I feel it's warranted to say that I am a certified member of Bixll and Friends charity. It does great things to help those,(ie; me) in need of alcohol.

Dubas said in an interview with the Athletic that he does not see any pure rentals(expiring UFA’s) that would help the team. He said he sees some pieces with 2,3 years left that he is going to be looking at.

So we can stop talking about Simmonds

Yeah our forward lineups are amazing

Would be nice to see Babcock switch the defenseman up a bit though. Maybe try something like:

Gardiner-Rielly
Dermott/Hainsey-Zaitsev
Hainsey/Dermott-Ozhiganov

Not sure why Babs only plays Gardiner and Rielly together when we're down and are desperately needing a goal. Why not just always play them together as our top pair.

I get having them on separate pairings is so we have a guy on each pair who can make an outlet pass. Which does make sense but at least try it out and see how things go.

Still blows my mind at how many defense are good enough to play in the NHL but can't seem to pass worth poop..

BTW, isn't it funny, 2 days ago I get roasted on here for stating Babcock does not play his players enough and it's a massive issue, today, phone texts from Paul Marner reveal how much he hates Mitch's TOI.

For long term success, this team needs to play it's stars like other teams.

- RogerRoeper



What's this?? A hockey parent concerned that his kid isn't getting enough ice time?? That's never happened before, ever! Oh.. Yep. Wait a second.. It happens all the time.

Mitch is doing fine. Sit down dad.

Only way that works is a home game against a team with one good line....any other situation and the D gets exposed horribly.
