not to mention the one canadiens goal was on a perfect screen by lovejoy
Lovejoy yes screened the hell out of Kinkaid on the Montreal goal. Down to a knee to block a shot too early when he was miles from the shooter and way too early and merely provided a screen. But that turnover on the PK was on the other hand not his fault.Crosschecking a Canadiens forward in the face, while already down a man, in a game in which you're fighting for your playoff lives isn't a stupid mistake?

We're not talking about the same play.Lovejoy yes screened the hell out of Kinkaid on the Montreal goal. Down to a knee to block a shot too early when he was miles from the shooter and way too early and merely provided a screen. But that turnover on the PK was on the other hand not his fault.
Fair-ish.Anyone can take a bad penalty, Lovejoy isn’t a serial offender, I’m talking about constantly getting caught up ice after reckless pinches leaving John Moore of all people to try to clean up the mess.
One of my favorite moments this season was a month or two ago. Butcher broke out of the zone and saw a wide-open Lovejoy streaking up the right side...lovejoy is where our offense goes to die, breakouts never get started and the other team’s offense feasts
Fair-ish.
I just don't find his pinches to be that reckless.
28 isn't the issue with that pairing.And I would prefer Sevs on the third pairing to Lovejoy, I’m just saying it’s not nearly as big a deal as fans are making it out to be, and most coaches would do this when it comes down to crunch time. Plus if Sevs was on the third pairing it might take away from Butcher’s offense constantly having to stay back and cover the wild pinches. And I’m sick to death of the 2-28 pairing, any excuse to end it is fine with me.

Severson needs a partner who has his head on straight and doesn't take as many chances as he does. Moore is as dumb as a box of rocks, so that's a bad option. Butcher is okay, but has some defensive issues of his own (which are mostly due to his size and skating) so that's not ideal. Greene fits the type of partner he needs, but given the matchups he gets and his own decline I'm not sure that's much help. I wonder if Mueller would work well with him?
lovejoy still in over severson? jesus christ. ive steered clear of harping on lineup decisions but that is just flat out pitiful. just shouldn't happen, especially now. i usually try to think of justifiable reasons and give the benefit of the doubt, but there arent any for this nonsense.
haha actually...I think this is a shame. That poor woman has to live with this the rest of her life, and he, in my view, is way out of line with this stuff. Kids watch this show. What sort of example and role model is he? Yeah, let's teach kids that they have to be humiliated by the boss. If any of my kids were on the show and he did this to them, regardless of the reason, there'd be a "discussion" after the show. What some people will do for money. Really awful.
Damon Severson is just 1 point shy of Travis Zajac.
John Moore still does his goofiest impression of Erik Karlsson on a nightly basis.
Just saying.
Why is it every time someone criticizes Severson's defensive play, the response is always about his points or shot generation? No one disputes that he's good there.Damon Severson is just 1 point shy of Travis Zajac.

You'd think Sevs would offer more than Lovejoy in sheltered minutes. Play Sevs on the third pair for a game if need be. I don't see Lovejoy making a difference in a good way these last few games.

Kick their ass. I want the same 4-0 drubbing they gave us on the last day of the season 5 years ago. @Bleedred knows what I'm talking about
