Digging the hell out of that! If McCann is hurt a little, a good option is Shane Wright! Let’s go!

@Silkytentacles, @The Marquis. Should we change this thread to the GDT? Or is there anyone who is going to create one today?

Is this line up speculation or is it based on something. I know Canner was game time decision.

It says projected up there. Appears to be based on the fact that McCann is out.

It was the projected lines on the nhl website

Why is Nick Olczyk talking Goaltending awards in the same breathe as Jones,Daccord,Grubauer. They are a long way from that. I get his excitement

 

[AarG]

Let's go Kraken! The key to victory is to not give Kaprizov shooting chances and use our forward depth to outwork them. Easier said than done, eh?

Hey I love Wright and he is gonna be a Star in this league the NHL. But going from 18 year old Junior Star to the NHL is huge,few players can make that transition. Having said that I hope Shaner scores tonight

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Nick a tonne times better than that Englishman even if he never played in the NHL like Eddie Olczyk

 

[AarG]

Nice hustle right from the start!

 

[kihei]

Well, look who was on the power play.

Well, look who was on the power play.

Was feeding my dogs. Came back at the last moment and saw him whiff on a shot ...

 

[gstommylee]

Shane on PP2 unit

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Shaner on the PP,why? That sends the wrong message. I get it they want him to have a PP chance to score but...

Wright was on for an offensive zone faceoff, then Kraken lost the puck momentarily and Wright went to the bench but Tanev and Gourde managed to get the puck back and all the way to Fleury who closed it. Gourde and Tanev stayed on and Wright jumped right back on for another offensive zone faceoff.
The faceoffs were back-to-back.

That tells to me that Wright is somewhat trusted in the offensive zone but definitely not trusted in the defensive zone (?).

 

[Fistfullofbeer]

Not much really going on. LOL.

 

[Cisse]

I would like to see Sprong get a chance with Beniers for a few games. I think there are more goals in Sprong that has been shown so far. He has a good shot and there is a potential in him. He needs a chance in a line that can create more chances. I think he could reach 25-30 goals in a season if things click the right way.

Not many kids his age are responsible enough defensively.

Our third line centre got all of 3.39 to show his stuff that period.

That’s an ok amount. Not ideal, but ok.

 

[kihei]

That’s an ok amount. Not ideal, but ok.

About two minutes less than his ostensible linemates. Not a confidence builder.

 

[The Marquis]

The other centers deserve more

 

[Cisse]

Don't worry guys. We can give Wright more ice time after we lead 5-0.

 

[Fistfullofbeer]

There you go. Throw pucks at net.
