2017-18 Roster Talk: Part Ten

[deadhead]

The whole problem is Sanheim, he's physically the most talented D-man on the team, and second only to Myers in the organization.
When he turns it on, you see the potential behind his combination of size, speed and skill.

But mentally he's just so erratic, it's not that he makes mistakes, but that his mistakes are consistently doozies. [and yes, he got away with another bad gaffe last night).
I think Hakstol wants Gudas to "babysit" him for now, same reason I think MacDonald is with Provorov (we keep forgetting he's 20).
When Sanheim stops with the constant mindfarts, he's going to see his minutes approach 20 a game, and get 2nd PP time.
But right now, I don't blame any coach for being scared of playing him, he can win games for both teams in a single period!

I know you are being fecetious, but in case others didn't know that, he is not tanking, he is just a ****ing moron.

I just assumed everyone knows this by now.

I didn't mean to ever post this again, but you forced me...

When?

But but we are rebuildingggg. Remember? Who cares.

 

[Striiker]

The Sanheim-hate is approaching Ghost-hate levels of ridiculousness.

Meanwhile, not a single bad word about the actual problems on the roster.

Defending Hakstol is all that matters. Reality be damned.

 

[Curufinwe]

Gudas should be playing 19-20 minutes like he did last year.

Neuvirth is ready to play, but doesn't know if he'll be activated for tomorrow.

 

[Curufinwe]

What has the AIT been since Gudas came back fron suspension. I did not watch the game last night. Did not know Ghost got dinged

What Sanheim hate?

I think he's more talented than Ghost and will end up a better defenseman, as he fills out, he'll be able to hold his own in the D-zone (right now he struggles in the board battles). He's faster than Ghost, and for a guy his size, moves really well through traffic with the puck.
But he's really erratic right now, something hopefully he'll work through as he gains experience.
And to deny that, you'd have to be freakin' blind, delusional or both.

You can appreciate the talent of a prospect, and still note that said prospect simply isn't NHL ready, right now.
One problem with a rebuild is living through your prospects growing pains.

To be fair, its 2 or 3 that hate on Sanheim and those aren't serious accounts

I got bored, so I did some CapFriendly GM stuff for next year.

Giroux-Couturier-Simmonds
Konecny-Patrick-Voracek
Leier-Laughton-Martel
Lindblom-Raff (Maybe?)-Weal
Weise

Provy-Gudas
Morin-Ghost
Sanheim-Myers
Friedman

Neuvy traded this year and AMac bought out.

PP1:
Giroux-Couts-Simmonds
Ghost-Voracek

PP2:
Konecny-Patrick-Martel
Provy-Sanheim

I really, really want Hak to consider having Provy and Sanheim on the blueline together on the PP. I was thinking of giving Frost another year in the OHL before making any sort of actual step into the NHL, even though he's been fantastic in OHL. I think the same should be done for Rubtsov and Vorobyov in their positions (another year in their leagues, or at least, both in the AHL).

Forget Martel, Hextall don't like smurfs, he has too many

Giroux-Couturier-xxxx [Simmons should be traded]
Raffl-Patrick-Voracek
Lindblom-Vorobyev-Konecny
Leier/Weal-Laughton-NAK or Laughton - MV - NAK
MV, Weise

Provy-Ghost
Sanheim-Gudas
Morin-Myers
Hagg

 

[KrazyKat]

I think next year will be something like this

Giroux--Couturier--Simmonds
Lindblom--Patrick--Voracek
Kane--Frost--Konecny
Laughton--Vorobyev--Raffl

Waiting for the hate on the Kane signing. And frost being 3c ahahha... just predictions

Hey, by any chance are you still waiting for that bad gaffe from last night?

 

[Stizzle]

I haven't read one bad thing about Sanheim. I guess my ignore list is doing it's job.

 

[Striiker]

I haven't read one bad thing about Sanheim. I guess my ignore list is doing it's job.

Basically a few are claiming that he's way too erratic, untrustworthy, and prone to screw ups.

Meanwhile, the guys in the roster who actually should be described that way are defended by these same people.

Sanheims a rookie and rookies shouldn't be used a lot...unless you're Hagg, in which case your blocks, hits, and +/- mean you're fine.

 

[Striiker]

Speaking of +/-...

Shoutout to anyone who wanted to act like a good +/- is a legitimate defense of Hagg.

By this same logic, turns out Ghost is equally as good defensively as Provorov, since they have identical +/-'s.

League leading P/GP for defensemen and Provorovs level of defense... must be one of the best players in the league. I wonder if the people who constantly bash him will change their minds in light of this information.

 

[Striiker]

16:25

In that same time period...

MacDonald - 21:52
Hagg - 18:13

Giroux--Couturier--Simmonds
Lindblom--Patrick--Voracek
Kane--Frost--Konecny
Laughton--Vorobyev--Raffl

I missed these. Don't ever change.

Who is constantly bashing Ghost?

Me neither.

 

[NYCFlyer]

Deadhead and hatcher

Calder runner up and clearly top ten offensive Dman in the league and maybe top 3 or 4 on the PP, great getting through the neutral zone, great anticipation. Don't see how anyone could dispute that. Is he Ivan Provorov on defense? No but certainly solid in awareness, gaps, stick etc. Is Getzlaff going to rag doll him in the corners ? Of course he rag dolls most defenders, Ghost he can do with one arm..

I don't bad mouth I just see him like championships teams would see him. 3rd pair pp player and that's it.
