Bolduc line rushes for Mont

[b-a-a-a-rclay]

The Mikkola contract extension starts next season when he will be 30. It runs until he is 38. Sure, we can build upon that. Or can we? How many contracts like that would be smart to hand out? Don't we talk about DA blocking young players when he signs a vet to a long contract? Oh hold it.

I don’t think Mikkola is better than Broberg defensively, but that’s not what the question was. Would you cut Broberg’s minutes to give them to Mikkola?
I agree on Faulk though.

You build a team. They are different players. Mikkola does things Broberg can’t

like what ?

You can’t think of anything? You’ve watched both guys … no?

[b-a-a-a-rclay]

If the game were only played on a certain third of the ice, Mikkola might be as good or better than Broberg. But if you play the game on a full sheet of ice ...

It’s different roles. Broberg is a boy. That’s why you see 160 pound twigs protecting that boy.

Wait … so you can’t identify things Mikkola brings that Broberg doesn’t?

That’s funny

Good one. Enjoy rooting for Broberg like you claim you do. Don't get upset when people start talking about him being elite.

Hey guys, you aren't going to believe this. Broberg can do things that Mikkola can't do. Isn't that crazy?

It’s the truth. Did 160 pound goaltender step in and protect him or not. Don’t get mad or project because of it.

Yeah that’s what I said. You add so much depth in your passive aggressive way lol

That stuff doesn't count because he is a *little boy*. I'll bet it hurts his feelings when a message board warrior calls him that. He will be one of the top dmen in the NHL for several years.

Mikkola is still the same player he was with the Blues: talented skater with a good shot and a long reach. He also plays with an edge. He is still mistake prone and he doesn’t make little mistakes. As far as Walman, he’s with his 5th team already. HE’S the best they could with the money McDavid left on the table?

You didn’t admit 160 pound goaltender felt the need to protect him. You deflect away.

Too painful? Weird you can’t talk about it
