Kendrick 4,741 Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 19 minutes ago, Mr. Power said: He should switch to wing and play with a defensively responsible center so that he can actually utilize his assets in a legit way. I agree with you in that he's simply too bad of a D in his own end to justify the position. Yeah he is the perfect example of someone who fits the "4th forward" mould but never plays defense. One of the reasons Edmonton has had trouble keeping the puck out of their net in the past 3-4 years is because he wants to join the rush with the other offensively talented players up front. If he was put on Jordan Staal's wing (yes I know J. Staal isn't in Pitt anymore) he would probably thrive.

If he can pick up his offensive game some more I think it's a great move for NY.

Devise 4,475 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 I honestly don't mind the deal. We had to get rid of Laichs contract to make the move, and Toronto wasn't going to take that for free. Winnik is a good fourth liner imo.

Devise 4,475 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Man did arbitration ever get the Wideman call wrong. 20 games was fine punishment for what happened, Wideman needs to own up to it. I don't care how disoriented he was, your skating to the bench and nobody else was around, just go to the bench. If the Refs and Linesmen strike over this in a few years it's going to be a travesty, all because one player couldn't take the damn blame he was owed.

Well I know for a fact NHL referees have a second job but it's usually more of a business venture for the off-season. NFL referees as well because they only worry about reffing 7 months of the year.
