If they had one or two more defenceman, this team would challenge for 1st in the division.

Tough luck...lol

Appleton will be with Lowry...It may end up like that for the 1st 2 lines but...Switch the LWer's and C's on the 3rd and 4th line. Poolman, if back, will be with Morrissey

By no means are these lines I expect lol, I don't mind if Poolman and DeMelo swap though!

Demelo hasnt played with Morrissey over the last 2 games anyways.

They are challenging for it without another Dman...

I actually really like the way POMO has set up the lines. The Jmo-Demelo pairing wasn't really working at at all when together.

They have played the top two teams once and lost convincingly, against TO that game could have been 8-1 had it not been for your goalie.

You do realize that we were down 2 of these defencemen plus Dubois? TML were fully healthy then...

And were lightyears better and have improved a tonne since then. We'll see how Winnipeg fairs against TO and Montreal, the Jets don't scare me at all, TO is faster and more skilled and much deeper on the Blueline. They are similar teams but TO is stronger where the Jets are strong and much stronger where they are weak. Heleybuck is a difference maker sure and will steal a game or two no doubt but I just don't see this roster matching TO. Montreal on the other hand will be interesting if your D plays well you could cause them problems, but their speed will be hard to contain.

What's good Rooney?
I've been following your posts on here and I think you'd be a great addition to the GM Game here on CapFriendly. The game is basically a season long Arm-Chair team where you get to make trades, draft, etc. and we have a formal scoring system for playoffs. If you are interested and want to know more, just quote and reply to this post and I'll answer any questions you've got. We've got some openings for assistant GMs that would involve you helping GMs by offering input on all aspects of the game.

Hey man, thank you for the offer! I appreciate it, but at this time I am going to have to pass. I'll be sure to reach out should that interest change in the future

Yeah no worries. It's a standing offer so if you ever want to hop on you'll be welcomed. Here's the link to one of the threads that we direct new people to:https://www.capfriendly.com/forums/thread/406387/3

That sounds great thanks a lot man!

Sounds as though Poolman is still out for a bit. COVID effed with him pretty good

Yeah I actually just read that interview as well, no timeline given either.
