Stars lost too, if only Flyers would beat the Sens it would have been a perfect night
Yeah, the captain or one of the leaders from Flyer players was almost in tears after that loss.

Will soon be? Already is and has been since making the playoffs last year imoColorado Avalanche will soon be contenders.
Slow down! I wouldn't call us serious contenders. Could we have a Cinderella run? MaybeWill soon be? Already is and has been since making the playoffs last year imo
It's weird EJ does not look physically off, but maybe being a touch slower has made the game faster for him, and forces him to make quicker decisions that exposes his hockey IQ a bit.
Hopefully it's just a funk, and not the anti EJ crowd being right this ****ing early lol.
Edit...
I do have another theory though. EJ has been the OFD (yeah I know not great at it but) for a long time on his pairing. Hes not used to playing with someone like Girard who is all over the place, and inexperienced. He might be struggling getting used to playing his role. If that is all it his he should figure it out as the year goes on, and Girard gets more experience.
He seems indecisive and gets caught way more than he used to.I agree. EJ is used to rushing the puck up the ice and using his physical abilities to dominate a game. He isn't the "steady as you go" defensive D that is always in the "conservative" position. I'm not gonna complain though, he's still a good player.
I disagree, last year you could consider us a Cinderella but after making the playoffs I think that most people consider us a very good to great team. Just my opinion, also I think I'm going the exact speed I should be going if any thing I will speed upSlow down! I wouldn't call us serious contenders. Could we have a Cinderella run? Maybe

I'm just hesitant to call us a contender. Add Makar / Kaut / Timmins / OTT 1st and we will be much closer.I disagree, last year you could consider us a Cinderella but after making the playoffs I think that most people consider us a very good to great team.

7-0-1 in our last 8 games and Jost has 7 pts in that stretch since coming back.

Tonight is drinks at my place... I have a good feeling about this lads and ladies.
Told yall! So worried, just need to put a drink in my hand and a girl around my shoulder and we'll win games.
Yeah we're not there yet imo. This start/this win are exciting, but they are short a few pieces for a serious cup run. That being said, our window could open as soon as next season.Will soon be? Already is and has been since making the playoffs last year imo
It'll be the "Welivetogether" line (if you get this reference then you should be ashamed of yourself)Bednar needs to make this happen now
Jost - Kerfoot - JTC
Give these guys some real 5 v 5 time together and I bet we see some real chemistry
As far as im concerned there is no "2nd unit" I honestly cant recall the last time we had two PP units that were producing at this rate.Jost going to the second PP unit might be a demotion on paper but it's also a much better spot for him. He actually has the puck on his stick now and can make plays. This was supposed to be one of his strengths coming in but we've never really seen it yet because of injuries and his role.
Ghetto is playing limited 4th line minutes so I don't blame him for a lack of production but if this is the only role available for him then there's probably not a need for him to be in the lineup. I like him but he's not going to help you much in other areas and he no longer has his spot on the second PP unit either.
