Pre-Game Talk: Islanders @ Sens Dec. 5 Don't Hassle the Hoff Edition

[DrEasy]

We won with 11 forwards; let's not change a winning formula. Or maybe go further and run with 10 forwards or less.

 

[internetdotcom]

Go Sens go!

Easy win.

I liked the 1st PP unit last game:

Stone-Turris-Ryan
Hoff-EK

Stone is an upgrade over Milo. Zib's slapper would be deadly if he ever hit the net.

 

[DylanSensFan]

Maybe he will remember how to score???

Was going to say, maybe it knocked the sense back into him.

 

[Icelevel]

I have no idea when and where this game is on. Seriously what a waste of a thread title.

Should definitely run with this for a while... Load it up

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

Just win dammit

 

[Sun God Nika]

This powerplay is actually such a sick set up

............... Karlsson
......Ryan ---------- Hoff
.........Opposing - Opposing
................Turris
.........Opposing - Opposing
.................Stone
...........Opposing Goalie


only downside is it takes them a long time to setup, and if it gets cleared its pretty much impossible to re set-up, unless you win an O-Zone faceoff and everyone hurries to position. Also is built around Karlsson, other dmen/forwards at that position could fumble passes much easier, and have less confidence in a situation where everything relies on them.

 

[HispanicAtTheDisco]

So, any ideas for what the lines will be?

 

[Nets Cash]

Well, it's either Zib or an AHL call up. Milo's on the shelf for a while...

I wouldnt believe what Garrioch says, he doesnt even know who Ottawa is playing tonight: http://www.ottawasun.com/2015/12/05/gameday-ottawa-senators-vs-new-york-rangers

he even wrote up a karlsson vs lundqvist comparison.

Or if he ever actually connected. That guy slaps at wind

Would prefer if Hoffman was on the other side to get a one time off. But it's doing well. So whatever. But when it's not doing well I'll be back!

 

[Alex1234]

I like it

Go sens go


Who takes turn at PK?

Pageau,Zib Smith and chia I guess

since we have to rest Turris and Stone for PP

well at least that means he's free tomorrow

 

[topshelf15]

Yep, biggest issue with him.Maybe he needs to take a little off of it to gain some sort of advantage of actually getting it off

 

[BonkTastic]

Wiercioch is the healthy scratch.


So we've got that going for us.

 

[Blarginator]

Wiercioch is the healthy scratch.


So we've got that going for us.

It's really sad how bad Wiercioch has been this year. I thought that Cowen would be the odd man out but even him has showed a bit of improvement over last year.

On an other note, does anyone here have a spare time machine? We should use it to go back in 2008-2009 and get Filip Kuba. He had great chemistry with young Karlsson and he could probably be a great mentor to Ceci. We badly need a top 4 D for that second pairing. It's the biggest piece we are missing right now.

Now I really want to make a GDT with this article at the top, but fear they'll catch it before I finish.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

I'd like to see

Hoffman, Turris, Ryan
Prince, Pageau, Stone
