Lafferty was one of the best players for either team and even if that was just first game adrenaline + luck I’d like to see him bumped up with Sid. I think he can possess as well as Simon while also bringing size and probably the right shot is advantageous for Sid.
Agreed. Really this coaching staff/JR have to change up their thinking cuz none of what they're doing to start is working.
Starts with playing Marino and probably trying out Riiko too.
Working hard on a different system that will give them a better chance/more consistent effort.
And letting go of some of the coaches pets to give some Wilkes youth the potential shot in the arm the F group needs.
Some of that will happen but i don't see enough of it happening to make a huge difference.
Sully and probably JR too will be in the hot seat from fans/maybe a few rebel media, if this train keeps trying to go down the rails tipped to the side on one rail like they have been.
Jake-Sid-Lafferty
Chucky-McCann-Tanev <give it another shot.
AJ-Blueger-DiPauli/Angello
Simon-Agozzino-Angello/DiPauli
Dumo-Letang
MP-Schultz
JJ/Riiko-Marino
I'd waive ZAR today and bring DiPauli and Angello up.
I'd practice breakouts all day/every day.
I'd play a more conservative clog the NZ style vs sending 2/3 Forecheckers every shift.
I'd pray...
