I want a coach who uses the strength of the players they have and not try to change them to fit a style that will end up failing.

Not saying you can’t hold players accountable.

Interesting ruling from the BC Supreme Court about giving an indigenous group land rights to land in Richmond.

BC government already is appealing this ruling as it opens so many concerns about private land ownership.

Was there not a settlement between HC and the plaintiff? Or were those the previous ones?

Hmm, rumor earlier had Martone going to Michigan, not MSU. Interesting team. Kaapo Kakko has signed his contract with Seattle. https://puckpedia.com/signing/10061 $4.5M for him for 3 years plus a $2M signing bonus, seems like the going rate for a 2nd line player. He is doing better in Seattle than ...

Joshua’s wasn’t much of an agitator. He threw the odd body once in awhile when he felt up to it and rarely dropped his mitts. Garland is an agitator, practically every time he steps on the ice, Hoglander agitated more than Joshua. Agree with this, I know last year he was coming back from a major inj ...

Damn, now I feel old seeing some of those names and the dates.

Cootes will do this year in the W and maybe get in a few AHL/NHL games depending on his season goes. Next season I can see him 100% in the AHL with more time in NHL. I think this is reasonable with my rose coloured glasses on. at worse he spends 1 more year in the W and then comes up but I see the ...

Really hope Chytil rebounds this year, Raty is not close to a #2 C.

Small Euro scorer who thrived on big ice with lots of room but isn't seeing it translate over to the North American rink at the pro level for all of the reasons that UW listed while I was typing . It's not a stretch to say he won't pan out as a top-6 NHL forward. Happens all the time. In fact it is ...

At some point we have to see what we have in Raty. This is the year to let him prove himself. A centre may come free into the season. Maybe not. But lets not rush it. HW, if you listen to the media 2/3 of league are looking for a #2 C. A trade will be damn expensive and any UFA will damn expensive ...

I can’t keep up with nicknames, who is sushi again. I know who scooter is.

So the only change is Kane and no drama?

And hoping like hell the EP returns to form.

The more I read about the more excited about the pick. Not just his hockey skills but he seems to be a natural leader.

Canucks better not trade him.

Good post Mëds, exactly.

There is little to show in his history that he can go a full season without a significant injury. Just say no and trade for some good assets to a GM that is desperate for a injury free Demko.

I am still shocked they actually picked and a Canadian and a Centre.
