GDT: Game #7 Wings vs Avs: October 17th 2013, 7 PM MST | A serious case of Elder Abuse

[Avs_19]

EJ didn't get any PK time tonight.

EJ didn't get any PK time tonight.

Hmm, that seems awfully strange to me.

 

[PeterTheGreat]

Why was Mitchell cross checking the wings player on the PK only to lose his stick and coast to the bench. Hes a hockey Pejorative Slur.

Also why was Mackinnon out there on the PK when Franzen scored? That was his lane that the puck went through. Mistake by Roy.

I dont like Mackinnons game right now, in any zone.

EJ/Hejda/Benoit were good. The other 3 were bad. Wilson very bad.

Hope Landy is ok. On to Buffalo in whats a very winnable game.

Also now that we lost, can we please sit Wilson?

 

[The Kingslayer]

EJ didn't get any PK time tonight.

That needs to change next game. Wilson needs to be scratched next game aswell

 

[Avs_19]

That needs to change next game. Wilson needs to be scratched next game aswell

Yup.

Roy's love for Wilson and Guenin is a bit alarming. Guenin wasn't bad tonight but him and Wilson together still isn't good. Neither one of them can move the puck.

 

[Avs71]

EJ didn't get any PK time tonight.

Never does.

 

[hockeyfish]

Barrie needs to be brought back, and Benoit needs to be moved up and paired with him. Screw the Sarich/whoever pairing.

 

[The Kingslayer]

Mackinnon definetly cannot let that pass go through on that second Franzen goal. Trial by fire. He will learn

 

[Freudian]

It could be worse. Leafs lost 3-2 with this as the gamewinner.

 

[The Kingslayer]

Barrie needs to be brought back, and Benoit needs to be moved up and paired with him. Screw the Sarich/whoever pairing.

Sarich has been fine and actually a very pleasant surprise. Wilson is the suck

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Yup.

Roy's love for Wilson and Guenin is a bit alarming. Guenin wasn't bad tonight but him and Wilson together still isn't good. Neither one of them can move the puck.

Well he tried Barrie there and it was going well. In no way he should try Holden and Ginyu.

Put Barrie and WIlson together... get the common denominator out and see how well those to play together.

 

[ColoradoSportsFan]

On the train home now. Over capacity sell out is nice. Result sucked though.

Too soon for "Kronwalled" jokes?

 

[hockeyfish]

I'll call it passable. But I feel Benoit is wasted on him.

 

[member 116861]

Put in Barrie and Holden and see what happens. Although I don't mind keeping Guenin in the lineup.

 

[Freudian]

I like Benoit for the most part, but his shots and dump-ins are so poorly timed that we rarely get anything out of them. He needs to read what his teammates are doing a bit better.

 

[Nihiliste]

Yeah I mostly like what Roy has been doing but leaning on Benoit/Wilson on the PK instead of putting EJ out there seems questionable.

Barrie needs to be back in and one of Wilson/Guenin need to sit. It should really be Wilson but I want to get Barrie back on his natural side.

 

[Freudian]

With how Roy and Sakic has talked about Wilson, I imagine they will let him play himself into game form.

 

[S E P H]

This is the best start we wanted, but that is freakin crazy playing Benoit on the PK over EJ. What if scenario, but I doubt Franzen would have scored his first goal if EJ was out there.

I thought Guenin played a really solid game tonight.

Thats the thing, he played well, but I really think someone needs to come out to get Barrie back in the lineup.

EJ hasn't gotten much PK time all year. I think Roy wants him to concentrate on PP and 5 on 5. The PK time will come later.

 

[S E P H]

Wilson, to me, played out of the starting 6 so I agree that Barrie needs to come back in. If Roy see's it as we do is the question for next game.

EJ hasn't gotten much PK time all year. I think Roy wants him to concentrate on PP and 5 on 5. The PK time will come later.

But when you have a sucktard who is 6'5", 230lbs and only scores his goals in the slot and in front of the net ONLY against us. There needs to be better coaching on Roy's part to put out a tougher defenseman to match up with him than a 5'10 defenseman.

 

[Jayevs]

Lineup I'd like to see:
Stastny-Duchene-Parenteau
Landeskog-O'Reilly-Downie
McGinn-MacKinnon-Tanguay
McLeod-Mitchell-Bordeleau

Hejda-Johnson
Holden-Barrie
Benoit-Guenin

 

[The Kingslayer]

Johnson on the left point getting shots through was my favourite part of this game apart from his goal. Too bad the both times he did get his shot through there were no Avs forward screening Monster

 

[The Kingslayer]

I'll call it passable. But I feel Benoit is wasted on him.

I dunno Sarich has made maybe 2 plays all season where I said WTF. Hes been solid on the third pair for us thus far. Wilson is the suck
