Not Great, Bob!
Our main writer called him Mikhail Gregarako initially. And from that small bit of Chambers' incompetence, Greg G. Gregarako ('Greg' for short) was born.
Ahem, I believe it's spelled Grekorako...

The big thing for me is that Greg is playing a lot more often than he's sitting and he's become a regular on the PK, even if it is indeed very annoying that he gets stuck playing with odds n ends 5on5.
That was a really, really unloved GDT. Holy **** our defense was so bad.
That's impressive! He made a lot of strides in his defensive game in Buffalo/Rochester. If he manages to bulk up and increase his speed a bit, he could be a passable defensive 3C. Kid was also a faceoff wizard with us, has that carried over?

this game couldn't come sooner. why does it have to be an 8 o clocker?
The worst part about this homecoming is that EJ won't be in there to chirp factor all night. I just get the feeling that EJ, even more-so than dutchy was thoroughly unimpressed with O'Reilly's negotiation tactics and his hold out in the KHL and his holdout towards arbitration. that tweet about factors contract with scrooge mcDuck was priceless
So Money comes back tonight...
It's too bad he couldn't be a team player, and slot in with guys like Duchene. The fact is he isn't better than any of Duchene, MacK, Ej, Barrie, Varly. And it's arguable if he is any better than a healthy Landeskog. And if he wasn't willing to slot in with his comps on the team then we did what we had to.
As for the game tonight, I'd gladly watch Martinsen cleanly obliterate ROR, and I'd also throughly enjoy watching a Duchene vs ROR fight. You know none of this will happen but I can hope.
Ideally the best possible situation we can hope for is a 0pts effort from ROR and then a Zadorov GWG, this scenario would make me a happy camper.
Most will never view it that way though.
I think you can make a real argument that the deal in real terms was:
Col:
Soderberg
Comeau
Zadorov
Grigorenko
Compher
2015 2nd Round Pick (Meloche)
2016 2nd Round Pick
Buffalo:
ROR
McGinn
San Jose:
2nd round pick (J Roy)
Boston:
2016 6th round pick
Zadorov had a lot of nice things to say about Beauchemin, saying he's talking to him a lot and he's always there to back him up, making it easier for him. Really couldn't think of a better partner to help him learn than Beauch.

greer, not meloche was taken with that pick.
It's the stupid Wednesday night rule where the national game has a window where no other game can start. The Avs still have 2 more of these stupid late night Wednesday home starts.
Try being an Avs fan in Michigan, I have to wait until 10pm.
I do miss Ginner. I still have his jersey, and he was always a favorite of mine. Always thought he was really popular in the room. Interested in how Buffalo handles his contract situation.
I wonder if the Avs would consider bringing him back if he hits free agency this summer?
He's a solid 3rd liner and was obviously well liked by Roy. If we could bring him back for 3M I would absolutely be thrilled with that.
With all the feud talk... I want a ROR/Duchene fight!
We'll be happy to stop writing about it. You know, to help you guys who can't listen but I'll be happy to stop bothering. Maybe someone besides TMV can write about it for a change too.
Has ROR ever been in a fight? I know dutch dont mess around when it comes to small Czech guys but if the two throw down im betting on Money Matt with the unanimous decision.
The most gentlemanly player will not be dropping the gloves with anyone.
