That's my concern too, the exhibition games. I don't care about practices and intra squad he can play all he wants but to take away 15-20 minutes of ice time from another defenseman because he's someone special's son is DAMN stupid.

Even the exhibition game doesn't bother me ... so one fewer vet dresses on defense in our first exhibition game ... maybe it saves a guy like Barberio from playing and maybe getting hurt ...

Any other lame excuses as you are finding good ones?? ;D ;D

Huhh??

Look I am not saying it is right, or that I agree with it ... just saying I don't care, and don't think it makes one iota of difference in the grand scheme of things ... now if they keep him all season, then it becomes a different story ... ;D

Can someone who went this morning fill me in on the goaltending situation? Did Sniderman come today or did they go with 3?

[chillywack]

They went with 3 goaltenders. I did not even see Sniderman in the arena today.

Okay, so the Babiak cut really makes no sense now...

[Sébastien]

I agree. Anybody close to the organization who can tell us what happened there?

[502]

Unless Flynn thought he was from Ontario California and accidentally thought he needed him out for the 48-hr rule? (jk...?)

[orrwhat]

So are they left with Riopel, Cooling, Dupuis, Bolduc and Sniderman or did they cut someone else? I thought they were going to release 2 tenders today.

Was involved in the team photos today. The two returning players that stood out the most were Eagles and Lincourt.

Eagles is ripped. I would say he is easily the biggest pound for pound.

Can't even rconize Lincourt. Dropped at least 20 lbs. Super ripped.

All the others are bigger but not as much as those two.

I think those two will both have to have really good camps to have a chance to be here this year. I like Lincourt. If he wasn't so lazy, I would rather have him here than Mangan. I can't wait until the main camp starts when we can start seeing some vets and see their progression over the summer.

You don't think Eagles deserves to be here? That's gotta be a joke. He could have a million turnovers in camp and he would still make the team.

Ugh. I used my words wrongly. I just mean that Eagles could get caught in the numbers game & if he doesn't have a good camp, he may be used in a trade perhaps.

Edit: I mean a trade at Xmas. He could be trade bait.

I doubt training camp is what's going to decide if he gets traded at Christmas or not but we all have our beliefs.

Ok, I am tired, so I'm not making much sense I guess. How about this, he's on the bubble.

Eagles should be team captian
