He doesn't look slow like he did last year post injury. He's never been a speedster, but he seems to be healthy, at least, and I see some decent skating.
I thought Coyle looked excellent tonight playing in the top 6. Who knows if that can last, but at this point maybe move Nino down to the 3rd line with Ek and Grrenway. Maybe he can relax and find some chemistry with them. I also don't see NN being effective on the PP, at all.
It just doesn't make any sense to me that Nino's game can disappear like this. We could really use him, if we are going to amount to anything this year.
