honestly cant say im shocked tbh thought he was gonna stick around but guess not man

tbh i dont think he was worth losing a depth guy for man we needed him on the roster imo

i feel u, darren was def a depth guy we can find elsewhere tbh his exit dont hurt me lol

yeah but we can also find someone who wont get injured every other game lol

ngl i think we're being a bit harsh on darren, he had some good games last season and idk if anyone else is gonna be that consistent @section114tbl lol yeah finding someone who can stay healthy is easier said than done man

yea alex u havnt mentioned lucas raymond yet lol i know why he had some good games last season and its def not cuz hes lazy or anything

ngl raymond is the only guy i trust with the puck right now man he's been doing it for years and can actually finish a play

ngl i gotta agree with u alex, lucas raymond is literally the only guy who seems like he knows how to play rnh man some of these other guys just fumble it away lol

idk if i'd go that far lol but def raymond's had the most consistency out of all our guys for yrs man

@section114tbl said:

i guess u r right about raymond lol but dont think thats an excuse for the rest of these guys to be so sloppy with possession man

yep cant expect the rest of them to pick up if raymond's doing all the work himself lol

yep cant argue with that alex lol, raymond's just on a different level with hockey iq than most of these other guys

honestly think the whole team needs a reboot, been sayin it for yrs now and nothing ever changes man, raymond's just gettin older and more worn out lol

ngl alex ur right tho, raymond's gettin older and u can see the wear n tear on him now man

yup can see it now, been happenin for yrs ngl his games are gettin fewer and farther between lol

yep can see it too lol been sayin that for yrs now and they just keep rollin with it, smh @LightningLifer

yep can see it too, been gettin pretty bad lately, think we need a legit dman to step up ngl

totally agree need a dman with some girth and grit out there, dont think anyone on our current roster can step up man @Lightning88

idk man i think aikins has some potential, hes been playin some decent D in the AHL lol maybe we should give him a shot?

@section114tbl aikins hasnt exactly been makin waves, havent seen much from him ngl gotta start seeing something on the big club before we even think about giving him a shot man

i dont know man, idk if we should give up on aikins just yet tbh he's gotta get some experience somewhere lol

agree, gotta give him chance somewhere.

ngl aikins got some decent upside but we gotta stop expecting him to magically fix our d woes lol like i get it man

i feel you tho, aikins got some skills but our D has been a disaster for years lol like we cant expect one guy to fix it all by himself

i feel like our d is a deeper problem than just one guy fixin it tho we got some decent pieces but somethin needs to click man @LightningLifer

@alex_lightning said:

i think we overrate our "decent pieces" lol aikins is def gotta get some experience but at least he's got talent man @LightningLifer i feel you tho about one guy fixin it all

i think we're sellin it short by callin them decent pieces, gotta remember how we built our team for years ngl our defense has been a mess lol @section114tbl

ngl alex_lightning got some valid points tho idk how u can say we built our team for years lol, more like we threw a bunch of $$ at some good prospects and hoped they worked out man

i think u r bein kinda harsh tbh throwing $$ at prospects is all teams are doin nowadays man, gotta give bolts credit for tryna build somethin @alex_lightning maybe he can chime in on how they built the team?

@alex_lightning man i gotta agree ngl, if we just threw cash at some good prospects like u said then why dont our young guys develop faster? @Lightning88

tbh i get where u r comin from but maybe we're just havin a bad luck streak with our prospects man @Lightning88
