Watching now. What a bouncing sauce by Zary to backs. My goodness.
Honestly, if people do their research and look at guys that signed contracts around that time and since, it's not a bad contract, it's not a deal by any means, but it's not at all had. Fans seem to forget that contracts are always rising, like people bitching about 7m for Naz, and claiming he's paid like a 1C, a f***ing 1C these days makes 10+; Naz is paid 2C money. If Lindholm gets 8.5, guess what? That's also 2C money
Coleman is a consistent 15+ goal, 30+ point forward, he's going to be on the 3rd line, even on a very good team. If he's on our 4th line, our depth would be amazingI think if we turn into a contender (or slightly above bubble team) and young guys compete and prove themselves offensively he drops down the lineup in a fairly short period of time. He's a slightly more skilled but more consistent, better defensive Dube basically. IMO. The second he can't push himself like he does or his legs start to go at 5'11" and 31 yrs old it could be a steep, noticeable decline and then we're looking at a 4.9 m av salary for the last 3 years. 5.9 this year is on the high side for my liking. His game is so reliant on his character/work ethic. Anyway, I'm not hating the contract as much as I was because he's so consistent in his effort, responsibility and coinciding contribution. I guess we'll see what happens.
It might be optimism, but I can only remember the shadow of that feeling.What is this feeling I'm having in my hockey team? Pride? Is that it maybe? Been a while.

I was agnostic at the start but boy this starts looking like a decent trade, plus anyone will rack the pts next to certain MR Hughes.Just tossing this out there...
Rango has 8 points in his last 10 games
Toffoli has 5 points in his last 10 games
You know since everyone loved to compare them when Tyler Foli was on his early season hot streak
Hey Rubi, cheer up man, we can do this!The world as we know it is f***ed up. I'm cheering for Oiler wins and Flames losses. Tank baby tank.
Been saying this regularly, boy is a great 4th liner.Maybe Dube just belongs on the 4th line. Seems to do his best work there
Have not doubted him one moment, get behind this guy fellas. Extremely calm,pragmatic and meticulous. Keeps playing and benching the right guys. I would call up Coronato for Nash instead of playing Walker but that's just me.How about a little love for Ryan Huska?
Been exactly what this team needs.
The "wow" was goldenLove Backlund's reaction to Zary's pass.
Remember when James Neal went to Edmonton and had a dozen pucks go in off his jock in the first week?Just tossing this out there...

Yes, I made the joke last night and @Boomstick put Dube's face on the DVD coverDube Does Dallas is the thread title I just thought of for this after the fact. Has that joke been made before?
It might be optimism, but I can only remember the shadow of that feeling.

It was actually @JPeeper who made it. I can't take credit, it was all him.Yes, I made the joke last night and @Boomstick put Dube's face on the DVD cover
