[Carl Yagro]

I better trademark that bitch.

McCovid™ Don't worry, it's too fast for you to catch!

I see the Pool Party is back on in the hinterlands. No more social distancing as ol' Jesse has reluctantly slinked back into town for another 2 years

[SKYO]

What a downhill slide. Still only 28yrs. old.

Current colour-coded depth chart. Forwards look okay, a top six would be nice, but with Podkolzin on his way, they can get by and give their young guys a chance this season. maybe add a cheap forward after the frenzy. Bigger needs are in purple. Defence needs a top four at least Stecher’s quality but hopefully better and Demko needs a partner if not Marky then someone cheap.

Miller Pettersson (Virtanen, MacEwen, or Lind)
Pearson Horvat Boeser
(Roussel, Hoglander, or Bailey) Gaudette (Virtanen, MacEwen, or Lind)
Motte Beagle (Virtanen, MacEwen, or Lind)
Eriksson Sutter

Myers Hughes
OEL, Stecher, or UFA Edler
Rafferty Rathbone
(Benn, Chatfield Woo) Juolevi

Demko
Markstrom or UFA

Hey did anyone else notice Benning filled the team’s biggest needs:

Miller Pettersson (Virtanen, MacEwen, or Lind)
Pearson Horvat Boeser
(Roussel, Hoglander, or Bailey) Gaudette (Virtanen, MacEwen, or Lind)
Motte Beagle (Virtanen, MacEwen, or Lind)
Eriksson Sutter

Myers Hughes
Schmidt Edler
Rafferty Rathbone
(Benn, Chatfield Woo) Juolevi

Demko
Holtby

We’re good to go. Sign the RFAs, maybe a cheap forward, and take the rest of the off-season off.

Fire Green!

[Curmudgeon]

I think Virtanen starts with Pettersson and wouldn't mind Benn getting a fair shot on the right side if they don't add anybody. I thought he looked decent there the few times he was and, I may be wrong on this, but he played extensively and quite well on the right side in Montreal. Green needs to have a more open mind with guys playing their off sides or off wings. Didn't Virtanen play some left wing in junior?

[Strangelove]

Didn't Virtanen play some left wing in junior?

Yup.

A few of us have been saying we'd like to see him tried on the left wing.

But I guess that's not the kind of thing Coach Green goes for.

[Strangelove]

Thomas Drance is saying Hoffman has chosen a certain team he wants to play for, but that team has to clear cap first.

He suggests that team is none other than Hargraves' Vancouver Canucks.

If so, would Jimmy finally bite the bullet and pay the yuge cost to move out a bad contract in today's market?

[Strangelove]

And oh yeah, other sources have indicated Hoffman is interested in a one-year deal.
