Post-Game Talk: Thurs. Oct 27th 2016 | Coyotes 5 @ Flyers 4

They looked good but I don't mind Schenn going back to line 1 since he appears to be back into form

I'm not complaining about that. I'm fine with swapping Schenn for Read. I'm saying keep the other two parts in place instead of moving up Bellemare.

 

[Curufinwe]

Then that would make Vandevelde-Gordon-Weise the 3rd line, which I doubt.

There's no way that Cousins line plays since we know for a fact Laughton and Raffl can't play Saturday.

How do we know Raffl can't play?

 

[Hurricane28]

How do we know Raffl can't play?

Raffl was out 10-14 days from last Tuesday so it is in that window

 

[Hiesenberg]

If Raffl is 100% he can play at anytime, he's not an LTIR guy, Leier was already demoted, so roster spot isn't an issue. But I haven't heard he's cleared yet.

 

[Random Forest]

How do we know Raffl can't play?

If Raffl were to play he wouldn't be practicing with Laughton.

 

[Curufinwe]

So Cousins goes from 3C to healthy scratch?

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Good, wouldn't want Provorov to keep playing well or anything... Manning sucks but Streit was even worse when with provorov.

I think the pairings are going to have issues somewhere no matter the pairings until MDZ gets back.

I don't care who they play at this point as long as McDonald is continually scratched or banished.

I was under the impression that being put on IR meant he was still gonna be out a while longer.

 

[Curufinwe]

It's a minimum of 7 days but the IR date listed on CapFriendly is 10/18.

A player placed on Injured Reserve is ineligible to compete in NHL games for a period of not less than seven days.

True but I still think there's better options.

With the same 6, I'd prefer

Provorov-Gudas
Manning-Ghost
Schultz-Streit
Dried out dog turd
Half eaten poptart
MacDonald

Just because we know Streit with Provorov was rough. This is just nitpicking of course, no matter what we're still going to have issues, but I'm just saying this would be my preference.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

There is no way on this Earth that Morin is a worse hockey player at this moment than McDonald, inexperienced though he is. The only question is if bringing him up now will in any way hamper his development. I'd say without being on the inside it is exceedingly hard if not impossible for us to say that, but has anyone been watching the Phantoms closely and can offer an update on his play thus far?

I'd rather just chuck a dead pigeon on the ice for every shift AMac would have played. At least it might slow down the opposition when they cruise into our zone.

At least they'd need to skate around the bird, Amac backs in so fast it's like he's not even there. I also doubt the bird would get in the damn goalies way while he's trying to move around the crease.

Exactly what I was thinking.

Ghost - Gudas
Provy - Streit
Schultz - Dead Bird
Manning

 

[hatcher]

So the lines at practice are

Schenn-Giroux-Simmonds
Konecny-Couturier-Voracek
Read-Bellemare-Lyubimov
Laughton-Cousins-Raffl
Vandevelde-Gordon-Weise

Which I guess means Cousins is getting scratched and Gordon is back in...

The top 6 is back to what it should be but I don't know why he thinks Bellemare should be on the third line.

I think Hexy is looking to see who to keep because a trades coming.

I was in the area but didnt see any of this walking out last night. Anyone else see anything?

 

[Rebels57]

Schultz with Ghost today. Mac with MDZ. Looks like hes out tomorrow

Sweet. I can watch tomorrow nights game!

 

[Rebels57]

Provy/Streit back together, and now Gudas/Manning.

Is that for real?

Hak is clueless.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

The guy who runs that site is such a weasel.

 

[Striiker]

Ghost - Gudas
Provy - Streit

these might be my favorite posts ever.

@ the bolded

yeah the Hawks game was a tough watch no doubt.
do we see these pairings when MDZ gets back?

MDZ-Ghost
Provorov-Gudas
Streit-Manning

Schultz

AMAC riding the buses in the AHL.

That needs to be our top 4 and I don't care how the bottom 2 look so long as Mac isn't there.

yeah. I do think tho they will eventually have to manage the minutes of Provorov as we get later in the season. It is a long year and a 82 game NHL season is nothing like a 70 game(or whatever it is) junior year.
could see him getting more maintenance days as well.
