Thread: Realistic enough - Thoughts
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Habs_22_14_20</b></div><div>The guy don’t know NJ prospects at all lmao
I don’t know why he is talking
Buium is one of the best dman in this draft
Having a future left side with Luke Hughes &amp; Zeev Buium and a right side of Hamilton &amp; Nemec is really good. When Hamilton plays decline, you have Casey Seamus to replace Dougie. Sieg won’t be there forever or could be traded when Buium is NHL ready</div></div>

Buium is probably a bit too similar to Luke. He is best with puck on his stick. Probably not same level of open ice skating and younger Hughes, but is great in tight spaces with puck. And likely becomes a d-zone exit magician, which is something NJD could use. At World Juniors, Casey paired with Buium. They were deployed more as defensive unit (did lent stop Buium from going forward). Would be fun as third pair.

But it’s all likely moot as I doubt Buium makes it to #10.

Thread: Famous Seamus the RD slash LD slash C
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NJDevils1317</b></div><div>This is the answer. We need two shutdown D, and Casey isn't that.</div></div>

We do need another veteran defensive option. But the point is that Casey is not as locked off the roster as others think.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GiggywithGibby</b></div><div>Why wouldn't you just play him at RW? As I recall, he's quite offensively gifted. Seems like he'd be an ideal 3RW instead of playing Palat on his off side</div></div>

He is an elite skater, ran the most successful power play in NCAA history, was used as defensive dman on world junior team, played LD in juniors and has even started a game as 1C for Michigan. If anyone in our system could make that switch, it’s probably him. (Although I’d put him at LW).

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Rags21</b></div><div>Again he threw a lot of questionable hits and I’m fine with it lmao but if he was in today’s league he would 100% be suspended and you fans would be defending him

I’m sorry you’re not a fan of contact in a contact sports. Maybe they should ban hits for you as well? So your pretty boy, skill-only team can not worry about being touched and injured</div></div>

Stevens is not playing in today’s league. Even he himself has said many of his hits would be called today. He played tough, but was not dirty. He was considered twice for DOPS job.

This is a post about fighting. I have no problem with physical elements of the game.

But taking cheap shots on unsuspecting players heads, with intent to injure, is not sport.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Rags21</b></div><div>The hit on Bastian was clean….it’s the same hit Trouba did to Meier and Nosek lmao. Shouldn’t be blaming the hitter when the guy with the puck has his head down. I guess Panarin is now dirty because he hit Oshie with his head down?

Lmao again, he isn’t scared of anyone. He would have fought Macdermid after the elbow but the refs weren’t allowing it. He stood there while Macdermid tried to go after him. He didn’t “back away” from a fight like devil fans make up in their mind

Lmao no respect? Every player’s interview about Rempe have said they respected him. Even your boy Macdermid took back what he said and gained a bit of respect</div></div>

He was served a match penalty for that hit.

“It’s a man’s game” lol. If you want to try and sound tough, be my guest, but even the strawman thinks he is dirty.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Rags21</b></div><div>Lmao besides elbowing Seigs, you can’t name another time he’s cheap shotted…..he did his time and learned his lesson

Lmao “backs away from fights” when he has accepted every heavyweight fight since his debut. I don’t know where you moron fans come up with this nonsense. He’s not afraid to fight anyone and he has shown it

He may not be good at hockey, but he’s better than the current enforcers like Reaves and Macdermid</div></div>


He has played 5 minutes in 3 games vs NJD, racked up 47 penalty minutes and was tossed from each one. He served one longer suspension for a head shot on Siegenthaler, but deserved an equal one for his flying elbow to Bastian’s head (while he was on his knees).

He is hated because he takes dirty, cheap shots at peoples head, and when called to answer, he backs off….(like when he did his little waive to Devils bench).

Most heavyweights are disliked, but somewhat respected. Rempe has zero respect from other players.
