This is '15-'16 level shit right here.

Edit: Rooney - Street - Hayden. Let's take a moment to appreciate that this is a line for us. Good lord.

Looks even worse if Blackwood doesn't start. I'm kind of split between hoping he feels good enough to play, or making this a sacrificial game and letting him get some rest.

 

[Better Call Sal]

Of course, I'm lucky enough to be in attendance tonight. Section 133.

But I hope we take it to them style wise the way we did last time. I know we're going to be missing Jack again and potentially Bratt as well, but hopefully the boys will be chomping at the bit to take it to them again tonight.

Really not looking forward to having to see the Isles contingent at the arena with their goddamn Yes chant. Hopefully it doesn't even come out tonight, god willing.

 

[My3Sons]

Simmonds is listed twice?

Typo. It's Wood on the 3rd line.

 

[tr83]

Be honest, its Wood on the first line because AdVaNcEd StAtS

You are correct but I would like to point on that on paper I really like boqvist zacha wood as a third line. It could be much worse ya know. They could have boqvist on the fourth and Rooney on the third. Hopefully they play well but everyone on that fourth line is more talented than cam Jansen and Andrew Peters so we have made some progress. Maybe they will chip in offensively tonight. I hope they do lol

Thank you for catching that, meant to make that switch lol.

I had this typed up for backup for JK the other day for the Bruins game, so I just saved it for next time around.

A retro roster for retro night (incidentally, a win for that BTTF night )

 

[britdevil]

Retro night? Guaranteed loss.

As I've said before, I definitely like Zacha and Wood on the same line. Adding Boqvist is kind of interesting.

They work because wood shoots everything and zacha never shoots

 

[Better Call Sal]

Appears that'll be what we're getting.

 

[Nubmer6]

Nice to have 2 RWs on the 1st line and 2 LWs on the 3rd line.

I guess we'll never see the "Boqvist on the 1st line" experiment again since he proved he can't play there by getting hurt on his first shift.

 

[Azathoth]

Bleh

 

[NjDevsRR]

Those first three lines are intriguing. That 4th line tho, woof...

 

[JK3]

Oof those lines. Not sure why we haven't seen any call ups, I don't care if it's only for a few games, get that entire 4th line the f*** out of here.

They're really trying to run Mac into the ground, the kid has been sick, give him a day off FFS.

 

[Better Call Sal]

Glad that Jack is at least skating again.

 

[MartyOwns]

cmon lou may have f***ed us but i wouldn’t call him retro trash

i might actually watch this one. lgd

 

[NJDevs26]

Fitting GDT subject

 

[SteveCangialosi123]

Rooney seems to be good at preventing goals at least. He stinks, but the team doesn’t get scored on much when he’s out there. He’s got that going for him, which is nice.

That's my favorite line of the bunch - hope it gets somebody going.

Ugh those lines are pretty terrible. I wonder what Camalleri, Dean McAmmond, and Lee Stempniak are doing right now...

It would be funny if it weren't so sad.

Wood skated too fast and sent the team back in time to 1985. That's why we're so bad this year.
