We were all hyping up Wood last year lol, and rightly so he had a nice year as a 3-4 wing, or at least he played well till his suspension then fell off a bit. This year he's gone down an elevator shaft but just from seeing the highlight package that looked more like Wood early last year than anything we've seen since.
I think the talk of Wood's poor play this year is way overstated.We were all hyping up Wood last year lol, and rightly so he had a nice year as a 3-4 wing, or at least he played well till his suspension then fell off a bit.

Idk why but the team seems to play better when halls not in the lineup... its like they say we need to step it up. Both goalies also step it up.
Zacha has a very high ceiling. Much higher then what Nordstrom is. The question is, will Zacha reach his ceiling, or better yet, how close to his ceiling does he get.Is PZ's ceiling Joakim Nordstrom?
I think Johnson will be good for us... obviously he's got a long ways to go, but does have the basics and a decent skillset. I like his style of play as hes more of a hybrid goalie.

See my edit above.Based on production PZ needs to step it up.
Granted, he should have at least 10 assists this season but he plays with linemates that cant finish
The AHL goalie?
I doubt it, he's too small
I think it’s less about specifically tomorrow’s game, because either way doesn’t matter. But I just hope we don’t overuse Blackwood even if he keeps up with these strong performances. I prefer a 1a 1b set up for now, and we’re not fighting for a playoff spot with the roster we have right now.I'm not going to start a poll but who do you want to start tomorrow afternoons game?
Kink
Or
Big Mac

He actually tracked that puck really well too. Almost had it with the glove.If that last fluke goal didn't go in, Big Mac would have a 1.80 GAA
he’s 6’1...
I don't think the roster is the issue per se, it's the start to the season we had.I think it’s less about specifically tomorrow’s game, because either way doesn’t matter.

Time and time again we see what Coleman is capable of and even more so with open ice.
Why he is rarely used in a 3v3 situation when in OT boggles thy mind.
6'1" is pretty small for goalies nowadays. Not impossible, but you better be putting up some big #'s along the way, which Johnson has not been doing.Maybe on skates and the top of his mask
He's a small netminder
That specifically? Maybe not that often, but using his speed to get to spots, either with or without the puck, offensively or defensively, I would think would be beneficial in OT.With open ice? He outraced the defenseman to a loose puck. How often does this sort of thing happen in 3v3 OT?
