Moves the puck well and is a decent skater. Its definitely a good AHL pickup one that could have a long career. Schmitz' playoff was extremely disappointing after going pointless and -4 in 7 games. - Dean Youngblood Tue, 24 Apr 2012 12:29:33 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/other-features-mainmenu-89/archived-ramblings/4585-april-24-2012#comment-20568 I think his icetime is just because MacLean has done such a good job rolling 4 lines, which has been an advantage for Ottawa over the Rangers. There's just not too much extra ice time to go around. - Carl Flintoff Tue, 24 Apr 2012 07:47:00 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/other-features-mainmenu-89/archived-ramblings/4585-april-24-2012#comment-20567 According to the announcers in last night's game. - Repent Tokyo Tue, 24 Apr 2012 06:06:32 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/other-features-mainmenu-89/archived-ramblings/4585-april-24-2012#comment-20566 LMAO!

I think he needs to be playing a top 6 role rather than the third line energy/checking role, which he is not built for, but many will argue that he hasn't earned it and isn't good enough. I think CHI was actually a terrible fit for him as he is stuck behind a lot of very skilled players that he would never replace on those top two lines. Whilst many would raise their eyebrows if he was traded again, having only recently gone to CHI, I think a trade would be the best thing for him. Maybe an interesting fit for him would be someowhere like WSH? - UKflames Tue, 24 Apr 2012 04:37:16 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/other-features-mainmenu-89/archived-ramblings/4585-april-24-2012#comment-20561 re Foligno he has been very solid in the series so far, so has Smith especially in Lundqvists crease - paul Tue, 24 Apr 2012 04:23:37 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/other-features-mainmenu-89/archived-ramblings/4585-april-24-2012#comment-20560 Dobbs...nice read as usual...So next year will we see the stifling defensive forecheck games of LA, Phoenix, STL and Nashville take over the East? Much faster game when played this way with lots of hits, more playoff like hockey all the time...;D - mike hess Tue, 24 Apr 2012 04:10:21 +0100
