So when does Buch start playing games again?
Likely has something to do with the whole he hasn't played with his team since September thing and half his team is new.
Also add in to he hasn't played at that slow a pace since September.
Did you expect him to fly out of the gate like nothing happened these past months?
He had 2 breakaways and another partial break in this game. 1st one the goalie made a nice pad save, the 2nd one he hit the post and the 3rd one he was pushed by the defenseman and got a goalie interference call. Goals will come!
I really appreciate the updates you've been giving us on Duke. Thanks a lot.
Anything less than 3 PPG pace and he's a bust.
Huge brawl in the Minn.-Wisc. game. Skjei just speared a guy. No, not with the stick. Edge style spear.
It's not rocket science, with the Staal signing, most likely, only 2 of MSL, Hagelin and MZA will be staying. I think the smartest move would be to retain the players who help drive more offense in MSL and MZA. On top of that, Hagelin is a RFA and could garner a return of assets which the other 2 could not after the season as they are UFA's.
MSL + MZA + Assets from trading Hagelin > Hagelin + MSL/MZA
Agree completely.
I love Hags but unfortunately he's the odd man out.

Problem with moving Hags is there goes maybe our fastest player. Also a great pk'er---and a more affordable contract.
Don't think MSL is going anywhere. Rangers gave up too much to get him and that includes their first rounder in the upcoming draft. OTOH I can see MSL accepting less money. After all he's here by choice--he's not quite the same player as he was--and it's good for the team. That however is just conjecture on my part.
