Send dotchin to Gary Roberts. Dude seemed to work wonders on Ritchie

I doubt it. We're still ass defensively and Gibson has continued to be the reason we're not plunging downward in the standings. Schenn over Bieksa is a definite upgrade though. He's slow, but he knows his limits. Kinda like Stoner but a little more mobile. I don't mind him at all as a #6-7.

Gibson was also great last year, which is why when I look at what we have been able to do this year relative to last year one thing that pops out to me is how much better we were last year when Bieksa was out of the lineup vs when he was in it and also how much Schenn beefs up our back end with solid play. I also love the youth and energy the forwards bring, especially with us running 4 lines. Credit their to Carlyle. But still, our forwards as a whole havent been good. They really struggle to maintain possession which forces us to rely on our d to not give up grade a chances, and Gibson of course.

In the main board thread there was one Tampa fan who said he had reason to believe there was an issue such as depression involved, but of course that post got buried under dozens of corny fat jokes.

I mean if you're eating that much, all the time, you're self medicating.

Thanks for the 8 games Schenn

Soft defense incapable of protecting its franchise goalie. Trade a tough dman who played great and send down the other (Dotchin) What a year

The 9 game mark would require the famous 3x3.5M extension

I thought Schenn did well on the Ducks, he must not have enough puck skills. Another good Gull leaving... Murray really wants to f*** up both the Ducks and Gulls...
