This. If he can't make a go of it after being on this line, I would say he will be as good as gone before/at the trade deadline.

I totally agree. This is Teddy's last chance. It's time to put up some numbers like he did in the AHL or it bye bye time.

Johnson - Scuderi
Greene - O'Donnell

Quick

You're obviously unaware of the positions that they play.

I don't think anyone has ever suggested that Frolov play RW.

I'm sure glad I never bumped my "Will Williams outscore Patty O next year?" thread. Although, at this point Williams still may which is sad for both parties.

It was the ankle as I feared...

Quote:
“Kings forward Justin Williams today underwent successful ankle surgery. The expected recovery time is 12 weeks. The surgical procedure was performed by Dr. Ken Jung of Kerlan-Jobe Orthopaedic Clinic.”
3 months seems like a best case scenario.

Hopefully we'll get Willy back sometime in March, ready and rearing to go for that final playoff push plus the postseason.

Not a horrible scenario. We have plenty of good RWs to cycle through that number one line to see who works best.

Whitney would be a good acquisition. And my guess is he'll be willing to sign an extension with the kings as well.

I tore all my ankle ligaments playing football in high school, it was nasty. My injury was so bad that I sprained my knee at the same time because of how I got hurt. I had surgery where screws were attached to my bone to keep the ligaments in place. I was in a cast for 3 months and then a walking cast for another 3. One ligament is nothing. You usually tear a ligament everytime you sprain your ankle. They're pretty resilient.

Sorry this flu bug has really kicked my butt. I was sarcastically saying to re-trade an injured Williams. Ya know like how we got him.

Just being crazy, but I think you knew that.

Happy New Year, Brian.
