[ShootIt]

Wow.

No excuses for Bjugstad now not to put points up now.

HBJ
Vanek Trocheck Marchessault
Jokinen Bjugstad Smith
MacKenzie Sgarabossa Sceviour

Apparently.

Good.

Second line should give us some much needed scoring, and that third line is the same as in last year's playoffs, so who knows - maybe they'll surprise.

I'm still waiting for them to send Malgin down, but this should be a step in the right direction.

 

[Gentle Man]

^I dont like the idea of sticking two struggling players on the same line.

Still would prefer Vanek to the top

but oh well. Jagr is hands-off I guess.

 

[Chaos2k7]

I said they should have done this when they acquired Vanek.

But he did look like he had some chemistry with Nick. We'll see.

 

[Benched]

Really like Vanek with Trocheck. With Tros shot and Vanek screening and with Vanek's feed passes, Tro should put up even more points.

Should've been done when they got Vanek

 

[Benched]

Henrik starting tonight. Should get Raanta tomorrow.

 

[ShootIt]

So we are getting shutout.

 

[Android 16]

Score a goal or 2 and make it seem like we're in a playoff race.

 

[Jean Luc Discard]

Score a goal or 2 and make it seem like we're in a playoff race.

Have to score more than two because I don't think that the team will respond to Rowe in a positive manner i.e. good effort on the 1st period, total collapse on the 2nd and going through the motions on the 3rd.

 

[Ryuji Yamazaki]

Finally new line combinations.

 

[Prominence Problem]

I like that 2nd line.

TV needs a pace setting C like Tro. Marchy's feisty attitude should only help too.

The couple games we've had the pleasure of witnessing TV in a Panthers uni, he's looked ready to pop off. I'm quite impressed.

 

[GrumpyKelly]

Henrik starting tonight. Should get Raanta tomorrow.

Raanta in net for the Rangers atm.

 

[batting1k]

Kampfer boarded by Dumont...went head first into the boards.

Maybe, maybe not...

Something like this you had in mind....?

Huberdeau - Barkov - Vanek
Marchessault - Trocheck - Smith
Jokinen - Bjugstad - Jagr
Mack - Sgarbossa - Sceviour

 

[FlaPanthers11]

Rangers win 1-0 in OT after a long physical battle. Lundqvist tomorrow.

 

[barkovcanfinnish]

We can't afford to job this game in regulation.

We absolutely need at least one point, 2 points will get us back to striking distance. We can't afford to fall behind at this point in the season.

 

[Ghoste]

Hopefully this is the wakeup call we need.

[Android 16]

We're honoring Olli. While I liked and respected Olli, he was here when this place was run like disney world. It's unfortunate that his best years were a total waste.

Hopefully we don't get bad juju from the gesture.

 

[Brokin]

Maybe, maybe not...

Something like this you had in mind....?

Huberdeau - Barkov - Vanek
Marchessault - Trocheck - Smith
Jokinen - Bjugstad - Jagr
Mack - Sgarbossa - Sceviour

I think that's T.Rex before he took the job in Russia.

 

[FrolikFan67]

Vanek Trocheck Marchessault
Jokinen Bjugstad Smith

Apparently.

about time.

 

[PanthersHockey1]

It would be very Panthers to win these next two games against NYR and Wild just to get everyone excited again only to fail right after.

Expecting regulation wins.
