GDT: Around the League

[GrumpyKelly]

Brodie sucks and would be what we have already. Hamonic would interest me.

Hamonic hasn't been great either when I've seen him play. But we're talking about having them as a bottom pairing guys so I think either would work. But yeah would prefer Hamonic.

The bigger point is to move on from Hoff. He's a detriment to any line he plays on and isn't scoring nearly enough to justify the baggage. After having five goals in the first four games he's had eight in 36 which is an 18 goal pace for the season. We've had guys like Boyes and Pirri in the past who scored +20 goals and were out of a job at the end of the year. Hoff should be moved while he still has value, I think any team who signs him to a long term extension will regret it.

He almost became the Panthers coach.

Agreed. Hoffman's play has gotten to the point where he needs to be moved. Adds little of no value to the team in any facet and should be moved before the league realizes he's trash.

Laviolette is done in Nashville

Oilers helping us out tonight leading Toronto 6-3 with less than ten minutes to go in the 3rd. What a goal by McDavid (the 6th goal). Wow!

EDIT: Here's the goal

Isles get absolutely dominated but their goalie stands on his head for the shutout. The myth that isles team d is elite is just plain wrong. Their goaltending is unreal. Countless times an Avs player all alone in front and varlamov
Makes a huge save. Saves that our board would deem no chance for bob and bad d.

I watched 30 minutes and I had seen enough. Avs didn't get anything going. Probably because of Trotz system again

Looks like Yandle getting skated around, defense wouldn't have been blamed at all for that one.

First period they did nothing. Completely dominated rest of game

Now the isles have bad D lol. You’re something else.

Put it this way. They gave up a lot More chances against and high danger chances than buffalo got against us. Simple as that

Please give it a rest, dude. Blah blah blah same shit everyday. You rail on people for their criticisms of Matheson, because they don't acknowledge any of the good plays he makes....but here you are doing the same to Bob. No one has said Bob is stellar, Bob is great, Bob can do no wrong....they have only said that it all is intertwined with each other. It's tired and stale, give it a rest.

Holy reading comprehension, there's quite a gap between elite and bad

 

[Boothinator]

Nashville will announce Hynes as HC..... Looooool

The islanders are an elite defensive team and it’s not really debatable. It’s funny how both Islanders goalies are putting up great stats.

Their goalies wear extra large blockers.

There is a reason our games with them are ending up in a low scoring game . Greiss can make the easy saves becuase of their D

Bob can’t even make the easy saves is my point
