I had to quote this once again... But I am really not going for Tambs but someone from the Bridge that may jump start our team Walter/Comeau. This was a fun one to bring up and it will come up again and so will the dead horse . |

Tamby is putting up the best numbers, with 19 points in 18 games, at the Bridge. Let the kid come up and let him actually play and not bench him for stupid reasons. |

Keywords in your post AT THE BRIDGE Are they playing the same style of hockey down there? Different coach, different teammates, different LEAGUE. Will he put up same numbers here? Last time he didn't. (Last YEAR I mean). |

Nolan has set up Bridgeport to play a similar game...it was a main concern for him over the summer. |

Bring back...PRIDE OF THE ISLAND
|
the minors are different come on. yeah nolan wanted the same system. when the guys do come up, they won't be confused. and in my opinion, he's not that good. I would rather have walter on the team. In fact, tamby won't ever make the team. |

Great to see. The key in Nolan's quote is "given enough time." Don't expect him to score a hat trick on his first three shifts, but once he gets a few games under his belt, he will begin putting pucks in. The kid deserves a legitimate shot on one of the top lines, and I think he's ready to contribute. Scratch Bates or Bergy or whoever, and give the kid a shot. |

I read that as having absolutely no confidence in him and he's a long shot at best. That word "Hopefully" speaks volume in that lack of confidence. |

At this point, Hilbert has buried any hope/confidence I may have had that he could become more than a 4th liner. |

All because of that one play? I know, because it's not the first time. But Hunter, Guerin, Satan, Vasicek had good scoring chances and failed to score as well against the Rangers. Yes, let's "get rid" of Hilbert folks. Bring up tambellini, he's the saviour. he's the answer. heck anyone is. right? patience, beats frustration every time. I have it. Thank god Nolan does too. 13-9-1

I am glad at the season we are having thus far - don't get me wrong. Can you imagine what our record would be if we had a scorer? Losses like the Flyer games, the Boston game last week and even the Capital game earlier in the year could be converted into 2 points. I am just concerned because our defense can't keep this ridiculous pace and we have now struggled for offense for over 1/2 the season (2 goals or less in 14 of 24 games). While Tambellini may not be a savior (who knows?), a change clearly needs to be made. Its a change that's worth a try. Can we score any less? Pls don't answer that. |

And that change is clearly NOT any Hilbert. Bergenheim is doing a heck of alot less with more "talent". If everyone played with Hilbert's effort every night, we wouldn't need to worry about scoring. Hilbert is arguably our best defensive forward. Better than Hunter, Silly and Park. Sitting him is a mistake, but if Nolan is trying to get a message to him fine. I trust Nolan. I don't trust some of the "get rid of Hilbert" yahoos. |

Research at the NYIC Sports Bureau shows that in the last 5 games Bill Guerin has missed the net 4 times more than Hilbert.

Yes...and I'm sure he's doing it against goalies like Brodeur, Lundqvist, Emery and defensemen like Witt, Campbell and Rafalski at that level. |

The difference is that... Hunter 4g 6a 10p Guerin 5g 6a 11p Satan 7g 8 a 15p Vasicek 9g 3a 12p and there is hilbert 1g 1a 2p And if you say he's for the pk and D, you can say the same thing about park Park 3g 5a 8p |

a grand whopping total of 6 points difference between Park and Hilbert... great point. You really showed the "Hilbert apologists". Bergie has a grand total of 5 points and he's been on second line all season. Yet you are critical of Hilbert? |

No sense in calling Tambellini up if he's only going to get 6 minutes of ice time a game. And you know that's just what will happen if he comes up here. |

I don't think so. After a scoring slump like this i wouldnt be surprised to see Tambellini or Walter get some time with comrie or guerin to get them going. I have a feeling he's going to come out on fire (energy wise, not necessarily scoring right away).
