Would be nice for Mrazek to get some exposure... No reason to keep playing Howard every game.

If Holland is seriously looking to deal Mrazek at the TDL, Then Blashill needs to give him some games here.

Over the past 4 games, Green has gotten and average of 1:39 on the PP while Kronwall has gotten 3:03.
Mantha off PP is interesting...question is why?
Since being pulled against St. Louis he has a .920 and 2.33 GAA in his last 6 games.Jimmy Howard since nov 19.

Blashill and Howard are Thelma and Louiseing over the ****ing cliff.

I think Mrazek should be getting more starts, but Howie hasn't been as awful as you make him sound lately.
Mantha questionable tonight
From what Blashill said Mantha has an nagging injury, Pretty sure that has something to do with him off from the PPMantha off PP is interesting...question is why?
Well he's been pretty invisible lately.Shades of Franzen? So it shouldn't make much of a difference then.From what Blashill said Mantha has an nagging injury, Pretty sure that has something to do with him off from the PP
Things that nag around are usually the groin, back, or any connective tissues which would probably be in the knee, hip, or shoulder areas. Either way, when it comes to these injuries it is best to rest and let them heal. Keep pushing it and they will keep sticking around. Let Mantha rest up, it isn't like we are in the playoff race.If it's a nagging injury sounds like maybe his back is flaring up don't really know.

I wanted to comment on that PP but forgot! Kronwall and Zetterberg laboring to the bench I wondered who was more tired, the penalty killers or our PP group. Man they looked wore out.That's just due to one unit being clearly better at setting up on the PP than the other. Also last game that "#1 unit" had sustained pressure fore like 1:40 on one of the PPs. Stuff like that adds up, especially when your other unit is getting the hook after 40-50 seconds of failing on zone entry.
LGRW feel a 3-2 OT loss coming up
