Stan Fischler has had some of the worst takes in hockey for the last 30 years, he has been wrong much more than right.And to think Jason Robertson is a better player than McDavid. Or so we were told by Stan Fischler.

Needs to make an appearance here. 7 games in now. He can’t have a 2017 like playoffs here.

Hope he proves us wrong and gets hot soon. He's been pretty awful by his standards.

Fischler is a headline whore. He’ll just spit out a ridiculous over-the-top take so he gets a headline and doesn’t give a damn that he’ll have to walk it back or be reminded of it later.

Nuge extra silent these days. 1 assist at ES. Bjugstad's backhand floater from the boards on a rush that went in to make the game 6-2.
Think Seattle would do a Nuge/Eberle swap for fun? Eberle is driving play for his line all night 5v5 for Seattle. Nuge seems to just be hiding until it's PP time.

That's the only time I noticed him. He took a Eberle dust off wrist shot that got blocked and he had some giveaways on the PP
Never noticed him otherwise. Funny thing is, he is not even the most shy when it comes to being physical to separate guys from pucks and win board battles. Ryan Mcleod takes that one. I like him, but he has to be the softest player on this team.
Something was off last night. A couple of times he’d skate into the offensive zone with the puck and then just stop and watch as the opponent took it away. Not even trying.

He's not trying to hold the puck at all to make plays or looking for his shot. Pretty sure that he's hurt but then I'm thinking so are McDavid, Hyman and Kane. Bad time to have so many guys not close to 100% seemingly.

Yep looks like he has zero desire to go into the dirty areas or put in any effort to get the puck. Only 1 point not on the PP. Not acceptable production.

I woundn't be surprised he's indeed playing hurt. The drop in play is just too glaring, can't be just regular season vs. playoffs.
He was fine early in the LA series, ripped one off the post and got robbed a couple of times by Korpisalo, fell off more in 5 and 6 and was invisible last night. They need to put him and 97 back together.

I would put McLeod, who has playing senses, with two fiesty guys like Kostin and Kane. Kane McLeod Kostin would look interresting. McLeod can dish.
Leon McDavid Bjugstad
Hyman Nuge Lavoie
Kane McLeod Kostin
And a 4th line of Fogele Ryan Yamamoto could be something.
Try out Lavoie! Pls!

Beast has been a bit too silent lately... Need him to step it up (along with most of the team).
