GDT: Game # 4 | Canes @ Wings | 7:30 PM | FS-D

[Cyborg Yzerberg]

Just tuned in, seeing Larkin playing with the 4th line? After an ugly loss they'll probably send him down.

Just a line change, Larkin started with Abdelkader and Hank, but moved to play with Pookie and Jurco.

 

[korrowan]

Who would you sub Pulkkinen for if Helm isn't ready?

Anyone. Rather see Cleary and I hate the guy.

 

[sarcastro]

Probably because 55 and 25 played PP just before.

Nope, they're out there again. With Larkin, Jurco, and Pulks.

Looks like they've put Nyquist with Z and Abby. Not sure why.

 

[aar000n]

they cant even get into the offensive zone.

 

[Cyborg Yzerberg]

I know. The PP was horrible when Blash ran it and then Hiller had it in the top of the league.

You realize Blashill doesn't run the power play now, right? I mean, he runs it like Babcock ran it, but it's not his primary job now.

 

[WingedWheel1987]

Wings PP was garbage last season for the first 10ish games. I'm sure it will get back on track when Datsyuk returns.

Pavel Datsyuk helps.

Because the first line was ****. Blash changed the lines to get something going.

He's been one of the best Wings out there

 

[TheRatPoisoner]

thought they come ou flying.... not so much

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

He's been one of the best Wings out there

I disagree, has not been a particular strong game for Larkin.

 

[Pavels Dog]

Who would you sub Pulkkinen for if Helm isn't ready?

Andersson. Anyone.

 

[TheMule93]

I agree. Lots of turnovers, took a penalty

 

[Actual Thought*]

Yes I know that. Doesn't change that I regret losing Hiller and one of the best power plays in the game.

 

[GrafSk8r12]

I turned it on just in time to see Smith blow coverage on the Versteeg goal. The comments here also look pretty negative. Have there been any positives this game?

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

Q moved right down when he saw it was Larkin...

Some one not on our first line score a goal

 

[aar000n]

Get angry? Maybee?

 

[Pavels Dog]

Yes I know that. Doesn't change that I regret losing Hiller and one of the best power plays in the game.

In all fairness that PP was one of the worst in the league for like 10 games to start the season. It took some time to get it clicking. This could also get going.

 

[Yemack]

I'm really contemplating whether I should just turn it off now and save agony. And I've done that only once in my life

 

[WingedWheel1987]

It was Al Sobotka's birthday.

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

Have a feeling Larkin is going to be kind of chippy when we are not playing hard enough.

 

[Cyborg Yzerberg]

Yes I know that. Doesn't change that I regret losing Hiller and one of the best power plays in the game.

That's reasonable. I thought Hiller was a huge loss this summer.

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

The turnovers need to stop.
