With depth D who are playing low minutes and going to be replacement level, I would rather have the tough ones like Gilbert and Pachal.

If you're going to lose go down with a fight. I like it.

You dont 'just get' 2 points. You're going to have to earn them.

I wonder if they waive Bjornfot when he comes off IR, so we can claim him to "replace" Hanifin.

Do we know if he has a good shot? We might be able to match the Bouch Bomb with Pachalbel's Canon?

I'll see myself out.

LOL, the OP said big and strong. Saw the measurements at the end. 6'2" is about average or slightly on small end for a "big" d-man. As a comparison, Hawks D's are no less than 6'4" - all 8 of them! I'm happy with the right shot,though and a FREE pickup.

If there's any announcer who can bring up such cultured reference, and not some primitive slang they use up north that could also double as a shot at Club Malibu, it's our very own Rick Ball.

I'd go after Mario Ferarro (25) or Kaiden Guhle (22) to replace Tanev, Ferraro has been rumoured to have been on the block for a while now and is a shot blocking fiend. Nick Seeler would be another option, but he is 30 and doesn't have a great game overall.

I don’t know anything about him, but Vegas fans are pissed that we claimed him. I’ll take it!

I don't think the Habs would part with Guhle unless it's for something substantial, but I would love that- he's really underrated. Guhle is big, skates like the wind, plays an all-around game, and still hasn't fulfilled his potential yet.
