I think thomas may want to stay. But wouldn't be surprised if he leaves.

So lets just give up and not try to get better.

Who said that? There is no cohesion with any of the lines... No crisp passes. It's the same garbage lineups every night. Maybe its time to put someone else with Boyes and Bjugs.. Lets see something new and fresh.

I'm crossing my fingers that he likes it there and stays.

So you suggest changing the only line that consistently works? I agree with shaking up every line except that one. The fact that Flash keeps getting top six minutes is ludicrous. Upshall has been playing decently but doesn't always warrant top 6 minutes either. The fact that Hubs hasn't been benched yet is terrible. The fact that Jovo has a job is ridiculous.

So a lot of stuff could use change which PH refuses to do. In that regard I would agree with you. I don't agree with changing the first line though at all. And of all people you take Bergy off? He's the best skater on that line and has played worthy of top line minutes all year.

Agree change is needed and not coming. But not on that line. Its the only thing consistent about this team.

Ya I doubt he wants to be backup to Roberto for the last year or two of his career. Where you think he may go RR?

I think a number of teams could be interested in adding him. Could see Pittsburgh, Chicago, Washington, and Tampa in the East come to mind.

Winny just got mauled behind the net. No call.

 

[PSLguy]

Goldie keeps mentioning near misses by the Panthers. That is the difference between a winning, playoff, team and a draft lottery team - converting goals on those opportunities instead of near misses.

Post #3.

And post #4.

What horrid luck.

 

[Howboutthempanthers]

Post post post. This is crazy.

Bruins constantly grab and hold...

 

[Benched]

Go away Chara.

Oh our defense sucks.

You're right they are consistent tonight... Missing shots hitting the post and turning the puck over with horrible spacing.

 

[RainingRats]

My only concern with Bjugstad is that he's a bit soft for a huge guy. I'd like to see him play a little meaner.

 

[Drugs Delaney]

I hope DT brings us somebody who can put the puck in the net.

Wouldn't Obama have him followed every night he's in Washington? I could see Chicago take a chance on him just in case. I'd be very surprised if he chooses to stay and if he does, I'd be down with these two for the next year or two.

I forgot we were basing everything off of this game. Sorry.

Also funny you mention posts. It could easily be 3-3 right now with two of the goals coming from Brad and Bergy. We are just having horrible luck.

I hear you. There aren't enough big,skilled, mean guys.

 

[Howboutthempanthers]

I know I've said this before but it bears repeating, Jovo is horrible.

 

[Benched]

Good pressure and shift by that Pirri and Huby line. Good to see that.

 

[Panthersfan1989]

You're missing the point. If every line has been awful tonight and nothing is going WHY won't PH switch pieces around even its for one shift??

 

[FinlandPanther]

He just isn't mean, but he surely isn't soft. He's like a big Joe he uses his body to compliment his skills, not for aggression.

Every line hasn't been awful. Pirri line just had a great shift and the B line is getting good chances. Our defense thanks to Jovo, Campbell, and Olsen has just dug us in a 3-0 hole. That and we can't catch a bounce or a break. This game could easily be 3-3 with better luck.

He's out tank commander.
