I wouldn’t mind seeing Sanheim on the PP, but with 3 points in 14 games since Gordon took over, despite playing on the first pair & being 2nd on the team in minutes, he hasn’t exactly blown the door down offensively.

Who knows lol. No one can at this point.

When the 2PP actually had OZ time, he was the one making all the chances happen. 3 points isn’t a lot, but isn’t that the best coming from our Dmen the past 14 games? I may be wrong on that.

Don't bring context into things, GB likes to bash Sanheim any chance he gets. When Sanheim was our best player in the loss to the Blues, he was the only guy who criticized in the PGT.

 

[CapnZin]

Not only back in, but in the top 4.

This dude must practice ****ing witchcraft or make offerings to Jobu.

When Amac plays, he usually gets 2nd or 3rd best TOI... only recently has he been used as the #4 in TOI when he plays.

I’m just one of the rare posters willing to speak both good & bad about Sanheim. You had people raving about his play against the Blues when he was a turnover machine. I said I give him credit for being one of the few who played with effort that game, but the best you could say was he had & up and down game. A “good” game is complete hyperbole. But you get a lot of hyperbole with Sanheim. And, of course, he’s continued to struggle with turnovers.

Pointing out that 3 points in 14 games isn’t blowing the door down offensively isn’t “bashing” him; it’s simply the truth. And I’m not leaving out context — I mentioned he’s 2nd in minutes & mostly been on the top pair during that span.

Sanheim has 27 giveaways in 45 games. He's cut his turnovers down quite a bit from last year. For comparison, Gudas has 26 in 43 games and handles the puck much less often. Ghost has 28 and Provorov has 42. Erik Karlsson has 49.

My post was 100% correct.

The PP has looked better lately but the issue has been Simmonds. He cant finish around the net anymore so a lot of good chances havent been going in. Taking Ghost off is the worst thing they can do.

Keep G and Ghost in their spots. Replace Coots with JVR. JVR can play the hartnell role...he can be a shot in the slot option or a 2nd net front presence.

Put Patrick in Simmonds spot. He showed last year he score around the net but hes also a nifty play maker. He could run it from behind the net if needed giving the PP a different look.

TK should be on the right point. He can score and make plays from there.

He has proprietary giveaway data in his head.

The two things in my world that I need most to be ended:

1. The government shutdown
2. Phil Myers' time in the AHL

 

[Ghosts Beer]

The “official” giveaway stats are a joke & nowhere near accurate.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Is anyone else ready to break into the "Hockey Song" by Warren Zevon after seeing this...

I think Chris McAllister might have been the real life buddy the goon. That guy was terrible even for goon standards.

 

[FlyTimmo]

The “official” giveaway stats are a joke & nowhere near accurate.

But if Ghost had the most in the NHL, you'd say they are valid.

 

[Tripod]

The “official” giveaway stats are a joke & nowhere near accurate.

Because if it was, Ghost would be #1, Provy #2, and Sanheim #3 in the league, right?

SEPTA: We're getting there. (but youre not. unless you have exact change)

Drew Doughty leads the league in giveaways, fwiw....lol.

I have no issue with someone saying the stats are not accurate with giveaways/takeaways....and hits, blocks, etc for that matter.

The issue comes from someone CLAIMING that Ghost and Provy would 100% be #1 and #1 if they were kept properly. Truth is, no one has any idea of the ranking.

This one has the potential to be both the biggest one and the most boring one since the New Jersey one.

Both big and boring. Titanic. Factoid: the ship to be built after Titanic was to be named Gigantic but White Star changed it to Britannica after the disastrous sinking.

So this game is beyond Titanic...it’s gigantic!

Sounds like the pets are both back, Torgo and Farmer,,,
