I watched every game, he had the worst +/- on the team (It's not an end all stat, but still, that's pretty bad for a guy with NHL exp.). He wasn't scoring that much, wasn't creating chances. He was bad.

You saw every game. You should be able to say something less general than that. Help me understand what your problem with his play was.
I already explained that in my previous post. He didn't forecheck hard, he wasn't that physical, he didn't score a lot, and he was sloppy on defense. Explain to me how he wasn't bad please?

Now you want to argue semantics? How about you actually answer my question...Stop with the strawman argument, while trying to dodge the argument.

Yet, you didn't mention any of them. That is why I asked you to specify what your problems were. You said that you had already said those things. You didn't. After all, why would I assume plus-minus might not be relevant on a team with weak goaltending and a shaky blueline?
Duckscolorman: @WhalerBilly Indeed, rookie Rickard Rakell present at #NHLDucks practice, even getting some 2nd-line reps between #Teemu8 and #b_ryan9.
Bonino really hasn't done anything to impress. All this hype from the coaching staff about his work offseason has just resulted in an early letdown.
I'm all for letting Rakell join the big boys but i'm still patiently waiting for Holland to get his chance. I continually value him as our top prospect and have for some time. I wonder if there is more behind the scenes. You would think he's earned his due by now. Especially if they are considering bumping Bonino off the second line.
Good for Peter. Hoping he gets his shot. Was Bonino on the ice today?
Yah I wouldn't mind seeing Holland play. Also wouldn't mind seeing Etem called up or a few games eventually, and see both Holls and Etem on a line together for a bit.
