Torn on this, I mean the guy has 4 assists in 12 games with Abby

Maybe prove yourself!

Other aspect, he can’t be worse than Bains and he got a shot. We are lacking size and Ilya has it.

I would’ve given him at least a chance.

He must think he is at least KHL material, otherwise he is draft eligible by the Russian army. They give everyone a shot.
The Cup is soooooo ours!!!!!!!

With 4 points in 12 games, if you give him a chance then everyone will want a chance.

He's probably depressed from the constant rain.

This.

Saffy didn’t earn shit.

But again, neither has Bains, and he is still here…

For the record, 3-4 years ago, I did say Bains was a NHL bust that could not think the game fast enough to play in the NHL and he was a career minor leaguer.

Nice to be right on this, and nice to see people coming around to my point of view.


… that shit never happens when I am dating someone.. 😂😂😂😂
