Second and third lines look okay...

I still don't get how Kassian doesn't get benched let alone gets promoted after taking that braindead penalty. And it's not the first time he has taken braindead penalties either. He scores a goal in garbage time and gets rewarded for it... #accountability

Still would rather see three centres deep in the middle but with Rattie's injury that's our best winger gone and not enough wingers left to spread around 3 lines. lol.

Remember last time Reider was on the 1st line in practice and people lost their minds on here?

Did he play there when the game happened?

 

[joestevens29]

Well Nurse and Kassian said the effort is there in response to Hitchcock’s comments. I disagree.

Maybe half the team is playing with torn ACL's?

Because the next winger behind in points in 2019 is Lucic.

 

[Tyrolean]

Auto loss ..

 

[ThreeOfAPerfectPair]

Well **** I thought this was tonight

Flyers/Penguins should be a better game.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

Forget calling it a line blender.

Hitchcock treats this forward group like a gawl damn Rubik's Cube.

 

[Stoneman89]

This extra time will help Hitch consult more of his outside sources on how to fix the team.

 

[Soliloquy of a Dogge]

MCPOINT!

McDavid was given an assist against the Sharks.

A small but important victory.

 

[McDrai]

meh.

Same shit, different toilet

 

[Mez]

Getting mentioned in the same breath as the Ducks...and even they are better off as they can actually retool with their cap situation.

 

[Mez]

I love how Hitch keeps saying "we are built a certain way," its the nicest way to throw shade at Chia.

wait how are they better off in their cap situation? They have perry and kesler on horrible deals still.

Because they have valuable assets that they can afford to lose. Oilers have a load of shit and then some valuable guys that we can not afford to lose.

 

[8LX7psQ]

girl in the 2nd video will probably end up being the best thing about this game.

This.

Random question. What does adding prime Ryan Smyth do to this team? On ice but more in the locker room?

 

[DerpMorg]

Pass on all of this.

 

[McSuper]

Every time I look at the lines my anger at Chiarelli boils over again.

I am with you on this . It is the same on the mains . Every time I see a thread with a decent winger we just don’t have the assets to make a fair offer

 

[BlackDogg]

A horse named Drai.

 

[nabob]

Same ****, different toilet

The RNH - JJ - JP lime was clicking well before JJ got suspended. Not sure if they’ve been tried since.

Something that every single coach here has done for quite a while... It’s almost like they’re hoping one of our million 4th line wingers can step up for a bit and put up some points because they don’t actually have a single top 6 winger to work with. That’s not on the coaches.

I have no ****ng idea why Jesse hasn't been stapled to RNH's side for months already with Khaira or Looch as their LW. If Jesse is playing on the 4th line then ffs send him down. This move has showcase written all over it IMO and I don't like it because we won't get sweet **** all in return for him right now.

Not like it matters. Pens gonna score at least 2 on us in the first, then the blender's coming out 5 minutes into the second period.

First two shots I'm guessing

He’s pointless in 11 of the last 12 games. That’s not necessarily a player who should even be in the lineup let alone playing top 6. I agree he should be sent down instead of playing 4th line. He’s not doing anything up here, so we may as well send him down while we still can and hope he can figure out how to score.

 

[Pass the Saitl Sauce]

So malkin might be suspended for this game? Do we have a chance
