That notion was shut down very very fast by just about everyone this degree of narcissism is almost clinical at this point 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caps made it clear they aren’t trading away any key pieces while Ovi is chasing Gretzky. Bring me Timo Meier. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody, really. Is scoring a goal a game a great example of depth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotcha lol You're fun My point for bringing up some tough games coming up was because WE are playing like sh!t right now. 2 weeks ago I wouldn’t have been worried about playing them at all. Get it now? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we saw tonight - the Devils would get easily swept by a team in the playoffs if they chose to plug this type of game. They need size, toughness. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timo Meier is 220 lbs… Anyway, you have to get to the playoffs first. And when Bratt goes MIA we have 0 above average wingers to play with Jack and Nico. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really good job, not a common observation that every hockey pundit out there was parroting during the streak. 2) Why would you bother posting this in a GDT when the team is getting caved in? Because you either truly don't know how pretentious and know-it-all you come across (yikes), or you choose to behave this way because it's how you're actually wired (big yikes). 3) Problem is this is your usual schtick, and I don't genuinely believe you want to have a conversation if you're not able to play the know-it-all contrarian role. End, done with you again for the night. Back to being a "coward" the real problem and @mfitz804 brought this up often how he noticed how literally anything i say. There's a few of you guys who will find a way to spin it and misrepresent what i meant or said. That whole "Schtick" is in your head and literally anything i say you read it through that filter. That's totally on you if you get mad about things i never meant. A proof of that is that the other day I made a JOKE referencing Ghostbusters II that pretty damn obvious, i talked about a river of pink slime running under the city and Nicomo totally missed that very obvious joke because he just got upset reading what i said like i was serious lol There's nothing know-it-all or pretentious to posting a chart of strength of schedule lol I never pretended i was smart for it, it's on par with just about anything anyone else find about the team online and share here. I posted about strength of schedule because Nicomo brought up our upcoming strength of schedule. That's how basic conversations go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they were winning, goals were coming from everywhere. I don’t think this is a bad team, nor do I think they lack depth. I think this team lacks physicality and with Bastian out of the lineup for an extended period is taking a toll on them. That said, even with the lack of scoring we have seen goals from Wood, Haula and Marino. Also, how many goals do you expect from the bottom 6 anyway? Sharan has 8, Wood has 7 and Zetter has 5.

I asked “where have they been”. Two “depth forward” goals in the last 3. Marino isn’t a forward so I don’t see what that has to do with anything.

Smith does have some of that to his game, I’ll give him that. I wish Bahl used his size more. I swear - between Zubrus, Boyle, and Bahl, we always seem to have some of the gentlest giants. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
