Hey Mennoknight, what moves do you feel like Calgary should make?

I feel like they need a 3C, a backup G and a finisher forward

A move to Houston or Seattle would probably be best.

Calgary is playing Bennet at wing because they already have Monahan, Backlund, Jankowsky, whatshisnuts, and Stajan down centre.

Bennet is snakebit as gently caress right now, he could be turned into something worthwhile if they can find a team looking for a center who can't play center.

Calgery is about to hit the Blues situation where there are no players who make the team better and are also available for a price that won't be a net negative. It is why they too will not win another cup in our lifetimes.

Landeskog hit Tkachuk in the neck and has been suspended for a crosscheck before, so 4 games isn't really surprising.

Bennett is young but his numbers are going in the wrong direction. 36 points as a rookie is pretty decent but regressing the next season and now with only 3 points in 23 games this season doesn't inspire much confidence (or value)

I think they need to just chill out and learn how to play some fuckin defence. I would be cool with Brodie leaving town unless he turns it around tout suite

They're apparently trying to trade Ian Cole too for some reason, although presumably for offense and not a goalie.

Does anyone have a video of the set play the pens ran at the start of OT? Didn’t get a goal but it was pretty slick

In other N: this was like the 3rd game I’ve watched this season, and boy do I love hockey. Phil and Sid look gooooood. And it was my five day old daughters first! She slept through all of it

Better than Polak. He's basically an adequate defenseman possession-wise who is also good at blocking shots and hitting and has decent offensive ability for what type of player he is too. He can skate also. He's a good 5th or 6th defenseman ideally, but he can moonlight as a #4.

The Pens are probably not going to be able to afford him and he's an impending UFA. They've also had trouble offensively this year at 5v5 and have too many left side D as it is with Maatta, Dumo, and Hunwick all liking that side. My guess would be they move him for a forward of some kind but I don't know what the market will be like on Cole. I imagine there would be a fair amount of demand as he is better than your average scrub rental dman.

The real fun of living wisely is that you get to be smug about it.

The Wild might need to take more than 19 shots per game in the future. Poor Stalock :smith:

Mackey said there are expectations that Coles salary right now (2.2mil) will more than double on his next contract. Fuckin' lol. I guess not unexpected though. Two time Cup winning dman with grit? That's a UFA feeding frenzy waiting to happen.
