Goalie Posted January 13 Report Posted January 13 5 minutes ago, BomberBall said: Yes, there’s definitely contact in practice, but guys are generally not trying to put each other through the boards. Really hope Ehlers can play tonight, for obvious reasons, but also because I hate the 11 - 7 lineup. Yeah don’t think they going all out against each other but in the past there have been fights amongst team mates at practice. Chiarot vs Wheeler was a thing. BomberBall and TrueBlue4ever 2
TrueBlue4ever Posted January 13 Report Posted January 13 4 hours ago, Goalie said: Out 1st right now is basically pick 30 to 32. It’s not like he’s trading a top 10 pick. And we have Montreal’s 2nd round pick this year (courtesy LA and the Dubois trade) so that right now is 7 picks later. Goalie 1

Dillon was going around hitting guys in the scrimmages and then Wheeler took him aside and told him to stop doing that. You could see the bewildered look on Dillon's face, like "what kind of country club of a team is this?" I knew when I saw that happen that Wheeler had to go. You have to hit guys in training camp, you're all fighting for a job. Can't play it at 3/4 speed. Goalie 1

You have to hit guys in training camp, you're all fighting for a job. Can't play it at 3/4 speed. My only issue with those who have an issue with Wheeler was that it wasn’t like he ever dogged it out on the ice. He ruptured a test-icle (really censors, that word gets blocked, but motherfucker slides right through??????) blocking a shot, and was always pushing hard in games, even when the skills eroded. If anything, I could see teammates chafing under his surly demeanour for being a hard ass and maybe pushing them too hard (now I am not in the dressing room so this is pure speculation, but I say boo-hoo to any pro athlete who didn’t like how tough their captain was being on them for demanding effort if that is the case), but hard to imagine a country club atmosphere during his time if he is leading by example. I guess one day the full story will come out. Edited January 14 by TrueBlue4ever

And the reason was because he was hitting guys very hard and almost injuring him. Lowry basically said to him "We need these guys for the season" . I'm fine with ramping up intensity in camp, but these guys need to respect each other to not injure them before the season starts.

Dillon wasn't a rookie, he'd been through several camps. It's one thing if the coaches tell guys don't hit but other players? In training camp? I don't like that.

BomberBall Posted January 16 Report Posted January 16 Good to see that Connor will be back. And great to hear that Judy Bowness is doing well. bb1 and JCon 2

iHeart Posted January 26 Report Posted January 26 45 minutes ago, JCon said: Some good news. Was worried about Morrissey. yes BUT (from FotWJ): Scheifele is not taking part on the power play drills and will not be talking to media post-practice. Both signs he likely won't play tomorrow JCon 1

bustamente Posted January 26 Report Posted January 26 For Scheifele going on the trip seemed more like continue to skate with the team keep getting treatment from the trainers and seeing ma and pa fefe. Another 10 days off should do a world of good
captaincanuck12 Posted January 29 Report Posted January 29 https://www.tsn.ca/1.2069180 And Declan Chisolm has been claimed by the Wild. What a stupid move to send him to the minors.

BomberBall Posted January 29 Report Posted January 29 I liked Chisholm, but he wasn’t getting any ice time and if we want to see Heinola get a chance, the move needed to be made.
Goalie Posted January 29 Report Posted January 29 (edited) He had no value. Stanley likely has some. I’d be shocked if Stanley is still a jet after the deadline. Chisholm? Who cares. Another tweener. Edited January 29 by Goalie
