Floyd Posted January 29, 2018 Report Posted January 29, 2018 Ripple effect could be ugly... Morrissey back with Buff makes Morrissey worse. Myers-Enstrom back to PK duty Chiarot-Poolman at 10-12 mins a game... yikes.

blue_gold_84 Posted January 29, 2018 Report Posted January 29, 2018 Time for Byfuglien to step it up and earn his keep. He said he wanted more minutes, right? Well, here they come. SPuDS 1
The Unknown Poster Posted January 29, 2018 Report Posted January 29, 2018 I have to think Chevy wont stand pat. Even if its just a 6/7 veteran. Too many injuries on D to be comfortable right now. SPuDS and Brandon Blue&Gold 1 1

Too many injuries on D to be comfortable right now. Agreed. We're too good this year to rely on just the folks we have and hope it works out. Morrissey - Buff Enstrom - Myers Kulivov - Poolman If Kulikov's good to go this week, we're in decent shape short term. What worries me, and I'm sure the Jets, 6-8 week injury gets pretty close to playoff time. And this ain't Scheifele healing a shoulder, where you know player will stay in shape.

They have one month til the trade deadline so they can take a little time to see what happens. If anything, a fresh Trouba for the playoffs will be a good thing. blue_gold_84 1

JCon Posted January 29, 2018 Report Posted January 29, 2018 AFAIK, pairings today were: Morrissey- Myers Enstrom-Buff Chiarot-Poolman

I'm not sure if you play Chiarot and Kulikov together and rely on the veterans or if you give Poolman a chance next to Kulikov. The gambler in me says K-P. But my head says K-C.

I think its Poolman Kuli once Kuli ready to go. Chia sits. Edited January 29, 2018 by Goalie

He's been one of the bright spots on a pretty lousy team since he was drafted. Different strokes for different folks. He's a great player, don't get me wrong. But I do think it's fair to ask if production has always matched skill level. His best year statistically was his first. Avs also won the division that year. Since then, you're right, pretty lousy Avs team. And in turn, just an "okay" Nathan MacKinnon?? A "pretty good" Nathan MacKinnon. A mediocore Nathan MacKinnon? At 20 G & 50 pts per season, given his talent, I don't think mediocre is that egregious. It's just naturally high expectations for a 1st overall. How would he describe his last few season's, leaving aside the team's play? I've watched the Avs downfall pretty closely, being a diehard fan before the Jets returned and all... SPuDS 1

He averages .77 PPG career, the exact same as one Mark Scheifele who's also played on some pretty lousy Jets teams. I wouldn't qualify Scheifele as mediocre. Would you?
