Again he demotes Kakko and somehow plays a career schmuck McKegg on a higher line. Can't wait until our AHL coach replaces this tool and Ruff is gone as well.
Kakko looks like he's hitting a bit of a wall with his conditioning and skating, which is understandable for an 18 year old. He needs to work on that in the offseason.
Agree but idiots like Brooks in his article don't realize playing the kid on the crap 4th line won't develop him. McKegg sucks. He is not an NHL player. Kakko only needs to change his game some because he's not strong enough now. When he bulks up to about 220 then he will be able to hold onto the puck like he wants. That being said, this is a rebuild. Old shithead Brooks can't grasp that. What the senile dickwad should be writing about is why JD and Gorton are holding onto Ruff when he has done nothing to make the team better defensively since his sorry ass has been here.
Or lets look at it another way...since the kid is...well just a kid...perhaps its a good idea to manage his workload..he is 18 years old playing against men..a few games of under 10 minutes a night isnt going to kill him.
Nah. Quinn is a fucking moron. He falls in love with assholes like Howden and McKegg who do nothing. He's got some Renney in him. I like Howden as a future role player but he should be in Hartford. Gorton needs to get off his lazy ass and make a deal now before the deadline. Smith and Staal either need to be dealt, retained if needed or sent to the minors. Lundkvist will be a star defenseman in this league. Keane is killing it as a 20 year old for the Pack. Righty d is set. DeAngelo needs to be moved now. I want Tuch and Vegas is unbelievably hard up for PP QB and a righty d man with offense. Tuch is there for the taking. I proposed this on another board. DeAngelo and Buchnevich for Tuch and a 1st. No way Vegas can turn that down. That's a deal we have do. DeAngelo is expendable here with Fox who can run the PP.
If they keep up this win one/lose one rate then Kreider probably will be gone by the Super Bowl. Colorado or StLouis for a 1st and decent prospect feels very likely. Fast and Strome for 3rds. Georgiev is the big WC.
