Wild Cleared a Roster Spot

Recommended Posts

My buddy heard that the Wild cleared a roster spot for Thursday's game. For.........#10...Hopefully. I'm so sick of Gaborick. I'm onto his game. Only play half or 3/4 of this year to extend his career. Start pouring it on to increase his free agency value. The worst part is that the wild won't be able to trade him because we will be in a playoff race. Just another Minnesota sports story.

The whole thing sucks. You know he will leave and when he does he will turn into a super star and win a cup somewhere else.

The good thing about him playing somewhere else is we might get to see the boogie man put Gaborik through the glass smile

I'd leave him sit for the rest of the season, why waste a roster spot for him when you could be grooming a younger player who actually wants to play here? Oh sure he could score a bunch, but rest assured he will dissappear when playoff hockey starts. Such a waste of talent!

Has anybody else noticed that Lemaire is starting to use Boogey a little more in the offense and not just an enforcer? I seen in the past few games he posts up right in front of the goalie for rebounds and to be used as a screen. I think the Wild are missing old Parrish.

Boogies out there b/c none of our forwards (except Clutterbuck and Koivu) will go anywhere near the front of the net, or, gasp, into the corners to dig the puck out. Bunch of skirts is what we got here.

    • Truly sorry to hear that duffman! I know that feeling.  Keep the good memories  
    • Chamois passed away this weekend a couple days short of her 13th bday. What a great dog to hang out with here at home and on distant adventures. Gonna miss ya big time my little big girl.
    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.
    • Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...
    • Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
    • We have bought a new boat, which we will be picking up this spring. It is an Alumacraft Competitor 165 sport with a 90 horse Yamaha motor. I will be buying and installing a trolling motor,  wondering if I can get some recommendations on what pound thrust I will want for this boat?  Also, I will be selling my old boat, is there a good way to determine the value on an older boat ( mid-80's with a 75 horse 2-stroke  Mariner motor)  I will appreciate any help with these questions.
