I hope when they start getting healthier that Lipstick is waived to Utica instead of Archibald.

I'm a bit surprised there's such a big deal for Schaller playing in his hometown because he played like 3 years there already. I mean, I can totally see Gaudette's case being a rookie at all.

I'd be surprised if any1 even claims Lipstick. I think Greener has a soft spot for both of them, as he had both in different occasions. Archiballz does play that heavier/grittier game that's more suited for the 4th line though. If we were in the playoffs, I'd prob play Archiballz ahead of Lipstick too.

The new NHL is no place for Archie, he’s too slow. Lipstick has the chicken with his head cut off syndrome going on, zipping around flying by the seat of his pants. Greener needs to toss his soft spot to the curb, stop blaming everything on Goldobin cause he has no soft spot for him.

Well, Archiballz can give guys like Tory Kreug an ass whooping though and eat his lunch. Archiballz had 4G and 9PTS in 27GP last season, that a pace of like 10G and 25ish PTS for a full season. That's decent production for a bottom 6 forward making pretty much league minimum. Throw in the fact that Archie has some grit, toughness and can play on the PK, I wouldn't mind keeping him around. U don't even have to play him every game. Keep him around as the 13th forward and use him when u think u need that physical element or if some other guy is struggling (ie: Lipstick, Motte).

I’m starting to wonder if when Blob sees Tyler “Motte’s” name come up in conversation it’s his cue to make his go-to triple caesars?

One thing not discussed much yet is the schedule. Once again the Nucks are on the shirt end of the stick. 19 games compared to 14 for Florida. How many away games as well?

No time to practice, no time to try things.

Need Boeser and Bear back.

Did reef say he wants Boeser bare back?
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Yes, yes he did.

Straight goods: I was going to end my sentence with 'Baer back'

... but halfway through that very thing occurred to me and I went with "Brock back".

(even though the possibility of a Brokeback quip occurred to me and I almost changed it to 'Boes back').

Butt Reef the plagiarist just makes one Freudian slip after another, thanks Reef! :D
