Quote from: JockitchwithRich on October 30, 2026, 11:35:33 AMThe stubbornness in playing Bjorck is just so puzzling
The kid has talent but is overmatched so often in the dot, work along the boards and pushing the play, which is vital

Oh yeah, the game last night.
We struggled and lost —- now the Panthers are up today

Totally agree, we might be better off with Yager, between 81/19.

Yager should be up.

I don't think it's an either/or with Bjork though. The possession numbers and defence have been good, but the entire team hasn't been able to score. He was already playing in a men's league last season, I think if you want him to learn and grow, he's exactly where he needs to be.
My wife is amazing!

Big difference in the men's league in Sweden where he played 42 games last season and had 15 point, and the NHL. His defensive play is okay, but he is a -7 which the worst on the team. He's 18, hasn't even graduated high school yet. He needs time to grow and improve. NHL is not were you do that. He needs to spend a little time with the Moose.

Moose Scoring leaders: Gregor 13, Yager, 11, Zhilkin 10 points. All three have the speed to play with 81/19.

Head scratcher - Lambert doesn't dress because our coaches decide that Bauer should dress as a 7th dman
Bauer plays 25 seconds in the first and drops his gloves to fight some sluggo from AHL days or whatever. Never gets another shift in the first. By end of the 2nd he's played 1:24 and by the end of game under 3 minutes. Why the H is this guy playing ?

The rest of game is full of *#*~£§*. The big guns are on the ice too much, trying to save Arniel's job and being minus performers

Boy's are on a one way trip to the first pick overall in this years draft. Nothing about there game is working right now.

Again we dressed 7 Dmen and our fwds were in a blender a lot

Regardless, we looked non combative and certainly no one stood out in my mind.   Lost as a team

They will somehow manage to screw that up too

I was glad to see 81/55/13 back together. 91/17/19, love 17, but he's no 2nd. line C. Sounds like JM44 is close.

I think Arniel's lost the room. This is almost worse than last season.
Life is strange.

it's 10:38am and Arniel still has a job...

I think they will wait till we get home from this road trip.

So, if not Arneil, who?

Who is available out there that is better?  Promote Mark Morrison?  Moose seem to be doing well...
Unabashed positron.  Blue koolaid in my fridge.  I wear my blue sunglasses at night.  Homer, d'oh.
