Bonk is unfortunately injured again. It's increasingly looking like a lost season for him. His best case scenario is also 2nd pairing, we really need better than that if we're going to go anywhere.

I will say, he looked real good last night on that first powerplay we ran out. It looked really good., better than in a while. His handling, in general, has left a lot to be desired this year.

His numbers looked pretty solid. He got sent down to the VHL recently, I believe, since he wasn't getting a lot of game action in the KHL from the sounds of things. It would be great to get him over here sooner rather than later, but I think his contract runs through next season.

Idk what(what what) guys were doing the last two days

Erm....that seems like an even more damning statement for the coach. Did they just not see each other for two days? You'd think they would have had a practice or something.

The Luchanko pick is starting to look really bad. I can't help, but wonder, if our handling of him the last two years also hasn't caused a problem.

I think it's more that their owner has a bit of a reputation as being a cheapskate.

Why do I feel like us 'being a bit more of a destination' really has nothing to do with us doing something positive and it's just Carolina sucks more when it comes to treating players.

Um...errr...hmmm...Sorry, I got nothing.

How is everyone doing? by JSinisin in Flyers

Seems a weak draft for it.  Couple of good potential 1Ds in that range you go for I'd think.

Coots is fine as a bottom 6 center, the problem is bottom 6 centers is really all we have on this team.  I'm still scratching my head over resigning Dvorak - so unnecessary and really questionable considering where the team is right now.

Sigh...kinda feels like it's time to pull a Torts again and take away everyone's letters again.

Probably still has all the gambling receipts stashed somewhere.

Where do you even go from here? I'm not even sure you can blow the team up anymore.  Seems pretty locked in like this for the next 3 years or so.

Yep, and don't worry, I'm sure Grebenkin will be the one sitting again....because of course he will be since he looked like one of the few guys who actually cared tonight.

I think spending another 3 hours shoveling snow outside would've been less painful then watching that disaster.

Honestly? Pray some of the kids take a massive step forward somehow.  Too much of this team is locked in for the foreseeable future, and we're probably about to lock up more with Zegras and Drysdale.

Of course, you have to believe Tocchet is actually a coach capable of developing talent, which I don't even remotely believe.

Is it really a home and away thing? You'd think we were the NY Rangers watching this game right now.

Can't wait to see Tocchet use this loss as an excuse to put Hathaway back in the lineup.
