Think RBA would remind Hamilton he's a defenseman, and he might need to get physical.

The Preds are 0-6 and have been outscored 23-9, they score 1 goal and you'd think they won the Cup. Take back the momentum!

Agreed. 
 

I will say Dougie has done a good job though picking up Slavin slack there in the second. But that dude needs some rest. He’s consistently getting out skated. Skjei has sucked tonight. Frankly I want to see Gardiner in over Bean too. Bean has not been good the past two games and especially tonight.

Completely overdramatic... 

Disagree.

RBA literally said they're coming out full speed tonight. If this is that, this ain't it. Had we rolled James Reimer out there with the Taxi Squad, I wouldn't be up in arms. This is the healthiest team we've had since Day 1 and they are looking overwhelmed.

Sure. You're choosing to watch the ice on product and think they're not trying. I watch the slumping power play, inability to clear, and soft play and think thats not the type of hockey you should be playing heading into the Post Season.

Throughout professional sports you see teams give less effort when the games don't mean much, I'm simply observing that doing so is human nature.... The risk/reward of losing key players to more physical play isn't great.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
