Thats what happens when you only have 1 line that can keep the puck on their sticks.

What did the LOG line do all year, sure I wish they would have scored a little more but they were in the offensive zone alot. Get a LHD and upgrade your goaltending and this is a very dangerous team this year.

Ran the ball and played good defence

Controlled possession, provided depth scoring, didnโ€™t get scored on by other teams top lines.

Weโ€™re a huge part of why we were such a good defensive team even though our d-men themselves had less than stellar numbers

Be patient with Girgensons

It usually takes 8 seasons before goal scoring skill starts to shine through

Maybe skinner makes up that 7 goals this year?

My post was in regards to 36's post on LAST YEAR and the LOG line.

Girgensons outplayed his contract, thus he was given an ample raise. Something no one would complain about, If it weren't girgs. ๐Ÿค”

I'm a %1,000skinnersure, that he had a better year than skinner.

9 million = 14 goals
1.6 million = 12 goals

And he played on the pk

2 goals for an extra 7.4 million.

Maybe this is the reason we missed the playoffs, not just goaltending?

Guy lands huge deal and lays down ?

Marcel darius of the Sabres. Minus the drag racing and VD?

Maybe I'm remembering this wrong because it seems like decades since we last played, but wasn't Skinner injured (ankle ?) then playing injured ? He didn't seem like himself after that injury. I'm sure he's all healed up and will get back to the 30-40 goal pace this upcoming/shortened season. I'm not worried about his production going forward.

Skinner scored 28 in the first 41 games as a Sabre
Then scored 12 more and was Injured in the 2nd half of the season, around the deadline.

Signed a max 9 million 8 year deal

Last year he sucked

And they remarkably did nothing.

It's amazing how inept this team is all the time

I think it's fantastic that Adams got us an 87 year old 2C for a year, but goalie was far and away the biggest need. We had Cozens to potentially play center and Reinhart can play center.

Hutton is a liability, and Ullmark is only good when things are easy in front of him

They just ignore things for years on end

- sbroads24

Something tells me that if Adams landed a goalie but not a 2C, that there would be an equally vociferous outpouring of angst and anger from some fans.

Landing any other goalie over Hutton should have been a lot easier than getting Staal

Just my thoughts on that
