Kampfer's a -22 in 41 games. I know some don't like that stat but it's pretty hideous. Graves is only a -9. I'd much rather go with him.

 

[Trxjw]

Kampfer is a righty though.

This.

See, we agree sometimes

 

[Hire Sather]

If we kept McIlscratch he could've maybe played tonight!

 

[eco's bones]

We need to trade for a defenseman anyway.

According to Zipay Klein's improving. He'll skate again tomorrow. Looks like Kampfer might be playing tonight.

may be his only game cause i'm pretty positive they are getting a Dman now with Girardi and Klein banged up

this guys hot garbage. this is what we've come to! he'll probably stay in a suit tho doubt he plays

Kampfer, LOL. This is awesome.

I don't know if I should smile or cry about Girardi. I'm smiling that he's out for 2 weeks , but I'm also crying because he shouldn't have been playing. AV playing G when he shouldn't have been playing him because of an open wound is typical.

What are we gonna do if he is in a suit....go with 5 D and 13 F ??

I guess we could....

If that's who they think is their best option from Hartford--that's not much of an insurance policy.

It might have gotten infected. Your ankle is a bad place to have an open wound--there is some friction between your ankle, sock and skate when you move. It might not heal until he's off the ice for a while.

Exactly my point. He shouldn't have been brought back early and played with that type of wound in that area. But AV rushed him back and played the bum anyway. It's typical and frustrating.

If that's the case you can't blame the player for it. I had that issue myself a couple times. It just gets worse and worse and Girardi's skating which has never been great was going to get worse with that.

Kampfer is absolute trash.

I'm not blaming the player. I clearly blamed AV...who makes the decisions. Maybe he got bad advice from the team doctors or something, I dunno. In any case, I'm certainly not blaming G.

 

[FLYLine27*]

Graves couldnt get a game in?

Could be that he's in so much regular pain that he can't seem to ever get regular plays correct. That pass he made the other night against Toronto--no pressure, nobody around, just gives the puck away--i mean if this is what we've come to expect from Dan than we might as well just dress 5 D every night

The problems I had with an open cut on my ankle is it just kept getting bigger and bigger the more I skated with it and when you have something like that and you're skating on it there's also the danger that it gets infected. Drury I think (maybe it was Callahan) had this issue with the Rangers several years ago and if I remember right it got infected.

Sent back down

This is presumably because of Smith now being with the team.
