What?? It hasn't been that long of a summer. This looks a lot like the avs series, at least the complete lack of offence, transition or speed.

We had a big chance to shake it up big time in the off season and we failed miserably again. We have yet again failed to sort out goaltending. We traded a 30 goal scorer for a plug amd Monahan is still our soft as #### number one center

We may be worse than last year
Only kidding.....

We're aa two way offensive, or even just decent defensive but offensive second line centre away from being a dangerous playoff team, imo. Said it along and people take major offense to suggesting Backlund is sufficient.

Don't get me wrong Backlund is great defensively and you need that badly, but when Backlund becomes our third line centre we'll be dangerous.

Brad knows this and tried to address and god damn would his attempt vaulted us if it went through. Still hurts badly.

We need more players trying to go through 3 or 4 Kings. Working out well so far.

Strong check by Mangi on Chucky's goal. Good hustle.

Anything and everything that Save on Foods replaces is awful.
