As much as I wanted to see Price have the game yesterday to rebound, this may be a reason they're doing it. If they play Price straight out until the break, that's a long ass time for Allen to be off and then "schedule chaos" like you you said.
There are 17G in 29 days coming up, both goalies are going to get plenty of work - as will taxi squad players not used to date. This was a calculated move.
You sure you dont want Chiarot and Edmundson needlessly getting their hands and sticks in peoples faces?
Zebras will start slowly putting their whistles away as usual in another 10-15G
Agreed... I don't think Leafs had seen any real challenge so far. They are good. Are they playoffs good that's too be seen. Lucky for them they won't know until conference finals.
He'll be rusty. I hope his head is fully clear. I honestly don't believe in full recovery from a concussion in less than a month. Especially when you play a very physical sport. Sigh. Why won't they give Frolik a few games and keep Armia on a shelf for few more weeks?
Edmundson only has one minor penalty, he’s been disciplined.
Yeah, I don't get the ragging on Eddy... he's been steady. Petry and Edmunson are arguably Habs number 1 duo and look at Petry's game this year. Unreal. I am sure big part of it is being paired with a reliable partner.
Benny C has been a disaster so far this year. He needs to figure it out. Some games I wonder if he just got introduced to the NHL... others he looks pretty decent . Inconsistent at best.Edmundson only has one minor penalty, he’s been disciplined.
Chiarot and kulak on the other hand
If Price has a rough game Wednesday and Allen plays well on Thursday, I’d hope the team plays Allen on Saturday.
Needlessly, no. But there are situations when there is a need... and then I want them to go all out.
