I think bear suffers from the condition 'spatial orientation phenomenon' His brain is clearly misinterpreting the 6 for a 9

"Now if 6 turned out to be 9
I don't mind, I don't mind
Alright, if all the hippies cut off all their hair
I don't care, I don't care
Dig, 'cos I got my own world to live through
And I ain't gonna copy you"

Nah.
Poetry thread? Poetry thread.
'Tis nothing but a shame, disgrace
Heard thru the winds and waves
A phenomena of lost words
Transmitted through ethernet cords
But what is the meaning of symbols, words?
Why is the digital world so cold?
Ones and zeroes, the labyrinth expands
Who once were heroes, now buried in sands
Of chronica millenia, time and space
'Tis nothing but a shame, disgrace
Puhis
Nah.
As for the trade, one thing that gets overlooked is how Pominville has found chemistry with Granlund. Those two are a brilliant duo, and Parise is exactly the kind of guy they need on their wing. Was the price steep? Yeah, for a rental. But once Pommer was extended and potting 30G/season, it became more reasonable.
I still think Hackett has potential to be a good starter, but right now, Kuemper is clearly ahead. Young goalies are notoriously difficult to predict though. As for Larsson, he is a solid player, but where would we slot him? We have more than solid center group, and even more guys in the pipeline.
As Sharppi said, no use clinging on to every prospect in hopes that they become the next superstar. Sometimes, and usually often, you've got to pay a premium for something you need, and exchange some of the future to current success.

lol. It's "If 6 Was 9" by Jimi Hendrix, ya fools. Cuz, ya know, Pominville was being confused for Vanek and vice-versa. 26 vs 29. Sheesh.
Puhis
Nah.
29 was giving up the puck Pominville I'm not impressed by Vanek 26 yet but I was watching 29 Pominville

Pominville is kind of disappointing. Seems hes only noticeable when he's whiffing on wide open nets, and those always have to be set up by a teammate. he's poor on the PP like all the other vets too.

Really?
Our PP sucks. Our personnel does not.
Pommer is one of those quite players who you might not always notice but is always part of good things that happen: He's second or third on our team in points.
He's fine.
And if used correctly I believe he would be good on our PP. He's a smart and shifty player with good skill and is consistent.

Yeah I don't get the criticism of Pommer. He's a little behind his averages in terms of goals (0.21 vs 0.32) and points (0.63 vs 0.78) per game, but his shots per game are a fair bit higher than average (3.37 vs 2.79). He's doing the right things that lead to goals.

You know who leads the league in missed shots every year for the last decade? Alex Ovechkin. I'd take him on my team.
The more shots you attempt, the more shots you miss, but the more goals you score too.

Where does Antti Miettinen rank on that list. Missed shots are one thing at least OV is hitting the puck not a swing and a miss
