Erik Condra's role

[Burrowsaurus]

Neil should only be played when we expect a physical game, or in the playoffs. His skating is not NHL level anymore.

nothing about him is NHL level anymore. except his `heart`.. or whatever. he should be played in rivalry games.. but not the average run of the mill game where we just need to go out there and play hockey.

I haven't even noticed and bone-crushing hits from Neil lately..

I think he had one against DET. Behind the net, I can't remember exactly whom against.

I think it was against Jamie Rivers in 2005.

 

[Sensinitis]

Was against Kronwall. Nice hit.

 

[Lenny the Lynx]

Condra point streak: 2 games and counting

 

[BigBush*]

A combination of two of Smith, Niel, or Greening cannot play on the same line. Also, Condra must play on the opposite wing of one of these players to help balance out the line from completely sucking

 

[BankStreetParade]

Neil, Legwand, Phillips and Weircioch need to sit. These guys single handedly cause 8-10 turnovers and scoring opportunities per game.

Trade Bait.

Are you serious? Those 2 were far and away the best forwards against the Panthers... Among the few who looked like men and weren't pushed around. They also created the only 2 goals the Sens scored.

Phillips is on the 1st pairing when he should be on the 3rd (Methot is injured, so how is it Phillips fault?)

Wiercioch is a 7th at best right now, not sure what is going on with him this year. He looks half the player he looked before.

Condra must have taken all those healthy scratches super cereal. I've never seen him play so good.

think i remember him looking this good when he played with turris for a while. he played with turris right?

To be fair he always played really good and especially defensively. He's always been a good player but only problem is he can't finish.

I don't even know why he got scratched so many games because he was playing good every time he was inserted in the lineup.

Word. He was excellent in shortened season and he was clutch in his rookie year too.

Condra always been subtly good.

 

[Ice-Tray]

What the heck is up with this guy all of a sudden. He has more prime scoring chances than most players on the team, and he generally creates them all himself. He is excellent on the PK, and crazy tenacious when on the ice. He is rounding into a great 4th line winger/pk'er, maybe even a great shutdown winger who creates offence.

Now, if he could only score on all of the chances he generates... But still...

If Condra would score on 10% of his quality chances I'm pretty sure he would be a consistent 15 goal guy.

Crazy, and he creates so much of it himself by driving the net with the puck, or forcing breakaways on the PK

 

[Derivation]

Is Condra as good as gone at the deadline? Could be a help for a team who needs a PKer and a 4th line winger who can forecheck and create offense.

He's always had a high hockey IQ, and he's always putting himself in a position to score. Condra's slowly learning how to actually pot a few goals now. I'd keep him around IMO, his value on the market isn't worth acquiring compared to what he brings to our team.

There are many players I'd send packing before him.

Hope not, call me crazy but i would certainly look at re-signing this guy...does so many little things that many on our team are unable/unwilling to do.

Can be said for quite a few players but imo he would probably be a superstar with more speed and touch around the net.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Yeah, if we can keep him at a good price, I don't see why not. Plays his role effectively and can kill penalties.

 

[Real Smart Sens Fan]

I suspect he'll be reupped at around 1.5-1.75 per.

 

[Vesa Awesaka]

I wouldnt care if he were kept or traded. Does his job and we basically know what he is at this point in his career. We could probably find similar players in FA. If we could find a guy who fills his role and is a safe bet to put up 30-40 points i'd be very happy even if he costs 2 mil more then Condra.

 

[Icelevel]

i like him and wouldn't mind if he stayed. The only reason I might want to see him traded is because I also like Robinson and think he has bottom 6 RW potential as well.
Could be a downgrade overall, could be an upgrade. I'd probably do that though. Changes need to be made and Buddy is very fast and big and i like that.

I take Robinson and a 5th (condra return) over just condra.

As a plugger on a 4th line.
