MDC has been OK, certainly better than Ladd, but that has become a very low bar. He works hard but still does not use his size to great enough effect, lacks puck possession skills and is a horrible shooter. Still a work in progress and there is upside yet to be realized but by no means is he assured of future NHL level success unless he keeps working on all aspects of his game.

So do you offer him a contract ?if so, what terms . Thanks

As always, that will be a function of what is available to replace what he brings but assuming they would want to re-sign him, at this stage of his development he is a bottom six, $1M to $1.5M x 2 yr player IMO. Need to see a lot more before any major commitment.

I would expect they don’t call anyone up but Bailey is possibly hurt now as well so it’s possible someone is called up

RIP Ho-Sang in this organization.



Lou did say the same thing before Fritz got the call - B port plays tonight, so Ho-Sang better make a statement.

3 games left in the season - with Wahlstrom and Bobo now added to the roster in B port and Sislo back from injury - Free Ho-Sang

Komarov spotted in at C yesterday. Was 56% from the dot. plan looks like he will play C until Filppula is back. Did get a pt playing C and was +2.

He can't score to save his life, but give Leo credit, he has made some very nice tape to tape passes of late. Not just last night and not everyone has finished for him, but some really sweet dishes. You had to do a double-take to be sure it was really UL when you saw them, at least I did.

Komarov can be sheltered as long as he is with good skaters. When Filppula’s legs got less fresh as the year went on, that line’s effectiveness started to dwindle.

That was true, but it was also evident across the board. Everyone, including UL, seems to have caught their second wind.

The importance of the Winnipeg win can't be overstated in terms of re-energizing this team.
