Big Buff pondering his options and considering retirement. Wow the Jets could be screwed with their defense

I would do this but we would need to do something else to clear the cap space. Laine is going to get north of 7 in my opinion. Prob closer to 8.

I watched most of the game and Stewie was Ok. Who I thought played really well was Laughton and Raffl. Rubstov and Hart had a nice game too.

Not possible, word on the street is that Raffl is a useless and overpaid plug taking a job from the kids or Ryan reaves types

Raffl was good until OT, when he made two pretty brutal turnovers. Thankfully he won't get playing in OT in real games.

True on both accounts, but the really brutal turnover was by Susko in the offensive end in OT.

I'm not saying I hope Gabriel is hurt...but I am saying I'd be happy if he has no chance, or any circumstance that reduces his chance, of cracking the NHL roster.
- jmatchett383


Yeah for sure. He's only here for one thing and he refused to answer the bell last night. Or maybe he got his as$ kicked? I can't recall. In any event dude is irrelevant.

Ghost 4.5 + Braun 3.8 = 8.3, what's the issue?

I wouldn't trade for him. Winnipeg is going to walk quality cost-controlled assets and then we'd have to work out a contract extension for a guy who scored a grand total of 12 goals outside of November last season. Not saying he's a bad player, but he was pretty brutal for the most part of last season (as was Provy). So no, I'm not giving away assets and a huge contract for him.

About two weeks ago someone threw out the idea of Konency and Ghost for Patrick Laine. Sorry all, but if that offer we’re on the table, there would be no second thoughts about pulling that trigger.

So you want to subtract 2 of your top 6 dman to add him? How does this help the team?

If I remember correctly, Eric Wellwood was also one of our faster skaters before suffering his career-ending injury?

Farwell loved his feet. Homer saw quickly there wasn't too much else, but Jones could fly.

didn't watch the game just highlights. How did twarynski look? on the one goal he seemed to just be standing there. He and anderoff were minus 2 in the game. Hard to read stats but seemed like NAk had a descent game.

NAK was noticeable to me. TS very rusty. Second game in a row they were the slower and less physical team. Gabriel was advertised as rough and tumble, but he dropped the gloves and then up and quit.

Lethal combo of a sloppy preseason game and the brutal monotone voice of the Isles female play by play. You didn't miss much.
