That's odd because Steel and Mahura were teammates in the WHL.
Must have had a falling out or arguing over who's gonna get waived first.

Two of the softest on the team trying to make earn a spot.... Actually make that 3 with French Terry. I don't know if going after Zegras is the best idea to do that though....

 

[Mr Rogers]

I’ve had more than enough of Lettieri this season lol

 

[Leonardo87]

Zegras was hard on himself on that GW goal against, and admitted he made a poor judgement pass. Hopefully he learns from this. To acknowledge the issue, is the first step.

Eakins nonchalant attitude all the time rubs me the wrong way (not just talking about this event)

Eakins is super soft.. that's why he gets no respect.

The worst. What a waste that such a great shot is in the hands of such a lousy player

Vinni is one of those too good for AHL, useless in NHL type dudes.

Like an even worse version of Pirri.

 

[The Midnight Burrito]

We do need spots for the kids to take. I guess I just see limited space for veteran upgrades so I want to target more high end talent. Maybe it's unrealistic

Can do both. Anyway, all of the kids we have that are ready for top 6 roles are already on the team, no one else is particularly close. Adding a decent midlevel veteran or three really isn't going to block anyone.

I'll paraphrase Paul Kariya here: why don't you assholes do this during the games?

 

[Deuce22]

Near the bottom of the "shooter only" NHL spectrum. Laine/Sprong/Pirri/Letteri.

Its like he goes to Yoga everyday, is Vegan and all that is missing is the socks with sandals combo, the manbun and neck beard.

Don't forget the kale smoothie before practice.

How did i forget the kale smoothie lol.

Its like this team needs Johnny Lawrence to come in and coach the team with his Eagle Fang(Formerly Cobra Kai) mentality.
Eakins with his Miyagi-Do is not cutting it anymore.

Lmaoo tell me about it!!

 

[Mr Rogers]

Eakins and MacKinnon are a match made in heaven

Chickpea pasta and kale smoothies, baby. That's how championships are born.

 

[TheGoodShepard1]

I see we have moved the discussion from alpha players to alpha coach. Good change of pace from this board

To add to this hipster narrative, In an interview earlier this year Eakins peculiarly went out of his way to say he only drinks three things: Water, black coffee with no sugar or milk (yes, he did specify that and reiterate just plain black coffee) and pinot noir.

We don't need no beta cuck coach!

 

[Hockey Duckie]

Verbeek didnt want manson because of concussion history... GMs tend to put injury history as a factor..

Verbeek did trade for a defenseman in Vaaks that started his concussion history, tho.

Yes Sensei !

Head Coach Johnny Lawrence: Strike first, Strike hard, no mercy.
Score first, hit hard and keep adding to the lead instead of 'cruise control in the 3rd period'.
