and take their place on the team this year. i think hes looking like a legit nhler in camp but imo his ceiling will be higher with less responsibility
