I can't wait to see these lineup decisions when Alan "he scored an OT playoff goal once, so now he's a regular" Quine comes back.
I like the new Nelson a lot... if Pelech continues to play like this we will have our shut down dman for sure. Mayfield has played very smart.
I don't like Eberle with JT at all, I think Isles need to put Bailey on the line with JT and Eberle in Bailey's spot. JT is not getting that many touches with Eberle commanding the puck, that is why JT's invisible at times.
Really hate the suggestion that because Pulock has a cannon that that will come close to fixing the PP issues. They are so much deeper than a hard shot.
JT is playing on the perimeter a lot and that is where any shots he takes are coming from. He does not have a powerful enough shot from distance, he has to play down low where he has traditionally been a force.
Exactly. The problem with the PP isn't that it's missing a cannon..... the problem is multifaceted, the mindset is too pass heavy, too predictable, poor personnel decisions and poor positioning.
They need to go back to the formula that worked for them the last time they were a top 5 PP team with a much worse offense. Two things they were missing the past few years the prevented it from happening.
1. Mark Streit - Not exactly the player, but the smart defensemen playing on his off side (Streit was a LHD playing on the right point)
2. A RH player with vision that can open passing lanes, as well as rip a quick one timer for the LH half boards.
He's my boy LOL, but he is only getting into the lineup if we have a few injuries, Quine is a stabilizing force on a team with a lot of riverboat gamblers now lOLI can't wait to see these lineup decisions when Alan "he scored an OT playoff goal once, so now he's a regular" Quine comes back.
I'd give Barzal the 3rd star for being the forward who looked like he gave the most **** about us winning.
JT is being forced to dig the puck out of corners and be the setup man on his line because both his wingers want to shoot and try to get to the front of the net. One of Eberle or Lee has to be moved off that line and replaced with someone that can dig in the corners and set up plays.
Good point. Thinking outside the box....what about moving all the RWs down one line and putting Clutterbuck on line one??
Gotta feel for Barzal.
Still looking for his first NHL point in game 8.
On the other hand, Brock Nelson is our leading scorer and Ho-Sang is PPG through 4 games.
They should absolutely be 2/3rds of a middle six line.
He's going to send down JHS and Barzal for Bernier and Gionta. We'll lose, but at least we will be gritty losers!Not surprised we took out a good young player for useless Chimera.
I am surprised that the good young player was Beau.
Weight needs to snap out of it.
I wonder what genius move Einstein has up his sleeve for tonight's game. Gonna guess he goes with the same lineup & sits Beau again.
