I wonder if we see another Hagel type move with Koepke and Foote going the other way this year

Just watched the game delayed but a few things... firstly, this is what stands out to me. Koepke is a warm body much like Raddysh or Katchouk. Foote is a bit more valuable but if Bogo comes back, we still have Fleury in the press box or even Myers should we hit another injury spell.

Secondly, Perbix (and Serg) had themselves a really good game. Hagel's whiff was hilarious but his forechecking is pretty damn good. Kuch is the second best player in the league, I don't care what Edmonton fans have to say. Elliot and Comrie played amazing! Goaltending battle. Both came up with game saving stops. We definitely need a another forward. With Cirelli coming back soon, that will push Paul down or strengthen the third line but I would still like a speedy winger added to the group. Nhl quality. Koepke looks no different than Raddysh to me, minus Raddysh scoring the odd goal.

After tonight Kuch is top 3 in scoring.


Aaaachooo....

I don't think Foote has a shred of value at this point. Well, no, but not anything close to what brought Hagel in.

Hagel cost a lot for his age and his contract, IMO. I feel like we'd have to pay for it again, if something like that was out there. Not sure if either Foote or Koepke are worth more than, what? A 3rd?

What is it with NHL players and orange beards anyway? I swear I don't see them anywhere else.

This is me haha

maybe package them and a pick to Nashville for Tolvanen

This is a recurring issue we had before winning B2B as well: when Point and Kuch are on the same line, that leaves Stammer "alone" on the second. He needs someone that complements his scoring and playmaking touch. And unless Cirelli takes a huge step up in offensive capabilities and production, his return won't fill that gap.

This is why getting Name this summer was a big head scratch for me, he's not the kind of player that complements Stammer IMO
When I see Name 2.5M AAV and see that Detroit signed Kubalik for the same AAV, fuuuck me man. I was wishing so bad that we would get him.

Nice...real nice.

Dont miss very many...dads bday

Nice win!

Top line looked good all night. Thought Perbix looked great even before he scored. Looks like a solid NHL Dman to me, which helps. Still need one or two more of those.

We need our Bogo to make Publix complete.

 

[FinnLightning26]

Really glad to see Perbix score. He's been mostly very solid since his debut. He makes an occasional gaffe but he looks like a ten year vet compared to our rotating cast of jolly jokers on the third pair.

There was a point in the Giroux/Voracek years when it seemed like Philly had just gone all in on ginger. In that famous game where they fought the Penguins all night, there were like 5 red beards in the box at the same time.

2004 Flyers and 2004 Flames. I'm pretty sure everybody on those two teams except Iginla had an orange beard. I'm also pretty sure if he grew it out it would've turned orange.
