all spezza had to do was go to the bench.

the speed of the game is too fast for him. he looks lost out there.

- Tumbleweed

He made a mistake man. It’s unacceptable for sure but saying he doesn’t belong in the NHL just shows you are angry and really should try to make comments more level headed.

He’s 1st on the team in P/60 and has been good at 700K. Relax a bit.

he has a lot more value don't listen to the negative nancy's
- Lucas.Neilson


When he plays to his full potential (which is rare these days) his value is high.

He isn't doing a whole lot out there when he has the puck. He does these little weak lob passes all the goddamn time which always leads to losing possession. I don't understand why he makes these plays, he's much smarter than that (I think) but continues to do them.

Dude should be dominant game in game out. But I couldn't even tell you one game this season where he has been.

Hopefully he gets it going soon.

IMO, it's on both Spezza and Rielly..

Rielly should have known Spezza didn't have a stick and should have seen Nichuskin there..

I like Jay with Silent Bob better.
- Scabeh


Those two would have made a better play than Spezza and Rielly did last night.

Spezz looked like he got caught trying to illegally cross a border.

nylander is the most tradeable right now. a lot money is already out the door on his contract.

matthews and marner are more tradeable after jul 1, 2020. once they collect their ~$15M bonus cheques each; for the successful completion of a nhl regular season.

take a look around the league

#1C at his age and 40+ goals = 10+ million

- Lucas.Neilson


You’re entitled to your opinion.
But I see a winger that gave up on the concepts of defence and hard work after his rookie season.

I think a more realistic trade would be;

Jenner, Savard and Anderson for Nylander, Ceci and Bracco. I still think that it's too much, Nylander is a high price to pay... I don't see any team helping us out though.

Nylander would be an easier move to make.

Someone tag this thread.

Expose these guys in a few years when they wanted to seriously trade Matthews because of a bad stretch.

Shame on you guys.

so you see a winger in Matthews who's been a C his whole life?

everyone has their own two cents you are right...doesn't mean the 2 cents is worth a damn.

Jones, Jenner, Anderson

I would trade Matthews lazy butt for a stud dman! You would then have cap space to acquire another forward.

Similar to what happened with MacKinnon when he signed his first contract off his ELC, he only had 16 goals and people thought he was overpaid..

he looks like he is skating in sand out there.

you get what you pay for. $700k gets you a poop powerplay player who can't both track the puck and a teammate.

You must think Josh Anderson is as good as Auston Matthews..

I need to ask, are you ok? Also, are you sure you're ok?
