Mangiapane is on hisassbuns so often he's learned how to make plays from down there
You mean every night. lolWould of loved to see this effort last night
Yeah. See if we crush Chicago but lose to Seattle it's seen as not as bad. Having this type of effort on a b2b w them rested shows what we CAN do. We just don't show enough consistency at all.Would of loved to see this effort last night
Why should be Ruzicka hitting somebody? That's not his forte. He is a creative guy and a goalscrer. He should be played where Milan's ass was planted for a few weeks! Get him a chance on that second line.Feels like that was an important win. To go into the break feeling good I think is very big for this team.
Great : Lindy, when he's the team's best player they're tough to beat. Loved Vlad tonight too. Hanifin had one very bad giveaway but overall one of his better performances this season.
Good : Quality Blake Coleman game, you need players like this. Mangiapane was involved, had some nice moments and a cpl not so great ones. Toffoli G + A hard to hate that. Zadorov, usually don't think much of this team's pro scouting but whoever it was that saw some potential in this guy deserves some credit. He has been very solid for the club.
Pretty good : Dube and Ras were fine. Gilbert wasn't great but a lot better than Mackey was. Stone blasting away. Lewis was on the right side of it for the most part.
Alright : Actually didn't love the Kadri line, not saying at all they should be broken up but don't think any of em played particularly well in this one. Lucic where he belongs is an asset. Backlund. Ruzicka if the coach was trying to light a fire under his ass I'm not sure he rose to the occasion. Made some nice plays through the NZ but like.. hit somebody. Just doesn't seem particularly suited to 4C duty.

I dont see how Pelletier has passed Ruz. He's signed next year for league minumum and should get more icetime as long as Lewis or Ritchie aren't re-signed.At this point I'd think about trading ruz for an equivalent young D. He's been passed by Pelletier alr and there isn't any room for him in the top 9. He should be a valuable asset around the league and we need a someone at least better than stone rn.
