Part of the reason why I never watch the preseason is it's completely unimportant and I don't have to watch a bunch of millionaires half ass it out there like what's happening tonight apparently

Cool story, bro.

Okay @surixon I am a Perfetti convert... but now I want to see Nino-Perfetti-Vilardi

I like Lambert's game considering he's thrown to the wolves a bit - I think he will be one of our top 2Cs next season

Heinola looking NHL - Pionk not... and he SHOULD be trying...

Best case scenario is someone grabs Stanley on waivers - but he's not league minimum...

Toninato looking better than Kupari

Parker Ford making a case... maybe Iafallo-Lowry-Ford is a line that makes sense... he plays positional D

 

[jungles]

Not seeing much from Kupari so far.

 

[aqsw]

Heinola not playing much, but damn, he looks good.

Yeah, I think pace of play Vilardi would look good with those two. Wish we would have gotten to see how Ehlers looked with them this pre season.

 

[Atoyot]

Coronato. What a shot.

 

[rehf]

Pionk has been terrible

 

[jungles]

Helle not much better

 

[rehf]

This team is nowhere near close to being a contender defensively

 

[Atoyot]

I feel like that shouldn't count but I've only seen it once and I might be biased.

 

[jungles]

Honestly, Capo and Heinola the only defenders that have looked worth a damn this whole preseason.

[Atoyot]

Bottom 6 playing a lot more now. Bowness has decisions to make.

 

[rehf]

Our D is pretty much opening night lineup, I guess I should have worded that better. Our regular D look flat out bad.

 

[surixon]

Perfetti's linemates have to read him better there. That was was an obvious dump situation and Noone was there to provide support.

 

[Atoyot]

Really good shift by Namestnikov there.

 

[Mud Turtle]

Really good shift by Namestnikov there.

We’ve gained some really defensively responsible forwards this year.

 

[rehf]

Yeesh, Morrissey has given up the puck at the blue line twice tonight.

 

[Atoyot]

Bad Morrissey. Bad.

 

[jungles]

What is Morriseys problem today? Sheesh.

 

[Buffdog]

I think Gus and Ford are the 13th and 14th forwards

Somehow Ville needs to get in the lineup. He sees the game so well and has such great skating/edge work. This seems like more of a "chevy issue" than a "bowness issue". Maybe Schmidt on the IR to start the season buys chevy some time to make a deal to clear out a vet to fix rhe logjam

 

[jungles]

Not to give the team excuses, but if a handful are out sick, a bunch more are probably in the early stages.

Why was Stanley even freaking out there?

 

[lablite47]

Same, same... Sick of this team being out shot

What is it with these guys? I think se need more Canadians?

Sure couldn't hurt. They are gutless!

Yep. We're inherently better.

EDIT: I feel like it should be obvious, but

 

[surixon]

Preseason is preseason. I'm not reading anything into the shots tonight but my concerns about this teams offensive schemes persist.

Good first, bad second and fairly even third imo.

Perfetti looking more comfortable down the middle each game. Still has some reads to iron out but that will come with more reps. I think they want fly with him to carry most of the offensive generation while he gets comfortable.

Heinola with another solid game, making a strong case to stick.

Stanley needs to go.

Glad I'm not in Bones position on that last depth spot. Many players have made a case.

Vets were being vets in preseason.

One more to go.
