That's actually a very good point.

Toffoli thrived with Carter and Pearson under a coaching system that was built on putting in the work on D and transitioning. Green has a similar approach when it comes to own zone responsibility and putting in the effort in the little things.

Did Titchy McLipfur even have a gameplan?
Ol twitchy had it all diagramed right there on the clipboard

The entire plan
I wonder if it included failing miserably and skulking back to medicine hat with his tail between his legs
Climax.

Twitchy is from Climax, Sk.

And NOBODY 'skulks' on their way to Climax!!
He went back to the Hat as coach and GM....and i bet he skulked!

Ah. I thought you were implying home, not back to the Rez to coach. I would skulk there as well. :lol:

What do you guys think of Radko Gudas as a potential rhd partner target for Hughes? He’s everything Tanev is but also he can beat guys up and insulate Hughes.

RADKO GUDAS IS SCARED THAT IF THE NHL SEASON RESUMES, THE WHOLE LEAGUE COULD BE INFECTED IN LESS THAN A WEEK

I don't think he's near as good a defender as Tanev but he is a tough hombre for sure. I want to clear room for Hughes and Pete myself. No add ons.

Nice find, Rats;

It doesn't bother me one bit to hear players speak candidly. Maybe the fact he did will get others talking from the heart whether for or against
resumption of play.

I think it's a good idea so long as Gudas comes for less than Tanev currently makes.....and also going on the presumption that he is replacing a departing Tanev.
Somewhere in NW BC trying (yet again) to trade a(nother) Swede…..

I'd rather roll the dice on the napkin than overpay for Radko Gudas. Napkin will come in for far less and likely be every bit as physically punishing. He would add that mobility and breakout pass that RG could never dream of being capable of. He can play both sides even. To me that's your Tanev replacement

I’m more of the opinion that Tanev, this year especially, was entirely carried by Quinn. I remember luke Schenn looking like a top 4 guy when paired with Quinn, a guy like Radko shouldn’t break the bank and helps the toughness and the pk. I also don’t think quinn and petey are gonna be like marner and Matthews.

I agree completely, I just worry green won’t play him on his off side.
