Jost won’t see that top line at all. The Wild always match the JEE line against top lines at home.

Kaprizov is probably going to feast on the Newhook line. Could be high scoring tonight.

That won't be a fair game. Maybe we send the Eagles to play Minny?

What's your obsessions with Jost? Dude sucked ass and he is gone. Did he f*** a bunch of wives from this board or something?

Who do you think gets the net this week or do you think it'll be split down the middle?

I'd like to see them to try MacK with Nuke as the 1st line pair and Mikko as C at the 2nd line with Lehkonen. All of the other pieces are moveable and the D is still the best in the league.

Agreed ! If you gonna experiment line combos you should do it while it's early. I think right now we have a top line and a bottom-9 :laugh: Hard to expect Nuke to do good playing with ERod and Newhook. ERod bet on himself choosing that 1x2M$ hoping production would be that easy in Colorado. Maybe it's time to show up.

Newhook needs to slow the game down. On controlled zone entries make some space and make things happen. Win puck battles along the boards when pursuing the puck. He's doing a bunch of fast skating without puck control and winning puck battles.

I doubt the Avs are going to say anything so I guess this is confirmation? They vaguely mentioned a change in Billington's role on the national broadcast a few days ago but it wasn't much.

Tonight's game just got tougher with the Wild not starting MAF. Damn.

I think it should be Georgie’s net for a few games , see what he’s got. He reminds me of Varly which is good news.

This. Let him find a groove with the team, we already know what Frankie can do (and we know he can come in after not playing awhile and play solid).

If your name starts with Mc or Mac the Avs are interested.

Honestly he seems to be at his best when he's skating his ass off trying to make things happen. He looks invisible otherwise
