Tried this year. Started the year running Suter/Scandella/Brodin down the left side. Brodin just couldn't hold it.

Haula's dad said in an interview that Haula is playing injured. They use local anaesthesia for him before every game.

Can we dope up Parise because that's our only chance. Stoll is somehow playing, he better score a hat trick to make up for his horrid play. Also, fletch should be fired especially for trading Burnzie. Take him back over Coyle any day of the week

Credit to Torch again BTW guys... he put in Schroeder and he scored a goal! He put in Stoll and he didn't play as bad as before he was benched... Torch still showing he knows the buttons on this team.
I know some of you have already said he has no shot at the job, but I think he is showing he is absolutely a legit candidate. He could turn out to be a quality coach once he builds a staff of his own.

Only way he's got a shot is if he wins this series. I've not been impressed by him at all. His Prosser obsession needs to stop.

If you live in a Wild or Stars market, I think they'll cut to Wild-Stars when it starts regardless and air the potential Caps-Flyers OT on NBCSN or NHL network.

Did the Granlund - Koivu - Jones line play together extensively or for just periods of the game?
Hadn't even heard of Jones before this game.

I'd make it part of the intro, and play songs throughout the game. Place will go berserk.
Game 4 for me was the least "intense" playoff game I've been to in the last 4 seasons. It just didn't seem as tense for some reason, but Game 6 sure as hell will be.
Haven't been paying much attention this year? Jones has played every game since the trade deadline after we got him from Calgary.
Granlund beasting it. 1g, 1a, 4 shots, and his 25mins of icetime led all forwards. Koivu was next closest at 23:34mins.

How's your burger?
We need playoff Granlund to be regular season Granlund. Also, Koivu and Poms having a good playoffs so far. Who would've thunk. Good to see.
Agreed
Koivu and Poms, the annual playoff empty jerseys aren't so empty and that's a good thing!

If the Granlund move is mainly because he's at wing, he can play that way more often during a season.
If it's not strictly that I think that he can't play this way for a whole season because he'll get hurt playing as physically as he is this series because he's not a big body and eventually over 82 games he'll get taken out.

Well... we know it's not ONLY because he's on wing, because he has played at this elevated level at center in the post season in the past as well...
That doesn't mean that we shouldn't try him long term on the wing to see if he can carry this level into the regular season like we need.

True, in past playoff runs he's elevated his game, but I don't think I'd say he had been the player of the series in those, and in this one I think he has been.
That said, I like him on the wing right now, I hope they stick with that going forward.
He wasn't the player of the series because Zach was playing at a high level... Zach is absent, so now Granlund is taking up the best forward role right now, though not the most productive... but the most impactful.
