True,can sleep in his own bed and have the boys over for dinnerYes he would.
No inside info. Just a guess he will be there in Buffalo. Not a long drive fir him and his family.

FWIW the line combination of debrusk-krejci-Pastrnak had the following:
Goals for %: 71.4%
Shot attempt %: 54.2%
Goalie save percentage: .966
Though it was a relatively small sample size, they performed very well together in their short time together... Obviously that third line will be up for debate, but the top two really shouldn’t be.
Didn’t Krejci work well when he took over for an injured to Bergeron and centered Marchand & Pastrnak.
Pastrnak & DeBrusk seem to have great chemistry at least off the ice. I’ve seen them at functions together and in warmups they have a bromance going. Doesn’t mean it clicks on ice but I’m guessing they’d like it to.
What about flipping Marchand and DeBrusk or is that too radical.
Coyle would actually interest me with DeBrusk but then you are really messing things up
The solution would be for Senyshyn become a 22 year old Corey Perry
He was Wheeler-ish in Providence. He was a 2:1 assist to goal guyKrejci worked great with Marchand and Pasta, but I think it's too radical to think they'll swap Bergeron and Krejci or even Marchand and DeBrusk. They're locked into Marchand-Bergeron.
Fwiw, DeBrusk-Krejci-Coyle also had a higher corsi than DeBrusk-Krejci-Pasta, but again, I don't know how much stock I put in those numbers.
There is a chance DeBrusk will pass more in his 3rd season. He passed a lot as a rookie... 27 assists in first year, 15 goals. 27 goals in his second year, 15 assists. So the numbers flip flopped. Maybe he'll find that 30/30 balance this year.
Krejci as good a playmaker and thinker as anyone in the league, is what happened. Same as what will happen with Senyshyn if they so choose, I imagine. As long as DK exists and can still somewhat skate he'll make any kid they pick look pretty good. Donny's as lucky as he is smart. Maybe he is just one of those and I'm not perceptive enough to see which yet thoughHe was Wheeler-ish in Providence. He was a 2:1 assist to goal guy
Not sure what happened
His prorated season last year was 33 goals but I’d rather see balance and 30:30 would be better than 35:20 to me
He's self richeous asf for a guy that's consistently wrongHahahahhaha. Pronman today is trying to walk back his zero-ranking of Lauzon:
I’ve rated a lot of players during the farm ranking series and received a lot of … let’s call it feedback on various players evaluations. Most of the time I don’t budge because the arguments don’t sway me. But one player I think I might have underrated was Bruins defenseman Jeremy Lauzon. I maintain what I said in that his offensive upside is limited, but with his skating, compete level and how he looked up with the Bruins, he should have been higher on their team ranking.
I give him credit for admitting his oversight.He's self richeous asf for a guy that's consistently wrong
Nice little clip Pronman posted in that article of Lauko dangling Axel Andersson

I'm really starting to wonder about Axel's one-on-one defending. Last month he got dangled hard twice by Raphael Lavoie. If was the biggest fan of the guy but his confidence is shot right now and I don't know how playing in the AHL is going to help that.
This is a criticism of his work as a whole, and him stylistically, rather than just a knock on him for undervaluing this particular player.I give him credit for admitting his oversight.
As far as I know, McFaul will be attending.
My tweet was about an undrafted right shot d-man that a lot of hockey minds were shocked he wasn't drafted. Attended development camp of another team, so they'd probably have the inside edge.

maybe he thought it was zach lauzon.
everyone is entitled to their opinion, but i have a hard time buying into pronman being this uber prospect warrior
based on what i know and have heard about him in the past. good for him for fooling enough people i guess. there's
at least 1 guy who covers the bruins who has many fooled as well
He could very well be confusing them. He keeps saying Jeremy has no offense and his numbers in the AHL have been low but he was a PPG guy his last two years of junior. Zach, meanwhile, was never a scorer.
Axel made the mistake of trying to stick check the puck instead of playing the body. Not to worry, it happens to a great deal of young defenceman. It was a classic move by Lauko, who had his head down on the play, he could have gotten lined up by the weakside dee.Nice little clip Pronman posted in that article of Lauko dangling Axel Andersson

In regards to your first paragraph I was waiting for Butch to make the switch in the finals but never happenedKrejci worked great with Marchand and Pasta, but I think it's too radical to think they'll swap Bergeron and Krejci or even Marchand and DeBrusk. They're locked into Marchand-Bergeron.
Fwiw, DeBrusk-Krejci-Coyle also had a higher corsi than DeBrusk-Krejci-Pasta, but again, I don't know how much stock I put in those numbers.

Constantinou will definitely be with the Kings for their tournament from Sept 7-10
Told now McFaul will not be in attendance.
