Waived: Danny DeKeyser

Amazing comeback for DDK, he's actually playing well. Crosschecked a guy down and threw a body check as well.

I want the name of his chiropractor....

Been wondering the same. What a heck happened? Just got rest and now he is totally new guy.`?

I know, he looked like total garbage in his first game back. My only guess is that he found a chiropractor that managed to pop his spine back into place, he really is like a whole new player in a span of less than a week.

I already told the story about how my back popped into place and I was fine for a few months... but then it came back.

I imagine his play will go in waves.

Danny is flying a little under the radar in a more sheltered role. He is being used as a defensive 4/5 D man and is holding down the Fort reasonably well. Definitely over paid for the role he is in but he is bringing some decent results despite coming off a significant injury. Good to see

He's definitely helped Hronek's game too.

I just never want to see him in a 3-on-3 OT situation with another slow or defensively-challenged player again. Already cost us at least 2 games, in the last month or so.

Blashill's propensity to use slow players in OT is definitely baffling.

The only thing I can surmise here is that they don't strategize or practice OT because they expect to lose in regulation, lol.

Maybe the purpose is TANK and not take that extra point.

If that was the case, he'd just send out Djoos or 3 forwards.

My best guess is that he's hoping for low event hockey to send it to the SO. I remember Gagner got some OT time before his injury. I don't think he's ever played in OT before.

If the team wanted to win, LGD would be out for the FO then have him change if he wins the FO, stay and defend if he loses. I'd really like to see better OT strategy.

 

[Ed Ned and Leddy]

The injuries have really done a number on Dekeyser, he's been dire this year. I wouldn't be surprised if he's LTIRetired the last year of his deal. I just don't see another season in him.

Dekeyser, Glendening and Namestnikov should be stapled to the bench in OT or when we need goals.
