Slavin on pair with De haan lmao. Haven’t scored but one goal against the Flyers in 3 games. But our team is fine the way it is. Didn’t need to trade future picks or prospects for a scorer. 

Gotta find someone who can mask Calvin's obliviousness!

Don has to go. I appreciate his vision but his unwillingness and/or inability to convince Dundon that we need a legitimate scorer to progress is a fireable offense. We don’t have that. Aho, Svech, Necas, as much as we love them are all fringe stars and disappear way too much and at the same time.

I know we went after Meier but it looks like we pushed all of our chips into that acquisition and didn’t have a backup plan. I like Jarvis but I’d rather have Meier than him.

I absolutely love Kucci and still believe that he is our long term answer in net.

But, he's got some poo he needs to work out. He has all the talent/athleticism to dominate, just needs to get the mental side of the game down and eliminate the WTF moments.

I've never seen an NHL goalie spend so much time on their back...

Don's seat should definitely be getting hot!

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
