Holy Stacked Roster

Outside of Larkin, Green, Nemeth and the two grinders Abby and Glenny, this is it boys and girls

Now THAT, is a hell of a line up for the Wings. I'm going to a play tonight with the lady, hopefully I don't get sick....

 

[ThankGord]

These are some lines I've wanted to see! Ras and Mantha on the same line could be fun.

You should probably take precautionary measures & stay home/eat snacks & pizza/watch the game as a courtesy. (So you don't infect your GF or anyone at the play)

Is Grand Rapids considered in market for this? Honestly don't know if it means just detroit. I like the lineup though overall

 

[ArGarBarGar]

I don't think I'm ever going to like those black seats, honestly.

Feels like an away rink.

I have a weird feeling once they start winning again in a couple years, the red seats will be put back in IMO

What's the deal with Larkin?

What's the deal with Larkin?

Minor Foot/Heel Issue... Could be ready to go next pre-season game... He also said if the season started today he would be playing

 

[Cyborg Yzerberg]

Rasmussen with Bertuzzi and Mantha is what I call giving him a real, honest chance to prove something tonight.

 

[Hen Kolland]

Underrated move putting Zadina in the bumper position on the powerplay. There is no time for him to wind up that one timer. He has to be making decisions before the puck arrives, and if he's shooting, he's pulling that trigger as soon as the puck is on his stick to compensate for the lack of time and space. I feel like they are forcing him to A) continue to learn the tough lessons of time and space, and B) dumb the game down and help him rely on reactionary use of his very good skill level, not overthink and try to make the perfect play.

Also, this game feels like a crash course penalty kill game for Veleno. They are going to run him like he's LGD. A lot of tough matchups, penalty kill, D-zone grinding.

Rasmussen with Bertuzzi and Mantha is what I call giving him a real, honest chance to prove something tonight.

Should be a game to actually draw some conclusions from the younger guys. Ras is getting a big opportunity with more than capable linemates, Zadina wont be playing against Kane and Toews calibre players with a fourth line calibre centerand has some talent on the PP with him as well.

The Isles line up isnt great overall but that fourth line is really good defensively and they have a pretty good d group in as well. SOthe wings definitely have the edge but that defense is solid.

Hoping this gets streamed or I might need to learn how to use a VPN between now and puck drop

Can't wait to see that 2nd line.

 

[TheMule93]

looks like a fun roster tonight

excited to finally see kaski

 

[theYman]

Veleno will get a look with Mantha and Bert. I hope he kicks ass! Nice to see a respectable lineup tonight.
