Andersson looks nhl ready! So at least that's a bright spot. Why not call up Kylington too?

#### all the california teams.

Hope we don't give up another point to any of them.

Nah. He usually misses or gets blocked high, leading to a break the other way.

Is there anything Rick Ball doesn't know?

I've often wondered, given the long stretches of ineffective PP, why we don't just put stone on the point and have him rain shots down constantly. It wouldn't even need to be permanent, could just be to break the funk.

Drives me nuts when Gio and dougie can't get shots off in time or one time anything.

sure, because it's 5 on 5. PK can't block as many shots or go on as many breaks

No, when he's on the PP. He's been used on the second unit, and that's what happens.

The Pk trends now are to get in lanes now more then ever.

Stone doesn’t have the same skill and puck moving ability on the PP to be able to set up the down low play, to be able to set up the big open point shot. 5 on 3 maybe.

Agreed, man. Tired of the California teams. I hope they get swept or at least bounced in the first round. Bastards.

Haha at this rate I’m scared. Oilers have some tough games though still, they certainly won’t go 8-0.

Some great forechecking leads to extended zone time. SJ on the ropes...

Gulutzan - quick, send out Chris Stewart.

LOL. When Jankowski says his favourite drill in practice is shootout, they show him flubbing one.
