[BUCKLE UP]

Hopefully he solves the D problem

 

[dumbdick]

Knee jerk

 

[Yourkeyparka]

He has speed to get to the puck and enough defensive awareness to help us. Kelly has to come out - can't keep up anymore. White will play 3rd line wing w Pageau and Pyatt I hope.

 

[Deku]

I hope they scratch Kelly for him

 

[DanyHeatley]

Has 1g 1a in 2 games with Binghamton. So immediate impact right away

 

[Flamingo]

Finally! We sure took long enough to rush his development.

This is the right move. Should have had had him up in Boston.

Isnt it 1g 2a in 3 games ?

 

[Senscore]

With Smith out this should help.

 

[DrEasy]

They'll reactivate Neil just so they can put White on a line with him and Kelly to teach him intangibles and leadership.

 

[BondraTime]

As we said, what was the point of the ATO? He should have been signed immediately. But, nahh

 

[Very Stable Genius]

Hopefully Boucher doesn't muzzle him. Let him play his game and make mistakes if he has to

 

[aragorn]

We always kind of expected this was going to happen, it was probably part of the negotiations & I assume he will get into one of the Detroit games to burn the yr.

 

[Yourkeyparka]

I expect Mr. coaching genius Boucher to figure a way out of this mess. Ha has 5 games to show us his true worth. His olayer deployment and leadership skills will tell us a lot about his supposed brilliance. This is when we have to see it - prove it now Boucher.

Things were fine when they were negotiating. Downhill slide since then. Melnyk had to smash the glass case around his "Push to allow Dorion to spend in case of playoff revenue slipping away" emergency button.

 

[Korpse]

As we said, what was the point of the ATO? He should have been signed immediately. But, nahh

NCAA to NHL is a big step. I don't really have an issue with testing him out in the AHL to see if he is ready. Also wouldn't be surprised if someone who played last night is banged up and won't be able to play tomorrow.

No guarantee he draws in tomorrow but when he does I suspect it will be on the bottom line. I'd like to see him playing along side Dzingel.

 

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

BRING ON THE FUTURE.

yes.

 

[Super Cake]

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Nice. Keep things interesting while the **** hits the fan.

 

[Viletho]

BRING ON THE FUTURE.

yes.

It won't happen but i would be ready to go
Brassard-Turris-Ryan
Hoffman-White-Stone
Pyatt-Pageau-Stalberg
Burrows-Wingel-Dzingle

Brassard is a center, i know, but he can switch with Turris depending on which side the faceoff is taking.

I really would like to see a line of Hoffman-White-Stone. That could be lethal.

But it probably won't happen this year.

I think White comes in on a Boucher request.

 

[Ser Grogu]

Yeah, Mr. White!

 

[Super Cake]

His nickname should be Heisenberg.

 

[dingbatz]

Yeah, Mr. White!

His nickname should be Heisenberg.

I like it.

 

[aragorn]

Should be interesting to see who White replaces on the roster when he finally gets here, maybe Burrows or Stalberg, if they are still not exactly 100% or Kelly. My guess is they give Burrows a little more rest at his age.

I think they put him with Pageau & Pyatt to get his feet wet, start him off with two good defensive forwards & get him to play a good defensive game & not worry about scoring goals in his first game. Then they can load up with Hoffman back in the top 6 where he belongs & hopefully generate more offence.

Hoffman - Turris - Stone
Dzingel - Brassard - Ryan
Pyatt - Pageau - White
Stalberg - Kelly - Wingels
