This team is just better with the vets. Less responsibilities on the young guys.

The energy that Beagle, Ferland and Roussel is bringing is rubbing off on the whole team.

I haven't seen this kind of relentless forechecking and transition since early in the season.

Sabers look horridly disorganized. Wonder if they're gonna get abused, yelled at, pummelled a talking to.

Ferland and Roussel are massive upgrades over the outgoers.

Stecher is being rather bold. Let's not do that. Stay home.

I prefer to mention how many stick and board battles he loses that leads to turnovers and extended defending. I also don't mind mentioning how marginal he really is but is getting so many looks with good offensive players to pad the stats. The same as when Goldy gets way overrated playing with EP but in reality isn't an NHLer.

Teams that expect to contend don't rely on placeholders like Leivo.

Alrrrright, Dangles.... I'll give ol' Joshy some props ;)

I’m picking Hughes over Dahlin, big time, in a redraft. The kid is dynamic with the puck.

I actually don't think Oscar the Slouch is really an every day 3rd pairing guy. But given the hot garbage we've seen over the last 4 years, I like how steady he is.

Its a toss up which tells me either or...theyre both around the same value. Hitting that at 7 is a stroke of...shall i say...genius? :wow:

Roussel could go down as Bennings greatest UFA signing
