I was pretty happy with Mitchell's last game. I think he's finding some really good chemistry with Talbot. McGinn on the other hand, didn't fit in well.

McGinn is not fitting in anywhere in the lineup. I like the kid but, man, his inconsistency is maddening.

Ideally McLeod - Mitchell - Talbot would be the Avs 4th line.
Problem is Bords and Cliche have been solid and deserve time too
ROR - Dutch - ????
Landy - Staz - Tangs
McGinn - MacK - PAP
Finding a good scoring finisher to fit in that top RW spot (does not have to be a star, just a good fit, like Dupuis is for Crosby) would give us that loaded forward core we want when/if the team is healthy.
I dunno if this has been mentioned but Cliche is not a player I like. He's a bit like Talbot in terms of not doing much that's noticeable. He doesn't hurt the team much but he doesn't really help either.
I'm not sure why Malone was sent down tbh because though he's maybe not as safe as Cliche, he's close and he makes much more happen offensively.
Also regarding the PP, it's quite one-dimensional when it gets set up and it probably has to do with the lack of point presence or net presense. We just don't have the personnel tbh to cause chaos in front of the net, maybe Landeskog or McGinn can kinda grow into that role and we're lacking in terms of proper PP point players. That's not an excuse for the PP looking so bad in general but even if it was playing to its ability, I don't think that ability is very high with our lineup.
I didn't watch this game...first one so far this season I've missed completely. It's available on GCL...is it even worth it or should I find something else to do? Like watch Holiday Inn or Burl Ives specials on DVD?
Cliche is okay as a depth player. but I wouldn't want him full time in the line up.
Malone isn't any better.
And the PP is terrible, the still can't get into the zone to set up. And when they do they just pass the puck around. No one shoots at all.
