Not even "at least ovi scored" brings me miniscule comfort anymore. I truly have lost all hope.

Hughes is on pace for 230 points this season.

That’s good, right?

So is it fair to say Woodcrafts job may be on the line soon or is it better to say at the 10 game mark.

Also extend this to bringing back Holland to be GM next season lul

Smart GMs have a white board now to "make" space for UFA LD, and
Really smart GMs, have a permanent board now for the "Ultimate" UFA McJ!

RIP OIL!

I really want to see some sort of Peeke garland type deal.

CBJ have so many forwards rn

Maybe they do it but he feels like he would be a roadblock for someone of their young players to take a spot

The team that makes a bit more sense is Anaheim

They also did it because they had too, They were over the cap with Gaudreau signing.

I don't think Garland adds much to a log jam, but I'm expect Roslovic to be gone before seasons end. Essentially they replace each other.

Yea but hes also the reason they get scored on a bunch which is fair as nobody on that EDM blue line has looked good from Nurse to Ekholm right down to Kulak and Ceci. Broberg though has been showing flashes but Woodcraft does not seem to trust him enough to show more.

But what people dont realize defense isnt his speciality been that way since London

Should see the EDM subreddits on him rn they are legendary. But yea not great for anyone

Seems like they’re just looking for a scapegoat. They don’t realize what they have.

When Ros is gone one of Chinakhov or McKown is gonna take his spot

Garland gets in the way of that

He fits better on a team who doesnt have so many young forwards pushing

Teams like NSH, ANA, CHI all make sense
