Heck

I’d be resonably happy with these lines as is. Obv if we get Stemp then it gets better

you are not

seriously considering yandle and jovo as a defense pair??

by goldenbear65 on Jul 1, 2010 2:57 PM MST reply actions  

I would, in a heartbeat.

I like my goals like I like my booze..... Top shelf.

putting yandle

and jovo in a dpair is like giving two eight year olds on a sugar high a can of gas and a box of matches and telling them to go out and play….

by goldenbear65 on Jul 1, 2010 3:44 PM MST up reply actions  

I can’t tell if that’s a good or bad thing.

by Troggie on Jul 2, 2010 10:00 AM MST up reply actions  

Yeah, that sounds kind of interesting, IMO.

For defensive depth

Any chance Maxim makes it all the way to the pros this year? Or Jonas, since we’ve heard about him the last two preseasons?

jlov

has a regrettable tendency to get into fights and break his hand….

by goldenbear65 on Jul 1, 2010 3:46 PM MST up reply actions  

Yeah

I know that’s what held him back last year, but it seemed like he was on the cusp of making on the roster prior to that.

Was that not the first time he’s had that happen?

I think

Yandle and Morris would be the better def pairing. They used to live together and are close, can read each other pretty well. Jovo and Aucoin would be pretty nice. We need to get Lombo and Stemp and I think we will be on the right track for next season. Doubtful it will happen but one can hope.

There are two coyotes inside every fan, a good one and a bad one, so which coyote do you feed?

and

they played well together last year after demo came over at the deadline…

by goldenbear65 on Jul 1, 2010 3:45 PM MST up reply actions  

I like Glen's pairings better though. lefty-righty combos are perfect.

side note – Joel Perrault got picked up by Vancouver.

That sux

Even though the last 2 years Perrault wasn’t on the Coyotes much, he still produced for the times he was. I think we are gonna miss this guy.

Of course we'll miss him

If he gets on the Sedin line. Cause then he’ll turn into a 50-60 point guy

by Beastonnette on Jul 1, 2010 3:46 PM MST up reply actions  

yeah.....

maybe…..remember, this is the guy TnsGO called “the best player on the ice” in an interview after a game….

by goldenbear65 on Jul 1, 2010 3:47 PM MST up reply actions  

Canes fan here to congratulate you guys on the Whitney deal. You’re gonna love him, and I can guarantee he wont stay on your 3rd line. Allow me to introduce him to those that dont know him…..

Actually I looked at your roster again, go ahead and put him on the first line, hes your best player after Doan.

by TylerA7707 on Jul 1, 2010 5:42 PM MST up reply actions  

Putting him on that line wasn't so much a reflection on him

as it was me not messing around with things and just plugging people in.

UFA;s and UFO's

All of the above is true. It ignores the observation that the Coyotes can’t score on the power play! We should have asked for the option to refuse the penalties and continue five on five. Somewhere, and it isn’t in the current makeup, we need to find a guy with a killer shot who can make the power play work. Absent that, the current discussion is meaningless. We proved you can make it to the playoffs with a terrible power play. You can’t advance without a good one..

by lefthandman on Jul 1, 2010 9:26 PM MST reply actions  

But the Coyotes

Found their powerplay in the playoffs. We couldn’t make it passed the first round because a major part of the team was injured. Doan. He pulls the team together when they need it and get through things that would have seemed impossible.
