[Rayzorexe]

Reimer on Friday and Bernier on Saturday?

 

[The Reaper]

I say go with Reimer on Friday

He deserves it.

 

[VaughanBender72]

I say play reimer before he loses, don't mess up the flow

 

[snizzbone*]

Would like to see Gardiner in for Robidas.

Percy - Polak
Phaneuf - Rielly/Franson
Gardiner - Franson/Rielly

 

[A1LeafNation]

Bernier on the road, he cant handle the ACC.

 

[Cor]

I'm not making the GDT, so we'll probably lose.

All jokes aside...whoever has a better record against the wings goes IMO. So let's see who it is.

[Finnish your Czech]

Wait, my Toronto Maple Leafs?

 

[highslot]

reimer should play. confidence is more important than athleticism or even pure skill in a goalie. ride the wave.


i too, would also like corsi gardiner in, robidas out.

Phaneuf - Franson
Percy - Polak
Gardiner - Rielly

is what we will see D wise I think.

 

[colchar]

What channel (Rogers in the GTA) is it on? I searched the on-screen guide on my PVR so that I could set it to tape but, according to that, the game isn't being broadcast.

 

[The Winter Soldier]

Same line up until we lose. You do not change a thing when you are winning.

 

[HamiltonNHL]

Detroit looked pretty bad vs. Bruins.
Were dominated in the third and overtime.
Hopefully they keep up the poor play

 

[Paradoc]

Bernier sucks on Saturday, please make him play on friday.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Phaneuf - Franson
Percy - Polak
Gardiner - Rielly

is what we will see D wise I think.

That top pair is gonna get danced so hard. I don't like Dion and Cody on the PP together, no way would I have them as an even strength pairing. Too slow.

 

[zeke]

they looked good against the super speedy avalanche.

They managed to do alright against a very speedy Colorado team in the previous game ... But I also have my concerns

Fair enough. Guess we'll see how it goes come Friday then.

Hopefully whenever Gardiner gets in he plays his side. Stupid Randy always puts him with Morgan on his offside. He did this last season, and when Gards switched he started tearing it up. Obviously Randy would put him where he struggles though...

 

[Banic]

Same line up until we lose. You do not change a thing when you are winning.

So say we win 20 in a row, then lose 1, you then start making changes? The logic is flawed. If there is a chance to improve your team you take it, that's why cup contenders make trades at the deadline regardless of a win streak.

Thats who I am pegging also...historically just stat based both of our goalies are pretty bad against the wings. None of them have much of a career against them but Reimer has a slight edge. I believe Bernier has only placed once in the Joe Louis arena also as a back up?

So this should be interesting.

I am scared of this line up too as I think many are...I feel like one of Morgan or Gards should get there soon...however if all seems probable it'll be Robidas or Polak sitting down in the next game to bring yards in...it would be ludicrous to bench gardiner three games in a row.

 

[hockeygeek]

i would give Robidas the benefit of the doubt over Gardiner every day of the week.
