Of course we should win, but it's the absolute definition of a trap game - a crappy team on the road (though I'm aware our road record is good) in between Edmonton and a home and home with the Wild, who just beat the Avs in Denver.
I like Dorofeyev but he looked slow vs. Edmonton, but at least he isn't afraid to shoot or go to the front of the net. But he's playing on the second line. It's our third and fourth line that are bad, which is where Cotter slots in. On Tuesday, noticeably awful were Kessel, Quick and our AHL players, Koleslaw and Howden......oh, wait, they're in the NHL.
Smith and Carrier can't get back fast enough if we want to do anything in the playoffs.
