I hear ya.... Man sad game we could have easily won 6 or 7-1... Yeo likely fired.... Shame cuz he loves coaching but that team underachievers big time.

Saad entering all star level play IMO...

Ter-a- vine-in??? Got a lot of play.... U could see puck skill but also a lot of lower strength weakness as I said in the preview... It's so clear

I'm glad Teuvo has been getting a chance. You've no doubt seen him more than I have, so where do you see him next season? Back in Rockford for more seasoning or is he going to be ready to take over from Richards?

I can very soundly say he needs this and one more season before he is a legit 3rd line center for us.... I just don't see the fit right now.... His strength is way behind and that negats his puck skills with the way the pros bump and lift on the POA. I've seen like 12-15 games of his now... He is great with speed in small spaces but it isn't so much a team approach skill right now where as Kane has that skill but in a passing mode first if that makes sense

Yeah, I think I get what you're saying. His strength, or lack of, seemed to be the biggest flaw reported before he was drafted, so I'm not surprised that he's still a bit behind in that department. I think it's just going to be a matter of time really. He has the talent, but it will take time to build the body to match it. As for the on-ice stuff, the more games he plays at the NHL level, the faster he will adjust to that level and style of play.
