Ha. I just now watched the highlights and realize Kunitz's goal was an own-goal by CBL.

I'll take the fantasy points anyway :laugh:

I think he's a good player who can play a checking line role and provide scoring depth. Engelland won't be dressed in the playoffs. Jeffrey should be traded. D'Agostini is better than Craig Adams, but Adams will probably win out because he was once a great Pk'er.

As surprisingly decent as Engelland has looked on the wing, I don't understand why Glass and Adams are currently playing on the third line over guys like Jeffrey and D'Agostini.

Jeffrey-Sutter-D'Agostini
Glass-Vitale-Adams

looks a whole lot better to me than

Glass-Sutter-Adams
Jeffrey-Vitale-Engelland

At least the former has one line capable of providing some depth scoring and shouldn't be any worse in terms of puck possession.

They are starting because they are better hockey players. Engelland hasn't been good on t he wing. He's scored a couple goals, but more often than not, he has no idea what he's doing. I don't think Tanner Glass has played poorly at all this season.

Engelland has looked better than Glass in the last few games. Not only because of the goals, but because he is helping his team maintain possession of the puck more effectively than Glass.

Glass and Adams are constantly pinned in their own zone no matter who they are centered by. Jeffrey - Vitale - Engo have been getting offensive zone time much more regularly.

2 injuries and Glass and Adams are playing on the third line. Some people want to not make trades at the deadline?

They look way too busy for me. They have to wear all black pants for the shirts to be ok.
