GDT: #73| FLYERS at Wild | Thurs., March 23, 2017 | 8:00 pm ET | FS-N, FS-WI, CSN-PH

[Beef Invictus]

What did that Schenn wipeout measure on the Richter Scale?

Engineers are scrambling to inspect the arena foundation.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

If I were him, I would register a website named "www.dubnykdubnykdubnyk"
That would rule.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Happy Birthday, JJ - you're better than most of the others.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Andy drops his stick for no real reason

 

[BrindamoursNose]

Imagine we get Bishop, but if not there will be plenty of options in the 2-3 mill range. Will it be better than this year, I would hope so but def not a long term solution.

Bishop has identical stats to Mason aside from last year.

They're the same goalie basically. It'd be a terrible mistake to go out and pay Bishop.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Ok that was some nifty skating by Andy

 

[Striiker]

If I had no idea where the Wild were in the standings, and judged them solely on this game, I'd think they were fighting us for a lottery pick. We're getting more quality chances against them than we usually do against awful teams.

Bishop also has a terrible glove hand

 

[Rebels57]

Id rather take a shot on Darling than throw a big contract at Bishop

 

[MacDonald4MVP]

If Wild can't score on Manning Schultz in here they shouldn't really win the cup. If anyone should do it I would rather it be leafs and be ****ed by the insane raises it would mean for their youngsters.

i saw a NHL feature the other day, they figure Darling will be the primo goalie to get the big contract this off season.

he wants to be the clear #1 somewere.

And a year and a half older.

Same. I do not want Bishop.

I don't think Bishop is getting a big deal from anyone other than Vegas.
His cap hit will be 5 or less for 4 yrs is my guess.

I don't want him either tho, go cheap and pray we have our starter in house.

 

[Flyerfan4life]

here comes the prevent defense...

 

[Rebels57]

Darling could end up getting a bigger than desirable deal too with the way the goalie market is this summer

 

[bennysflyers16]

Id rather take a shot on Darling than throw a big contract at Bishop

Remember when emery was 21-1 on the Hawks !!! Too risky to go more than 2 yrs.

 

[Flyerfan4life]

wow that feed to Simmer from Weal was a thing of beauty if it connected

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

This is the team everyone thought Minnesota would be when the season started.

 

[Flyerfan4life]

ummmm Roo...


prevent defense is go...

 

[MacDonald4MVP]

Bishops only knock against him he is brittle, wouldn't expect many too big of a term.

 

[BrindamoursNose]

If we don't sign Mason, I don't want to sign anyone in net. Seriously.

We're in a complete lose-lose at goaltender, IMO once Mason leaves (I know, someone would say that's also a lose. But we know he CAN be great here).

If we sign someone, they will be mediocre most likely. UNLESS we pay for the top guys, who will get grossly overpaid.

I'd so much rather just roll with Stolarz and Neuvirth (if he is here), accept that we'll be bad (but not pay out the wazoo) for mediocre goaltending. Use whatever we would've paid a goaltender to bring in forward/D depth.

Good thing he kept TK under 10 mins tonight too, rest him up old fella

 

[BrindamoursNose]

Agreed. I want nothing to do with Darling at whatever price he wants (which will be too much).

 

[Rebels57]

I think Giroux is in on the tank lol

Total brain fart on that icing.
