In addition to the 2021/2022 Playoff Line Combos threadWhy do we have two of these threads?
Why do we have two of these threads?
Coaches trust vets. To begin the playoffs Bednar is going to likely turn to Helm/Cogliano and if they play like trash I'm sure we'll see LOC/NAK inserted but if they don't/the Avs are winning they'll stay in the lineup.
Defense is more iffy. EJ SHOULD be the guy in the lineup and playing with Byram but the coaches have shown over the course of the season that they trust JMFJ more than they trust EJ based on minutes allocation and PK role.
I think NAK's penalties. But that's gotten a lot better as the season has gone on.What's the reasoning behind playing LOC over NAK?
PK?
Yea, NAK has significantly better hands and a much better shot.I think NAK's penalties. But that's gotten a lot better as the season has gone on.
If we play a "heavier" team like Dallas (because vegas is toast), the MacDermid will be rotated in as needed to restore order in the Universe. Like Thor or Zeus.
Random question, say we win the Cup and MacDermid doesn’t play at all in the playoffs, did he play enough games to get his name on the cup?
I surmise that guys we got at the TDL, because they had played for their respective teams prior to the TDL, do not have to play 41 games with the Avs to get their names engraved.Yeah he did. Minimum requirement is 41 games. He played 57.

I don’t see how you can sit NAK I like his energy and I also thoughtoconner was better last nightI think the vets play.
