Go figure. 4th liner Danforth isn't a 1C against a good team. Shocking to all except the bald guys running the CBJ.

But what can one expect from a group which trots out 8 on its 1PP unit. Jokers.
Nobody thinks Danforth is a real 1C, they're trying to keep lines together that have shown chemistry. You know that, but that doesn't make your argument for you. What would you do? Break up what's worked? Put Kuraly or Sillinger there? Put Laine at C?

Fantilli is going to "work" with anyone. Wasting Gaudreau and Laine with an obscenely miscast Danforth is not a sound strategic move.

So many 2 on 1's wasted without a shot. Also refs letting all the little stuff go which is good, hope they dont ruin it by calling something stupid.

fantilli and johnson have worked together when on the ice, but the lineup isn't "working" because that's been their best line and pazzy will only put them out there for 12 minutes a night.

therefore: putting fantilli on the top line isn't "breaking up what worked" – it's breaking up a lineup that isn't working by constructing a lineup that will force pazzy to give the good players more ice time than the bad ones.

rather than adjust the lines just adjust the coaching.

A lot of pucks in skates and almost passes. Hopefully it'll all come together in the third and we can get some offense going.

If Vincent has decided that Danforth will play with Gaudreau, let Laine play center. Justin is awful there.

Fantilli doesn't need to be moved, just as long as Danforth isn't there to play center.

I like Danforth a lot. But I’m surprised Vincent hasn’t moved Sillinger, who the franchise seems to feel is solution at center, to switch with Danforth to give him a shot with the on paper top forwards.

Danforth is a winger - speed skater. Ideal to the 4th line with Kuraly.
