Re: Steen

I don't thing it's a Steen vs Petro thing in the locker room. I do think he's a bit of a prima-donna and probably felt slighted when Backes recommended Petro and knew Petro would be the next captain. Like Tim said, that should be a little telling as well that Backes though Petro would be the next c...

Re: Soshnikov on waivers

Schwartz probably coming off IR... hopefully to get traded along with Petro for Nylander ;) That's a big overpayment. Getting rid of dead money is the positive side? Schwartz and Petro are dead money now? I know Petro is struggling and Schwartz gets hurt, but I would not consider them dead money. N...

Re: Friedman says

The culture is rot with two constants in leadership roles, 27 and 20, one of which is viewed as a cancer by some fans and viewed as an angel, great teammate, etc. by others. I'm inclined to think the former, but who really knows. We've all heard the stories and rumors. I think your problems this yea...

Re: Friedman says

Pass on Howard. We need a youngster that's capable of stopping beachballs. No more Shakey styled goals. And that writer is smoking, we'd be doing detoilet a favor by taking Howard and his money off their hands . They're in a rebuild, and could then afford to go get a younger goalie. Howard is owed ...

Re: The coming trade 11.20.18

I definitely think there is a trade coming. Who though? Honestly? Because depending on who they move out, that could spell the end of the season completely. If you want a culture altering trade, it would have to be Petro, Steen, Schwartz, or Tarasenko, but I think it would be a mistake to trade 27 ...

This is exactly right. An upgrade on Allen and/or a change to the leadership core, specifically 20 for me, it wouldn't do much to change this team.

Re: Not our captain.

I posted this in another forum, but I thought it relevant here as well. I took a brief hiatus over Thanksgiving, plus dealing with a family issue, but I was happy when I saw Yeo got fired. Berube isn't the answer and I think Armstrong knows that with the interim tag on him. I would have to think Lar...

Re: Not our captain.

Nail on head To be fair, he definitely used to be. I'm not sure what has changed with him though. I don't know if it's apathy, the personal life stuff, getting to comfortable here, who knows. Something has definitely changed though. I think he could dial it back in with a different coach, but that'...

Re: The case to fire Mike Yeo

I'm tired of the hanging on by a thread shit. Enough with it. Like the famous saying goes, "Give me Hughes, or give me Hitch" or something like that. I want Hughes!!!! Just as they'd need to make changes if they wanted a shot a the playoffs, they'd need to make changes to have a shot at H...

Re: Not our captain.

Your take is exactly what my take has been for the last few years. You don't need to be a fighter/physical guy to be a great captain. Lidstrom comes to mind for instance. However, the issues with this team this year seem to go beyond just Xs and Os, so I'm willing to give more credence to the "...

Re: Not our captain.

I'm just curious what makes everyone believe he's such a terrible captain outside of not being overly physical or fighting? I don't have any access to the locker room, so I don't know how he is there. I'm just curious why so many believe he's a terrible captain. Your take is exactly what my take ha...

Re: Sitting Players

I don't care about players getting a game in the pressbox but everybody should be held to the same standards. Petro sure as hell hasn't deserved to play in every game so far. I'm where Tim is. There wasn't a same standard applied to all players until deeper into the season, and even then, there wer...

Re: Quenneville fired

Whether the new coach is Q or not, I don't understand how Yeo is still head coach. Carolina skated circles around this team and made them look ridiculous for 40 minutes. If it wasn't for some posts, that game is definitely closer. Through 13 games, we are watching the Blues be basically where they w...

Re: Let's Play Owner for a day

Well if you want to change the culture trade Tarasenko and Pietrangelo. Fire Yeo. They don't need a culture change. They need a new system with a competent coach who understands what players he has, and has the balls to sit veterans who are majorly struggling. You need to finally get rid of the goa...
