Rebooting myself
Ristolainen is way better than Nurse. He missed on that one.
Nearly everyone on this board wanted nurse
Ristolainen is way better than Nurse. He missed on that one.
I would my pants if such a streak would happen to us.Wait, Tampa has gone 21-2-1 in their last 25 games?
What the **** lmao.
Offensively. And even then the difference is almost completely to do with pp opportunities and performance. Going back to 2016-2017 both players have 54 ES points. Risto in 195 games. Nurse in 170 games. But is he way better as an all round defenseman. Even if people are not convinced of Nurse's defensive abilities Risto can be an absolute train wreck defensively. At ES Nurse with all of his flaws probably wins this comparison and possibly by a fair bit. By the way, Nurses ES goal scoring has been very strong. He is tied for 29th in the League over the last three years.Ristolainen is way better than Nurse. He missed on that one.
Our scouts had it as Nichushkin being the guy to take at our spot, with Nurse being very close behind; I don't know what our thoughts were on Ristolainen, but we had him behind Nurse in the pecking order. Given the two options our scouting staff gave to MacT I'm happy with us choosing Nurse there.
Ya We should trade Nurse...
After being completely choked that we missed out on Monahan I wanted Horvat with that pick. He was not very fancy but he was and is a horse. Of course I would have also been happy if the moved down and pick Lazar so its not like I can claim to be much more than a flat out hack. Still I don't really regret the Nurse pick at all even with Risto after him. I think Risto's fast start and big pp numbers really inflate people's perception of the player.
It is something I'll never understand.
Even when he's struggling I wouldn't want to trade him, but people want to give him away in nearly every proposal they dream up.
I believe we are coming into week 5 of injury. After this home stand it’s all star break then I would say he will be back. Is it safe to say that Sekera is done? I will never understand the Manning trade. Trade a guy that was scoring for a guy to sit in pb and make 2.5$ ? Wow . If Chia was an Eskimo, I could sell him iceKlefbom injury
I picked him for 35-40 pts at first of year but I also picked Puju for 25 goals. You win some, you lose someHe's on pace for 40 points. He's having a great year offensively.
And honestly outside of a 4 or 5 game stretch his defense hasn't been that bad.
Exactly. I can see Nurse wearing a letter very soon. This man is a beast.Nurse was definitely drafted for a different element than we would have been expecting from risto though.
Nurse brings things risto doesn't, so I think either or would have been acceptable at 7/8.
The "Grass is always greener..." syndrome.After being completely choked that we missed out on Monahan I wanted Horvat with that pick. He was not very fancy but he was and is a horse.

Darnell played 31:49 with 12 shot attempts and 8 shots on goal.
Our forwards had 11.
We were exhausted. This is the worst case scenario, 4 game road trip, travel all day and come back and play.
The players really helped each other, everybody knew we had nothing but they just helped each other the whole time. They stated vocal on the bench, any good thing happening out there the guys were cheerleading each other, wanting to help, and that is a really good sign.
They got nothing, nothing in their legs. In games like this, first you hope they do not get hurt, because their awareness in not there, then you are hoping to get a point or points out of the game. These games help you moving forward as a team.
I'm. Surprised they let that pu*** of a player play.
When u barely have a job and your franchise player gets run, then you stand around...
Useless
Because nudge should play a perfect game every game ? We must have been waching different games because I saw many other players having far worse game then nudge.McDrai, Nurse and Talbot looked good tonight. Wasn’t real happy with the first 2 periods of this game though. Nuge was particularly frustrating, lots of turnovers and hot potato pucks with him. Saw him on a 2 on 2 with Russell, we all know Russell has no offence but he actually passes it to Russell. Wtf, is that? We pay him 6M and he defers to Russell of all guys..:. Good thing he scored in the shootout cuz that’s all he did tonight

Chia isn't a real GM.
