What happened to Da Costa, is he playing bad?
That top line misses Stone big time as Hoff and Da Costa now on overload and pressing..Pager being back will see the lines mixed up once again but helps immensely.."Lehner":
Top line of Da Costa, & Hoffman has turned to manure the past few games...
The PP has become crap 0 for like 13 or something......
For some reason Da Costa, & Hoffman seemed to have lost a step the past few weeks. Perhaps they are just tired for some reason, as other teams try to punish both of them.
Result is that the puck is staying in the Binghamton defensive zone a lot longer. The D down here is not that good to be truthful as Binghamton is has 2 ECHL D-men Blood & New. The result is a lot more pucks are going in their net now................
I have 2nd Quarter Grades due out tomorrow and will post up..I know nothing about cole Schneider but he seems to be putting up some decent numbers this year.
Any insight on this guy?

IMO Schneider has the potential to replace Conacher at LW at some point, he seems to have the size & offensive package. I just don't know if his defensive game is where it needs to be & whether he is NHL ready this yr or it will take another yr. I like what I see from him every time I watch him though. Schneider - Zibanejad - Robinson would be an interesting 3rd line some day.

Agree. Don't see Schneider playing top 6 anytime soon. Really want to see him in our bottom 6 though. Greening has been playing well lately also.If he's replacing anyone it's Greening on the bottom six. This guy will not be playing top 6 minutes in the NHL to start. IF he even is called up.
Sorry to disappoint you but it looks like Conacher is here to stay.

Greening? It's funny how many people on here are out of touch with the coach who continues to play Greening in almost every situation. He gets plenty of PK time, he gets plenty of 5 on 5 time, he is versatile, plays him with Spezza or with his favourite crash line with Smith & Neil. He is among the top hitters in the NHL, he can fight, he can play centre & take faceoffs when needed. Greening IMO is the guy who is here to stay. Conacher was brought in to score & while he is a spark plug he isn't really scoring.
It's clear Hoffman and Da Costa miss Stone. How about we reunite them... in Ottawa?
