I bet hitch stacks the first line again , leaving the Texas stars to man the bottom nine .

Now this is a GDT.

Also, I know they've ready said Hitch won't play a D at forward but Honka at forward would be sick. McKenzie is on his way up though.

Mackenzie desereves a chance in the top 6 with the season he’s having in the a. Would like to see him on the pp too he’s an upgrade over Ritchie for sure .

Good thread, unless it' a jinx, as recent ones seem to have been. Hope better quality GDT = better results.

Thanks. I'm going to create one for every game going forward. The formatting and info will evolve as I figure out the best content to include in it.

I also welcome anyone to create one if they want, and include anything they consider relevant. The more the merrier. Let's see if we can get things more active again.

At least Hitch is pretty honest about injuries. Somewhat of a trailblazer in that regard. I don't think any other coach would have come out and said that Bishop is out for two weeks, and state that its the knee again, especially at this point in the year. It shows respect to the fans who pay money to see certain players, and ends speculation from a media stand point.

I just hope the Stars play with the desperation they need to play with, and should have played with the last ten games or so. As far as I can tell, they are just tired, too tired to really compete. Of course, I hope I am wrong.

If they can put in the overall effort they did against Winnipeg (along with with some timely saves) there is no reason they can't put themselves in position to win.

I have a challenge for everyone in this GDT:

Let's try and be as positive as we can all game. No matter the score until the end. If we lose then we can go crazy :)

Since we lose so much lately it's been very negative around here. If we are positive=positive outcome?

Okay I know I said I would be positive but that was BS Radulov was clearly tripped. I mean as clear as it can get. Literally all the Caps players thought it was a penalty too
