So could corrado were not talking about alberts/shea weber. I am a big corrado fan but he had a few ups and downs in pre season himself, his last game here he played extremely well but the prior couple of games he was not immune to mistakes.
Our entire d core has had screw ups themselves this year that costed us games.
He deserves one game opportunity since the team/gillis has him on the roster as an extra d man, other wise whats the point of him? If hes not playing well.... gills needs to waive him and bring someone else up, theirs no point keeping an extra d taking up a roster spot if nobody wants to even use him when we have an injury on defense.
Ill let you see the difference for yourself Because if alberts is getting that many games, theyre either going to sit him on the bench or eventually call somebody else up because they feel hes hurting them. Though even if he does lousy, its just going to be weber next.
we should acquire a bunch of scrubs everytime we have an nhl ready prospect and place them RIGHT ahead of them in the depth chart! woot woot winning formula!
What? I think you should re-read my last post.
You also said if alberts is getting that many games, i said if alberts is struggling tomorrow hurting the team he should be waived.
I am arguing that alberts deserves tomorrows game to get a chance to prove himself if he can play well. What terrible asset management if we keep alberts and never use him even when we have an injury on D.
why would they waive him? what happens when there is more than one injury? just because hes an 8th d man, doesn't mean he should be waived. he should be the 8th d man, not 7th IMO thats all i want. i dont like having weber & alberts ahead of corrado when hes nhl ready and a flat out better defender. with edler being out a while, and another d likely to go down eventually, there could be alot of games to be had throughout the rest of the season
What purpose does he serve if we carry an extra D and when we have an injury we place call ups ahead of him on the depth chart without even giving him a one game shot?
All im saying is he deserves a chance tomorrow to prove himself and play a game tomorrow, nothing more, he is ahead of corrado on the depth chart right now and deserves a shot tomorrow..
Also waiving him does not mean he wont clear and we loose him.
well whatever. im confident in dropping this for now because i know it wont take long before people are reminded what alberts brings to the table
