  Agree Timmins did good but I'd rearrange the rankings as: Kane Couture Pacioretty Subban McDonagh Perron Simmonds JVR
• Comment on Canadiens' countdown begins
  I've watched him as well and I agree with everything you've said, except I think he's more skilled than you give him credit for. Plus, he is pretty gritty for a skilled player and is always mixing it up in the scrums. I'm looking forward to watching future Hab Grigorenko. ;)

  Martin Frk should be a late 1st/early 2nd rounder. He has loads of skill and a bit of grit (for a skilled player), but consistency issues.
• Comment on Liveblog: Cammalleri to Calgary
  Agree on all players. If things get bad enough, I would mark Gionta as expendable as well.
• Comment on Liveblog: Three in a row
  He has sucked in all zones for near a month now. It's almost comical how much he hates contact.
• Comment on Liveblog: Plus ça change ... Devils 5 - Canadiens 3
  What exactly is Cammalleri's purpose? He's terrible right now. Avoids contact at ALL costs.
• Comment on About last night ...
  I'm certainly no coach, but on the Raymond SH goal, I'm almost certain that it was Gionta that failed to cover the point on the Emelin pinch. It was his indecision right before Raymond was sprung that caused the 2 on 1. Kostitsyn was the player who had and shot the puck when Emelin pinched, therefore there is no way he is responsible for covering for Emelin. Pointing out simply because AK46 gets way too much heat. Most warranted, but this one wasn't.
