Nah, Wideman's a bigger liability in his end, but he's still more valuable because he's such a dangerous offensive player.

I think Wideman is a far bigger liability in his own zone than Russell.

Solution: we get rid of both of them.

Clearly the past few games are proving we have capable talent in the pipeline. And this isn't including arguably our 3 best defensive prospects.

You mean it's that easy? I'll put someone right on it.

If they start the year with Wotherspoon and Nakladal on the bottom pairing I'm perfectly fine with that. They just need an upgrade on Engelland in the middle pairing.

I think the only Russell advantage is that he's better at blocking after he gives away. But difference of opinion aside, they both are better off on other teams.

Francis just said that ferland on the top line to "protect those two smaller guys"

Monahan is small. Heard it here first.

That need to be done. I don't care what the people say against fighting that need to happen as early as possible. You don't get to throw alate hit like that then hig your way out of a fight. He could have picked a better time I guess but the more you put that off the more Martin feels comfortable throwing another hit like that.

Fun Fact: Micheal Ferland and Sean Monahan are the same height.
