Hopefully cappy can go after a rough outing in Nashville, otherwise our center depth is looking truly thin.

Man Dallas, Colorado continue to win. We must continue doing what we are doing. Breathing space (3 point lead) to the 1st wild card would be welcomed!

I m liking what I am seeing. An identity is starting to come into form. Gritty bunch with timely scoring, great goaltending, and improved defensive zone exits.

All good...



That's good news. I would still like to see Rosie given a chance at C but that line is working pretty well right now as is.

I wish he would also announce that Niku and Chibisov would be playing tomorrow. ;)

Moose are in Belleville tonight. It would be an easy flight to Dallas from Toronto in the morning if needed. More likely a centre though.

I didn't wonder at the Nashville yeller,
Nor praise the deep vermilion in Mo’s chilled nose;
They were but sweet, but don’t deserve a beller*,
Behold our Gell’d Jets, no slatterns, any of those.
Yet seems it winter still, in Dallas, they away,
And in your shadows we HF boardsmen play.

I don't really get wanting to see Rosie at center at this point in time. He is probably in the midst of his biggest development jump forward on a line with Ehlers, to then interrupt this by forcing him to become the defensive conscience of the line with a depleted defense corp seems really unnecessary as we have Wheeler holding this down and playing very well in this role.

Pretty difficult with them both in the AHL. Moose are on the road in Ontario & just won their 7th straight tonight over Belleville.

Who exactly is Niku an upgrade over of the guys on D now? We've already got two smaller size D men and doubt we need a third, I'd agree Niku was a big upgrade over the potato or the Dullstroom but over Sbisia it might be a wash!

Last 2 visits to Dallas= 2 PP goals against each game. Hopefully the PK can come through or the Jets aren't given too many penalties.

I love Copp to death, and he saved the game for us in Nashville in the last few seconds, but perhaps the PP experiment could be modified/tuned up a little?
