Just glad we claimed a goalie lol. Comrie's AHL numbers are promising at least.

Word around HF (non devils board) is that he's pretty abysmal, but at 25, sure, kick the tires. I feel like I'd rather do that than Howard, you know? I mean, he wouldn't be the first goalie that blossomed at a slightly older age.

Hard to really judge someone off 8 career NHL games. Not promising there, obviously.

Winnipeg
vs CBJ: 39 shots faced, 35 saves
vs FLA: 35 shots faced, 30 saves
vs LAK: 17 shots faced, 16 saves
vs CHI: 42 shots faced, 36 saves
vs MIN: 28 shots faced, 23 saves

Detroit
vs PIT: 4 shots faced, 4 saves
vs WPG: 30 shots faced, 25 saves
vs LAK: 32 shots faced, 28 saves

If anything, you can send him to the AHL if Winnipeg doesn't want him back or he goes unclaimed.

Well, he'd get here faster being in the US lol. It's a possibility IMO. He's probably better than Comrie.

I am a little befuddled we didn't claim Kylington. Would have thought he'd been a great match for Ruff.

I mean, had we not signed Vatanen, I think we may have taken a chance but I don't think Kylington would've stuck on the NHL roster over the 8 guys we have now. Also, didn't Kylington clear completely? Maybe he's not viewed that well in NHL circles at this point?

Yep, only a few guys got claimed. I don't think nhl teams care much for waivers lol

I kinda figured we wouldn't put in a claim on Kylington when we didn't for Juulsen. Yes, I know Juulsen is a RHD and Kylington is a LHD but both are 23 and have pedigree. 

I'm good with the defensive group we have. Especially in a shorter season. You can plug and play Kulikov as your 6th/7th dman and not have to worry. You really can't say the same about Kylington. Plus, I don't think we really wanted two guys on the left side that are younger/unproven. One at a time lol and Smith takes precedence.

Nice to see Talvitie picking it up a little. I'm not nearly as high on him as I was.

I thought our LW situation was kinda shoddy but the Maple Leafs? Woof. Their projected top 4 LW are a 41 year old Joe Thornton, Jimmy Vesey, Ilya Mikheyev and Alex Barabanov.

Stars and scrubs to an extreme degree. I can't believe they are running it back with that core
