a false posted:yeah as much as i like lias andersson as a prospect i would've liked pettersson to fall to the rangers. he's going to be good Rumor was they really liked him and were hoping he'd fall to #7 Though it's funny, Anderson technically had better stats than Pettersson but I think everyone is just worried his upside isn't as high partly because he's not that flashy. Will be interesting to see how it pans out. He's also probably older than Pettersson

He was a really tough defender for the Rangers, but he also showed some great skating and hands, I hope he finds a league where the game is a bit less grinding and he gets to show off those skills some more.

Chad Sexington posted:Yeah Game 7 of the Pens-Caps series was won almost exclusively by his coaching. (Or lost by Trotz's, depending on how you look at things.) That was the game the Pens realized they could use the middle of the ice instead of just the boards and the Caps were completely flummoxed by it since their possession game was predicated by aggressive pinching down the boards all series.

I think when you get to the playoffs, a coach's ability to adjust and not be too conservative can make a huge difference. Trotz seems to be a good coach who tends towards being conservative when things get tough. Good teams in the NHL now can punish you for being too conservative

They would play stretch pass hockey to the death and if didn't work it was because the Pens didn't "get to their game".

And also sometimes you don't want to change what you're doing just because another team is trying to get you to do so (at least IMO) So, it's a bit of analysis about what is happening and how to deal with it, but repeatedly beating your head against a wall p robably isnt a good idea

Looks like the AHL is officially expanding to 31 teams starting in 18-19. It seems obvious Colorado will be bringing their ECHL affiliate up, leaving San Antonio available for the Blues to partner with.

Sullivan clearly had the Pens adjust their breakout for game 7 and it worked to perfection. Or maybe I'm giving him too much credit and the Pens just found it within themselves to actually not break the puck out horribly for one game that series. Coaches probably get too much credit when they're winning and too much blame when they're losing.

I've been an Eagles fan for a while since they've been in the CHL. Really happy they're able to move up. Went to see them last month when they won the Kelly Cup. Good day.

Juice is going to score between 35-50 points for the Oilers if not injured. I mean further, his knees are always hosed up.

I would definitely take Juicy Jokes for 1/6 of the price of a Marleau Patty. Any of you nerds want to join a online (freeware) EHM league? We need a couple of GMs. PM me if you are.

Also isn't RNG the suck at the faceoff circle despite playing center, so Jokinen can do draws if on the same line. Anyway good übercheap signing, Juice can play any role from 4th line center to 1st like LW and won't complain. Juice is actually a close relative to my girlfriend so I'm more interested than usual about this move

Jokinen is a good signing at that price. Probably Chiarelli's best move in a while.

The Jets have literally zero need for more wingers but I'd still take Jussi at that price. A second line winger for 1m is a loving steal

The Sabres signed Johan Larsson for two years at 1.475 per. He isn't worth that, he maybe could be great but he is kinda lazy then likes to bitch about how he doesn't get more minutes. Maybe some day he will mature into a great player, but I don't have my hopes up.
