1984Echoes Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 They need to find a Shanahan or two in the draft. They need scoring and toughness/ grit. Especially... Both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1984Echoes Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 PS: The Islanders pick looks like it has a serious chance of finishing 14-16th... at which we keep it this year. There's your second player buddha! If Stevie Y can find the right two that is... There are a lot of potential power forward/ bigger bodies with talent types around that area: Matthew Wood, Ryan Leonard, Calum Ritchie, Quentin Musty (I'm just rattling off names from scouting reports...). I'll leave it up to SY to select his guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buddha Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 i thought edvinsson looked good. getting stuck with bottom pairing forwards probably cost him a couple points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1984Echoes Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 Freewheeling shootout at St Louis tonight... 2-2 after 1. Simon sitting out a game after that hip-check he took yesterday...

1984Echoes Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 (edited) Luff didn't touch that. It went off the Blues' defender's skate. And then ricocheted twice off the goalie (right skate left knee) before sliding in for the score... Simon is a Pinball Wizard!!!

buddha Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 raymond has been a real disappointment this season. seider's first half of the season was bad, but he really picked it up when he got paired with walman. but raymond has not been good. too small and gets pushed around. this whole season was sort of a feel good affair until that ottawa series. that was such an utter ass whooping that laid bare the disparity between the two teams that it signaled a big sell off and a reset of expectations. theyre now on the raymond/seider timeline. larkin will be around as captain but everyone else is peripheral. they need all their top yzerman-era picks to hit and to sign someone like a nylander. some top offensive player. that's assuming the defensive talent they have pans out. i have a lot of trust in yzerman and still feel that he inherited one of the worst teams in nhl history and has had zero lottery luck to help. the only misstep might have been spending last offseason instead of going full tank. i mean, go back and look at the last three or four holland drafts. theyre abysmal. but we'll see. i have a lot of hope for kasper and edvinsson has surprised me a bit with how well he's looked in his debut. wallinder, mazur, johansson, buium, sebrango, buchelnikov, there's a lot of promise out there and multiple #1s in multiple drafts coming up. im still hopeful, but still wary of them being able to do it without getting the league to take pity on them and give them a top two pick this year.

I’m not sure I feel much better about our young talent in 2023 than I did in 2013 with Nyquist, Tatar, Jurco, B. Smith, DeKeyser, Oullett, Sproul, Jurco and Mrazek all on the team or in the system and all ages 23 and under. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
