Sanheim has not been great and he can play better but he has played better than Ristolainen. I disagree that Sanheim is not a good defender. I'm not sure who "we" is. He'll never be considered a shut down defender but he can hold his own. It's only been two games but what I've seen from Ristolainen but it is not encouraging. It's been scary actually that this is the player they gave up a 1st and a 2nd for.

That really isn't a ringing endorsement. Setting the bar low. Sanheim the def of average. Does nothing really well.

They def overpaid seeing what better Dman were traded for over the summer. poopt from an analytical perspective you can argue Hagg is the better dman. Let that sink in.

So what does it say to you that you are the only one saying it? That's not hard to figure out. I doesn't matter if the statement in the article is correct. What matters is that there is no information which suggests that he will be out for the season. Your repeated insistence on some idea that he may require surgery, while completely ignoring that he did not need surgery, is the issue here. Not matter how many times it has been pointed out to you that he did not need surgery. As if "he might need surgery" is valid.

We'll just see what happens with Allison. As I have stated, I know first hand how bad a high ankle sprain is and what the recovery is like, and the time it takes to fully recover. If you chose to ignore that and just keep your fingers crossed, have at it!

As if your the only one who has ever had a high ankle sprain. Many who also have had one have not stated that he is out for the season. Here you go trying to move the goal posts. As if I had stated that it wasn't a serious injury. I've stated that my guess is that he returns sometime in December to start playing again. So in stating that I think the player will miss multiple months of the season, how am I ignoring it? With each post you did a deeper hole.
