GDT: Game 6: Wild @ Oilers - 8PM CDT

[MK9]

Guerin in his office.

 

[BagHead]

Generally a good defensive player, the offensive side of his game was way overblown because he got some points playing with Fiala and Boldy

Him and Foligno is not a good environment for Rossi to be in

One of those turnovers was in the defensive zone. He isn't good there either right now.

 

[MNNumbers]

This is perhaps finally the year in which good fortune and strong effort, which has gotten us 100 points in the last 2 years, finally runs out, and there is regression to the mean, and we end up with what we should have, a decent draft pick.

Somehow, it has seemed to me in the last 2 years, that we have overachieved by a wide margin.

 

[Obvious Fabertism]

Give it to Faber Zucc!

Only when it didn’t matter

As much as most of this board hates Foligno and Goligoski's contracts, this is the one that bothers me.

How big of a raise is he going to get on his next 4 year NMC contract?

 

[Webster]

Word is Leipold has smashed another monitor in his suite

If you love this franchise at all, Darby, you will shove Evason into a closet. Then, at the very least, you will put Rossi on the top line.

In my defense I said generally

I will say it's a little harder to say this today, Hartman has had a good game.

That works. Break up Kap/Zucc. Call me crazy, but Rossi looks a hell of a lot more confident than Kap right now. After watching these last two periods, what can it possibly hurt to move him up?

 

[Obvious Fabertism]

Well at least we are getting the NHL mandated 2-3 PPs this upcoming period so we can get some time on the ESPN production, maybe Kapostov finally breaks through with one of his patented 3rd period explosions.

 

[Obvious Fabertism]

Depends on what Toronto thinks he is worth.

 

[Webster]

Yeah Gaudreau, I forgot he's playing

 

[Soldier13Fox]

Hartman!

 

[Sweetnut]

Yeah Gaudreau, I forgot he's playing

No worries, he only got 5 years left on his M-NTC contract

 

[Obvious Fabertism]

Sick!!! Hartman!

 

[16thOverallSaveUs]

That Zuccarello pass was nasty. This line has been moving

 

[The Enemy Within]

Yes, it's all tied up!

 

[NHL1674]

I go to scoop litter and they tie it up?

Go go Wild! Finish him

I'm just here to open cans.

Kap dancing

 

[Nino Noderreiter]

After the disappointment in the playoff series and the first few games I knew Kaprizov wasn’t playing well, but I forgot what good a Kaprizov looks like. Wow — need to remember to not take it for granted.

 

[Obvious Fabertism]

Anyone but #4
