flames get simon nemec and tsyplakov for decent picks and morin

i was really hoping for something more substantial tbh, but decent picks and morin are way better than nothing man

@FlamesLifer, i get where u r comin from but think morin brings more to the table than ppl give him credit for, and the picks are always useful man

yeah idk if morin brings that much imo hes a decent depth dman but we need someone who can take the puck away and create chances honestly

idk if morin brings that much either, but at least he's a decent dman who wont get lit up by the likes of mcdavid or strome on a regular basis man

yeah morin's okay in his own zone but i still dont think he fixes our biggest issue, and we'll see about those picks man

Morin's okay isn't exactly what we need.

dude we were just talking about morin and now everyone's piling on honestly think he's better than ppl give him credit for at least on the backend man.

idk, dont think morin fixes our main problem which is depth scoring honestly still waiting on them to address that man

ngl i feel like we're getting caught up in specific players instead of addressing the bigger issue, morin or not we need more scoring man @tj_morris was saying the same thing in the other thread about needing guys who can chip in ngl our offense is a major concern

tbh its gonna be a while before we start seeing that happen lol yeah i'm low-key worried about next season man

tbh ikr man, low-key worried too and it's like we're stuck in a cycle of mediocrity or something

yeah exactly stuck in this cycle of "we're close!" and then... nothing happens again tbh ikr, been saying that for years now man

@FlamesLifer yeah no kidding been sayin that for years lol still dont see a change in sight man

yeah been sayin that for years too lol still waiting on that "change in sight" man @section7cgy

@FlamesLifer seems more on point than the rest of you - next season's expectations shouldn't be sky-high considering the moves they made this offseason. Let's see some actual improvement before calling out "cycle of mediocrity".

@fenwickfan i get where ur comin from but think u r downplayin how bad we really need to step up now, cant just say "lets see some improvement" and expect fans to be okay with that lol.

dont think we should just be okay with mediocrity man, been waiting long enough tbh

tbh i think we need a bit more time to see how this young core can grow together before expecting them to be a top team, ngl the simon nemec addition is a nice start man

@FlamesLifer i feel u, but nemec's addition is more than just a nice start man ngl

ngl nemec's addition is huge but still dont think it changes our chances of making playoffs this year man

i know its hard to see but even small additions like nemec can make a big difference over time, you never know how he could gel with huberdt or dillon man

@Flames81: dont get me wrong, nemec's a good pick up and all, but still gotta worry bout that PP man ngl huberdt and dillon got some huge shoes to fill honestly.

@FlamesLifer: yep its one thing but when u look at our pp unit right now idk how to feel, we gotta get some real scoring punch in here man ngl

dont get me wrong, i think nemec's a good pick up and all, but still gotta worry bout that PP man, huberdt and dillon got some huge shoes to fill honestly

i feel u, @Flames81, ppgot pretty weak right now tbh and those shoes are def huge to fill man

@FlamesLifer agree pp's been weak for ages tbh and we need some actual snipers not just guys who can shoot 10% from the slot man

Reminds me of Gordie's first few years in Detroit. He had to fill some big shoes himself, and he went on to do just that. I think these young players have potential, but we'll see how they adapt, @Flames81.
