Nash on the second line?

No Bouwmeester - Pietrangelo pairing?

Subban as a regular?

Bwhahhaaaahahaahahahahhhha

Benn-Tavares-Nash

Yes… Nash on the 2nd line with Benn. Tavares deserves the number 2C spot on this team without any doubt, he will make anyone good. With the size and skill of both Nash and Benn on the wings will make this line scary.

Subbans a difference maker.. This guy needs to be on the team. Provides energy, skill, hitting. Sure he's young but I'd rather have him on my team over Bouwmeester anyway.

I have a feeling Canada is gonna love PK after these Olympics.

Like, why would you have ********* MArleau as the capt--- and Nash on the team? I'll lapse back into my coma if that happens. And Nash on the first line? He's not even in the NHL anymore, and you want him to play with elite HOFSTAR Benn???????

I agree, he shouldn't be on the first line… but other then that what? :help:

Well, for the D pairings he put 2 left-handed players on the same line, as well as 2 right-handed players despite not being forced to. He also has Doughty riding the pine, which shouldn't happen.

Kunitz needs to be with Crosby, Toews needs to be with Sharp, and Perry needs to be with Getzlaf, and Price should be the starter over Smith.

But other than that it's fine.

I was only talking about Nash.

But regarding what you said I disagree with the Toews and Sharp having to be on the same line. Better options for Toews even without teammate chemistry, in my opinion.

don't agree with Smith either. The team infront of him made his numbers look better than he truely is. Not to mention his antics.

Is Toews going to play with Sharp?

People who think PK Subban is a "wildcard" or "selfish" don't know the first thing about him, and I highly doubt they've watched a single Habs game. Just watch his interviews and you can see the kid puts his team first and he is very respectful.

Those of you who think otherwise watch a little too much Don Cherry and too few hockey games.

I think playing the Olympics is really going to help him continue to grow as well. Being completely surrounded by elite teammates will bring out the best in him imo.

This is probably the funniest thing I've ever read on HF. And that's saying a lot.

Trying to fight uneducated opinions on HFBoards is virtuous. Good luck with that.
