I think I said wow three times when looking at these 3rd lines...

 

[seventieslord]

well, except Jungosi still hasn't switched Crawford and Metz.

Crawford was LW/C. Metz could play anywhere. So swapping the two will solve the problem of having one guy out of position.

 

[Nalyd Psycho]

True.

But when Jerry Toppazzini is the worst checking liner in a series...

WOW!

 

[seventieslord]

Personally, I think Bob Gainey is the worst checking liner of the series.













kidding!

 

[TheDevilMadeMe]

I like Beteguese's lineup better, but is Harry Sinden the guy to get the matchups he wants, especially on the road?

Votes for the division finals in the ATD are due by 11:59 P.M. EST on Sunday, December 6. All votes are to be sent to me.

 

[Jungosi]

Geez I'd have really liked to discuss more but after a hangover of epic proportions and more partying the day after I am kind of drained. I'll try to get something done over the course of the day though.

 

[God Bless Canada]

Tidewater wins the best-of-seven series in seven games.

Three stars:
Wayne Gretzky
Chris Chelios
Jaromir Jagr

A shame that one of those teams was eliminated. That should have been the Conference Finals.
