2018-2019 Regular Season Discussion: Part III

[FirstRowUpperDeck]

I would sit Rads and JK with no 82 game aspirations. Also, play every big guy 5 minutes or as little as practical.

 

[RefalancheStillLose]

I know this game doesn't matter but jeez why not give Val a chance for his first...that 4th line is a defensive disaster also yikes

We need the worst possible roster iced, so that we lose in regulation.
So we can draw the flames

 

[Magic Mittens]

May as well let Honka get a game

 

[serp]

I don't really want in the Pacific lane . The games are so late and Vegas is in it who have our numbers.

I guess that's why Benn, Zuccarello and Bish won't play, we can lose the last two

Calgary has more points, but I see Winnipeg and Nashville as tougher opponents.

You will be rewarded with early starts in the last two rounds!

Jennings might be out of reach, unless we somehow muster a shutout in one of the last two games.

They have to get by SJ first.

With how horrible the Sharks goaltending is i don't think thats going to be a problem . I don't see the Sharks beating anyone with what they have in net .

The defense has been pretty bad too giving up way too many grade A chances that their goalies are incapeable of bailing them out from.

Sharks are a worse version of the 15/16 Stars.

 

[Smelling Salt]

So it turns out Cogs was a healthy scratch last night.

Dallas hasn't been good to him - first time he missed games due to injury and first time healthy scratched.

 

[serp]

Meh a dumb back to back with travel to end the season when the team has clinched , i don't know if a guy who was dinged up last game should play in both those games.

Eh, I suspect there's no way he would've been scratched had he not been injured.

Outside of his effort, he's been rather underwhelming.

 

[serp]

Not unexpected . Dowling might stay up as a spare Center i think since he needs waivers albeit i doubt anyone picks him up especially not now.

 

[Troy McClure]

Thanks to Jim Nill I don't even remember what the roster rules are for the playoffs .

I think they're the same compared to after the deadline outside of that if the AHL is eliminated you can pretty much load up your roster with players from your farm team if you want to. I know in the 2016 playoffs the team had 10+ scratched in round two for the homegames.

I also think the team is still bound by just 4 regular call ups but i'm not sure about that. I did read something about this a couple of days ago when the Leafs called up their third goalie but since i just skimmed it because well its the Leafs i already forgot.

If think we could get past Calgary but I wouldn’t want to play Vegas.

I’d rather stay in our division.

 

[Zrhutch]

Vegas is the only team in the west that scares me at this point.

 

[BigG44]

I think this lineup is probably indicative of Game 1's lineup.



Zuccarello takes Pitlick's spot. Pitlick takes Spezza's spot. Lovejoy takes Oleskiak's spot.

 

[serp]

I mean if we're completely accurate Fedun takes Oleksiaks spot and Lovejoy Feduns ^^

 

[Troy McClure]

Zuccarello is “on track”... yeah, I’m sticking with the injury conspiracy.

 

[Satan]

f***ing lol

 

[serp]

As long as Zuccarello plays in game 1 i don't give a flying f*** why he isn't playing right now.

 

[Satan]

i honestly hope he misses game 1 because everyone knows game 1 isnt that important anyway

 

[Satan]

stay rested for game 7 matt! get well soon
