TBH, the D hasn't been that bad. I just can't stand watching guys like Johansson, Bjugstad and Parise fumble their way through the game.

How long is it appropriate to wait to trade the rentals and let the AHL guys go crazy full time

Well Wild hockey is back. So I guess there is a positive to take away from the game?

On a night where half your lineup is AHL'ers, sure was nice to see true leaders like Parise and Foligno show up and be absof***inglutely terrible.

Foligno was a top-3 FWD according to the CF%, xGF%, FF%, etc. Parise (and MarJo, who was just awful) were the bottom-3 FWDs in most of those categories.

Outside on Bartkowski I agree on the d-corps.
Well, you won't mix him up with Makar. I did notice that he is pretty stout in board battles, though.
Mermis understands how to play at NHL speed. Seems to have decent feet, and can move the puck a bit.
Addison...I'd like to see if he can play defense, and if he has a shot. Otherwise, his feet, hands, and playmaking are good.
Mayhew was ineffectual. He's gotta do better than that if he wants to be in the NHL.

Bartkowski was the one d-man that really stood out in a not good way. The rest seemed okay for to step in on the 3rd pair if needed.

It's only one game but I liked all 3 of Addison, Belpedio, and Mermis over anything I've seen from Hunt.
