Sorry , but however you wish to view Nylander , the return was a was far worse . Bemstrom was soft as babyshit and showed NOTHING of ANYTHING with opp here . I’ll take Alex over a soon to-be Swedish elite leaguer , any day ……
People get on Sullivan's case, I get it at times I get frustrated by some decisions but I still think aside from Quenville or Cooper he is the best coach out there.
PS as my friend said below….who they got for him was equally as bad if not worse…..and sadly, I would still like Lafferty, he would have fit not he fought line well with size and speed
Sully gonna have to go sooner rather than later. Too comfortable and wont change his style.
Two years ago, Rak made every line he played on better. I think he will bounce back.
8 minutes burying a guy not even in the system anymore. The off season really needs to end.
Alright, you've convinced me, but I will ask a follow up: do you believe last season was a season filled with down swings in specific areas (i.e the power play, Rakell's play, inconsistent goalies etc) and that the team should bounce back? Similar to how they did the last few weeks of the season?
I actually think Rakell is the most likely to have a bounce back season and wouldn't surprise me … if he stays healthy … that he returns to something in the neighborhood of 25 goals and 55 points. Now I wouldn't necessarily bet my house on it either LOL … but if he buries a few early on in the season, that will make a world of difference.
I have my issues with Sully, but the handling of Nylander isn't one of them. Dude had one lucky week in his whole career.
do you see Petterson getting dealt this year and what would a trade legitimately look like? a 2nd +prospect?
Dk, do you think Sully and management has DOC penciled in as LW1 but do you someone else surprising like a Chris Kunitz and staying with sid. I could see a Blake Lizzotte possibly being a candidate if things work out right
