Pre-Game Talk: Panthers @ Hawks

[IM Clutcm]

Does Kane kill penalties? If he does, he's gonna have a field day getting behind our molasses powerplay for a free shot mano a mano with Lu or Cubano.

Lol no. He's nowhere near the penalty kill.

I would think Luo gets both games vs CHI, and Montoya on Sat. vs BUF.

Lol no. He's nowhere near the penalty kill.

If I was the opposing coach and heavily scouted us. I'd put the quickest forwards on the team on the PK in their forward positions and always have one leaning on the blueline to catch us bobbling it on the line or a stray pass that's bound to happen. Every team who plays us should do that. We're already one of the slowest teams in the league and our puck carriers panic frequently on the powerplay. Deadly combo for us. Great for the opposition.

Kane is decent defensively 5v5, but he's not gritty enough to play on the penalty kill. It would hurt them more than it would help, even against the Panthers.

Kopecky doesn't surprised me one bit, he's been a mess in the last 2 games.

What happened to our best 4th line in the nhl?

It's been like the worst one for the past two months.

 

[SoupyFIN]

Oh right, PR can't make the GDT tonight.

So, any volunteers?

Nothing wrong with MacK, and Thorton has been great since he's been back.

Also Upshall, although promoted to the 3rd line, has also been really good after spending a lot of the year on the 4th line.

If no one else will, I'll get going one here. Just use the code from a previous.

Since I'm off for the day I can pick up some slack around here. :boredom;

I'm glad Kopy is sitting this one out, he should have sat the last game.
