PH... you and everyone replacing Bergie.... No, Jackman probably - once Bates earns his spot. Then Bergie will have to compete with Park/Bates for that 2nd line position as we'll have another center in the mix for the fourth line.

I hope he stays in the Bridge for the whole season. He is going to be taking dumb penalties, and it is probably going to hurt us. You never know but I do not think he is going to help us. |

Bring back...PRIDE OF THE ISLAND
|
bergenheim-comrie-fedotenko maybe teddy would prob give this a try, but I think bergie has to work just a little bit harder to be on a top line. As of right now, he really hasn't done much to warrent it. I mean the guy is invisible out there. Sure he doesn't get much ice time, but geez look at walter when he was up, he got less ice time, and you knew when that kid was on the ice. If bergenheim doesn't start to shape up, I could see him being in the same boat, like robert niellsen,(however you spell his name). Don't get me wrong I like bergenheim...but give me something to cheer about. Show me that you give you damn. Show me that you want to play for us. Right now, the guy sucks. I wish we didn't sign him this year. Cause he sure doesn't look like he wants to play for us. |

I think Bates is going to finish out his conditioning stint, which means he will play in Bridgeport over the weekend, and he might be up next week. |

I think you 100% right... Bates will play in Bridge through the weekend and the depending on how we play through to Monday they will evaluate the needs for him up here. I think after the Ranger game next week he could start getting regular shift time on the 3/4th line. |

I hope we sweep in Boston. Bates lacks the discipline to stay out of the box, an area where the team has improved since last year. |

I agree to a point. Bergies speed and hustle have impressed me. He hits and forechecks hard, but his hands have not been good. He has not been good on the puck. He is not expected to be an Andy Hilbert type with all hustle and 2 way play but no points. Bergie needs to find the scoresheet more than he has. |

No way Bates plays anything above 4th line. Remember, it was Nolan who regulated him to 4th line duty last year and Bates has done nothing to show he merits any time above that. Nolan will keep him at 4th line barring an injury to someone else...or perhaps not dress a healthy Bates. After all, who on the 4th line is in need of being sat down? |

Jackman will go down after the Rangers if Bates is healthy, while I don't hink Jackman has played bad I just think Bates is going to play. Teddy will start him on the 4th line and I also agree he won't see much 3rd line play unless someone is having a bad night. |
