If we can get Hanifin for something less than a 1st then yes, but that is highly unlikely. I'd rather take baby steps and go get Zadorov for a 2nd.
I thought it was four because I thought he had one on the Carcone goal in the last min of the 2nd. Guess it wasn’t Cooley.A sneaky three points by Cooley
Goalies are above average as a tandem. Defense is bottom 5. This team is only expecting to get 80-90pts anyway. And they’re on pace to do that. Everything is mostly going as planned.We are really not very good. Goaltending and Defense are amongst the worst in the league. We were fortunate their goalie was very bad tonight. A W is a W, but this game has to keep coaches and the front office awake at night. Try that crap against Dallas and see what happens!
6.5 for around -120ishWhat was the over/under for total goals??
I'm torn. I really think Hanafin (extended) would be very good for bringing up our prospects. Zadorov would be a nice consolation though.If we can get Hanifin for something less than a 1st then yes, but that is highly unlikely. I'd rather take baby steps and go get Zadorov for a 2nd.
Gotta hope he signs with us in that situation though.I say pump the brakes on Hanifin. Chase him in the summer. Keep hoarding picks in the meantime
Yep. Tied with Bedard with 11 points. Problem is Bedard has 7 goals.A sneaky three points by Cooley
Carcone needs to stay up. Boyd does not. Can't Jenik come up for Boyd?Just watched the highlights…crazy game. That second goal by Carcone was actually FILTHY. I guess most would say that “the goalie should had that one,” and that’s probably true…but that wasn’t luck by Carcone, just a nice quick change of angle snipe that caught him off guard. He’s definitely got more skills than I gave him credit for…
Jenik for Boyd would be awesome. Especially with McBain out. We could use the sandpaper. I like LOB-Kerfoot-Jenik as a 4th line.6.5 for around -120ish

Didn’t even need a Carcone sucks thread.Everyone ripping on Carcone last night had some positive effect.
OuchMcBain is now week to week.
The way it sounds, you spend a lot of time in the bathroom.I step out of my office for a minute, they score.
Just like last night… sigh.
I have been beating that drum for the last two weeks. Our PP is what keeps us going, along with the other lines doing pretty good 5on5.Positive: The power play is good.
Negative: 5on5, our top line has a combined 4 goals.
Nope… at work.The way it sounds, you spend a lot of time in the bathroom.
I feel like simply putting Kolyachonok and Soderstom into the lineup would give us the improvement we're looking for.Goalies are above average as a tandem. Defense is bottom 5. This team is only expecting to get 80-90pts anyway. And they’re on pace to do that. Everything is mostly going as planned.
I will say we can’t keep having 2/3 of Dermott, Brown and Stecher in the lineup. We could really use another good defenseman. Dumba isn’t playing well. Valimaki is ok but hasn’t taken another step. Moser-Durzi is great but should really be a 2nd pair. We need another solid blueliner. Give me Ferraro or Zadorov or maybe even Lauzon.
you are right, the goal tending is ~ average. I guess old ways die hard; I am so used to being an abused Coyote fan that its hard not be overly critical of every flaw. Did Babe Ruth get us cursed too?Goalies are above average as a tandem. Defense is bottom 5. This team is only expecting to get 80-90pts anyway. And they’re on pace to do that.

I know who did this. And how the did it:
our Defense is just on another level of bad. Brown can't defend at all, Stecher is not much better and now I know why Calgary never gave Valimaki a shot...he's been atrocious. I thought Dumba would actually help, but nope, not yet anyway.
Imagine how much better the team would be if the Defense was actually mediocre. Moser has probably been our best defender outside of Dermott's first 3 games.
At this point, can Kolyachonok or Soderstrom be any worse? I don't think so and maybe, just maybe they will be better.
