The biggest mistakes were the 'panic' signings of Savard and Dvorak.
but Savard and Dvorak were terrible signings. Hoffman too, for that matter.
$3.5 for a solid RH defensive d-man? What is panic and horrible about that?
$4.4 for Dvorak, solid 25yr old centre. "" "" ""
Hoffman is uber-skilled shooter with a defensive black-hole we all knew that, Brett Hull was exact same and is in hall of fame. And for $4.5m and is on 20g pace on horrible team, cant complain.
So, i kinda think not a one of the 3 are horrible signings. But, just my opinion.

Sounds like Gallagher, Byron, Caufield, Armia? all be back on Sat.
Brook, Oulette also healing up and be back with Laval
Niku on waivers
Armia 1g in 34 games, i remember
arguingdisagreeing in Sept, bunch folks saying he was 20g+goal scorer... -

And yet it's reality ...
I know.
Just fed up with bush league BS; but i suppose, vast majority of goons are gone, so is a slight improvement brought about by public criticism, so maybe ONE DAY, officials will be allowed to call a good game and will be some ramifications for fighting; but we all know, likely will take one or more serious life threatening injuries or fatality and huge public backlash to nudge the dial.

Just now, The Chicoutimi Cucumber said:
I will be shocked if he is not gone come next season. It’s grown more and more obvious that the Run of ‘21 had to do with internal veterans taking the team by the throat, like in 1986, rather than any coaching alchemy. .
Based on the play of THIS roster? Come on.
But do agree, likely gone as Hughes we assume will put in 'his' man.

As long as you are willing to drop your gloves afterwards.
Are you f'in kidding?
SO; if a NFLer smokes a QB, he instantly must fight? or same for rugby, any hard tackle deserves a fight.
How immature, idiotic and passe is that mentality? And not allowed within the rules.

Tuch/Guhle/Farrell 0pts

Given the way the game began (i.e., Dvorak-Spurgeon) and the final few minutes, I would not be entirely surprised if DD didn't send Pezzetta out there to do exactly what he did
And minni d man did take a poke at Dalphin, so i have zero issue with the solid bodycheck, i would of done same. Bodychecking is still allowed in the NHL isnt it?

Caufield should be dominating in the AHL first.
Could be, i really dont know, seems safest thing to do though and cant hurt, can it?

As the article says... the change is about player development, especially pieces who are young and need to be part of the future like Romanov, Poehling, Evans, Caufield, Primeau, etc...
didnt read it, just saying dont care for any coaching changes this season. Romanov-Evans-Poehling doing fine, arnt they?
Caufield i think NO ONE has a clue what is best.
-
Again, what difference will a head coach change make? Change for the sake of change seems it.
-
A new head coach will make the difference...and how exactly will he do that?
-
Well Mr. Hughes, what do ya think?
Mid-season point.
Solidly in 32nd, no where to go but up.

You have to make your debut somewhere, sometime. At least at this point the game is not on the line.
I know, now beat up Minni's back up, there one goal by Pitlick

I am very scared for McNivan

Trying to play his way off the team?
Did he tip the 3rd goal?
Poor goalies, but they have all been lit up before in their careers, just hope the beatings dont continue...for same goalie anyways.
-
What the heck was Petry doing on that 4th goal?
-
How much would Price leave on the tables...zillions? Why would he ever do that?
-
After getting 3 wins from a ring, i kinda think he would love to win one, with someone, before retiring. Is the only gap in his HofF resume.

Anyways, love that Poehling looks much more comfortable out there, got some more PP time and 'seems' much quicker, than used to be.
Just 2 of 8 on faceoff, so obviously needs work there, but age and experience should take of that bit.
