Ok. He was not as good as in he was in preseason but still pretty good. Boucher started him with Duchene and Dzingel and moved him back with Stone and Smith.Missed the game how was Tkachuk?
I've always wondered this, but does coaching staff sit down with players and show them their weaknesses. For example, would Sen's coaches pull Borowiecki aside and show him some of the mistakes he's making?
Agreed regarding long term. It's a toss up. At the same time, he's one of our few good players left.I'm not sure Dzingel is someone who has proven to be someone you want to commit long term to.
The day that Ryan and Boro are no longer on this team is the day we all truly realize what the definition of the expression addition by subtraction is.
Should have picked up McElhinney as insurance.
Also, bring up Wolanin and reduce Boro and Ceci's toi, or outright sit one of the two out.
most teams get beat by them.. we got slaughteredWe got beat by that Marchand-Bergeron-Pastrnak line
well I commit to him long term.. at the right price.Agreed regarding long term. It's a toss up. At the same time, he's one of our few good players left.
and we dominated the second.. hit a couple posts, and a missed a few wide open nets. it was good game.. we needed ceci and boro to play just Half Decently and condon to come up with a few average saves and we probably get a point.A score to be expected that, I think.
Not even mad.
Including the making of the propaganda video?If not, then EM sits with Boro and tells him, more or less, that he's not going to be around much longer since there will be some 15 new guys on the roster between now and next season.
Otherwise, I believe they do.
And by the coach constantly putting he wrong players out against them. Boro and wideman are playing way too much against players that good. Was just insane to watch boro lose his check with that back breaking goal then was out the next shift. I actually like what boro brings but only when he is used as a third pairing d man.We got beat by that Marchand-Bergeron-Pastrnak line
Agreed, Condon has no confidence. Could not track a puck, poor anticipation. What a bad signing.and we dominated the second.. hit a couple posts, and a missed a few wide open nets. it was good game.. we needed ceci and boro to play just Half Decently and condon to come up with a few average saves and we probably get a point.
Tkachuk-Duchene-Stone would be close to the best we could do against them.We literally have no answer against the Bergeron line. We will constantly have a problem when playing them this season, we just don't have anybody that can match up with them. I think that will be a problem for many teams this season, that line is by far the best of the NHL.
We actually played a very good game, if Condon is a bit better, I think we bring that game to OT at least. We controlled large parts of that game, when the Bergeron line wasn't on the ice.
I like Ceci and feel people pick on him way too much, but that game will definitely not help his critics, not a good one for him for sure. I have a feeling though, he's going to look like this every time we play Boston this year.
Because there is nobody better aside from chabot on the team.
That's hardly cecis fault
Missed the game how was Tkachuk?
Thats the root of argument, Ceci has done such a horrendous job that putting anyone else in there would be worth the risk of trying.
He's not a top pairing guy, he's not a shut down guy. I say give him sheltered 3rd pairing minutes and see how he does. Because if he's good but just has tough deployment, doing well in easy minutes should be a lay-up. Right?
Its time to open the mystery box and give the other guys a chance for bigger roles. Because "this might end bad" is better than "this is gonna end bad"
