Did you tease him for skating like a slow peice of shit?

Well, if Samuel comes up and lays an egg or one of the other youngsters regresses, you will be glad to have good ol’ #23 back in the lineup. Gudas didn’t do him any favors the back half of the season.

I'd tease someone for being inexperienced too knowing that the moron coach would be playing me more simply because i'm a vet and no matter how good you play you'll never get the same ice time.

Reading Konecny talking about playing safe, like it's straight from Hakstol's mouth, makes me feel dead inside.

Gudas was actually good the first half playing with Sanheim. After paired with Manning he was disaster. Wonder why.

Sanheim also lifted MacDonald, too.

 

[Magua]

Sanheim also lifted MacDonald, too.

MacDonald also has years of being one of the worst d-men in the league. Gudas has years of carrying lesser partners to good metrics without a Sanheim-type partner. But it certainly helps to have one.

 

[baudib1]

I strongly suspect Manning will play 50+ games somewhere next year, and will play another 150 in his career.

He's overqualified to be a #7, and can be a totally fine #6 on a team with stud D like Tampa or Nashville.

When you put him in a role where he has to be the puck-moving guy AND the physical guy because Radko has to redefine his entire game AND play shutdown minutes, well you're asking for trouble.

It was a small sample size, but Manning’s numbers were good with Sanheim as well. Definitely a common theme here. The future is hopefully very bright for TS.

 

[baudib1]

Newsflash: Travis Sanheim is actually really good at hockey and makes everyone around him better.

 

[Harhis]

If only Hak realized having good puck mover paired with our garbage would hide some of their flaws. Maybe in 2021.

I dunno man, if he was a really good hockey player he would have played in Game Six.

 

[Rebels57]

I keep hearing "Manning would be okay as a #7 or a #6 on a good D"

The reality is that he is a zero in the ozone and less than zero in the dzone. If he is one of the 217 best defensemen on a planet with 7 Billion people, than Hockey is in worse shape than I thought.

Because with Sanheim they got the easiest matchups, with Manning he was playing tougher matchups which exposed their deficiencies.

 

[Flyotes]

Meltzer saying on Twitter that his read of the situation is that Manning expects not to be back.

 

[kudymen]

I dunno man, if he was a really good hockey player he would have played in Game Six.

The team had 98 points with Sanheim playing only in minority of the team's games!

 

[baudib1]

Listening to TK makes me really angry that Hakstol deprived us of the chance to see him play with G and Coots in this series. Goddamnit.

He was 32 in the league in pp/60 at 5x5. That's not a zero in the O-zone, that's pretty darn good.
Of course the "conservative" scheme seemed to help all our defensemen score, except for Hagg.

 

[Harhis]

Why is Hak putting them on situations they can't handle?

I'd say Manning is easily within the top 160 defensemen under contract in the NHL this past season.

How many teams are actually happy with their 6th defenseman? The Blackhawks won a Cup trotting out the corpse of Kimmo out there.

 

[kudymen]

Because he is a good coach who has no other options

*I generated this response in my random generator of Hak apologies

 

[baudib1]

Don't get me wrong, I don't want Manning back either.

 

[Foggy14]

Gudas didn’t do us any favors in game 6.

Fixed that for ya.

Kimmo was playing like 8 minutes a game. If Manning was used like that there wouldn't be that many complaining. But he played over 17 minutes a game. Thats the problem.
