Man I hope Suzuki gets out of his funk. It's gone on long enough now. I'm not neccessarily referring to points per se but please show more energy. It's all well and nice to say he's fatigued and he's targeted and he's up against top opposition, But at the same time we have a 20 year old Dman who is also up against the best playing roughly 25 minutes a night and with more PK responsibilities, who is not showing the same levels of fatigue. C'mon Nick get it together man.

No more ****** OT please. Win or lose i don't care but do it in regulation. There's only 3 teams with less regulation wins that us (Columbus, Chicago, Anaheim). It's not good. We are still unable to win in regulation playing 5v5 hockey (which you need to do in playoffs) but we draft 10th only. Win the game awesome but do it in regulation or else just lose.

Best movie ever :sarcasm:

Our last convincing win was probably against Vancouver on Nov 9. Since then all our wins are either a steal by our goalie or an OT/SO win. Pretty annoying indeed.

Xhekaj and Benn tonight. Almost guaranteed
I like that Xhekaj brings that toughness, love even, but it’s a bit sad that you can predict he’ll fight like that.

Not only he could seriously hurt himself, but he’s actually a good nhl player, I want him on the ice.

His career to date has kind of been like that. Maybe that's just what he is. A really good player who is prone to invisible stretches during the year, but a total gamer on the bigger stages.

If that's the case, it's still not the worst thing.

I think he will fight because someone on our team will have liberties taken with them. Benn is good at that.

Not sure if I'm around tonight. I somehow have to make my way home from work through this snowstorm.

I expect a loss. Dallas is a solid team with good goaltending & depth on offense.

Apparently, Dach is moving back to center for this one, but no indication of lines yet.

Merry Christmas, everyone!

Curious what the lines will be if Dach is back at center. Seems like a strange decision to me as Suzuki, Caufield, and Dach all play their best hockey when they are together. Also, I thought Drouin was doing quite well at center.

Sorry, Drouin was awful at C last game.................he had no idea where to be and his line got dominated and pinned in their zone.

Slaf and Anderson always do though. Do we know if they’re just swapping spots (Dach and Drouin)? I would def try Richard on the 1st
