Played last game and based on the very thread you're posting this in he's playing the next.

I don't know how much he is going to learn eating popcorn in the press box.

When Rhett doesn’t have anything to complain about he tends to make things up so he can still complain

Miromanov looks like he's coming in for Pachal, not Parekh, based on practice lines.

They played him last game.

The coach had him out in the final ninety seconds trying to get within one.

This morning he’s on the third pair at practice.

What are you even complaining about?

The shiny new toy fanboy thing is so cliche and repeatable every time. It’s the exact same thing every time. Belly aching about new stud ice time. Be more original. Be better.

It's been almost two days since Parekh last saw game action; criticism is warranted.

I hope we can figure out how to score some goals.

Or if any line could show significant chemistry that would also be great

It seems like year to year this is a struggle. Would be great to solidify 1-2 lines that don't need to be touched because they're reliable and proven together. Backlund and Coleman are fine but a shell of what they once were.

The shiny toy aspect aside, Gridin is maybe our most skilled forward and only make things happen out there, even if its by himself. I dont think he needs to be sheltered in TOI as much as he has been.

Let the tiger loose.

Isles and Sabres are well on their way to competing intensely for the Mckenna lottery.

I just don't understand how teams can lose that much. Especially with all that talent on their rosters.

The Islanders have less talent then we do. The Sabres have a dinosaur coach that has not been good in over like 25 years.

They might not be in their absolute primes but they still look pretty effective to me. The fancy stats bear this out- xGF%, CF% etc. are well in the black against top competition, as always. I think we take them for granted.

Are you insinuating after the last 2 games there’s nothing to complain about?

I have a list.

A kick as in you think he’s a character?

Or you chuckle to yourself quietly when you watch him attempt to play defense?
