GDT: Wings @ Bruins 7pm, 12-1-18

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Larkin on a 2 on 1, looks over and sees Glendening and smartly takes the shot himself.

LGRW

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

Pretty good PK, hopefully that gets them going a bit. I figured that PP might hurt them a little.

 

[ManwithNoIdentity]

Completely o/t but I had no idea Scotty was 84

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Nice kill there boys.

 

[theYman]

Feel bad for Cholo. Having to deal with pulling that piano.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Now let's play some hockey, Beat the B's boys.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Let's end this 11 game slide in Beantown.

Abdelkader is so goddamn uselessness on that first line

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Nice area pass from Mantha to Larkin to gain the zone.

 

[ManwithNoIdentity]

Abdelkader is so goddamn uselessness on that first line

He's pretty much useless in general

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Abdelkader is so goddamn uselessness on that first line

Like how does he manage to put it on a Bruins players stick while trying to pass to Mantha who is 10 feet away from him?

 

[Realgud]

It's quite unbelievable how an awful nhl player like abdelkader can be playing on the first line.

 

[raymond23]

Abby Killed that entire shift

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

For as much as we want one with Larkin. Having Bert and Ramussen with Glendening is really upping everyone in battles, that line grinds and is hard to play against. I like what that is doing for Rasmussen's development.

I actually wish they would put AA with Mantha and Larkin again. Give it a try. With everyone playing more engaged that might be an extremely tough line to deal with.

Problem is this suicides Nyquist's trade deadline because I am giving him Nielsen and Abdelkader for the next bunch of months. I guess you could go JDLR with Vanek and Nyquist. Double shift Larks, Mantha and AA with Nielsen and Abdelkader as a spare parts line

Why is Ehn up?

Helmer is on IR

Isn't that the truth, And then kills the shift altogether.

Yeah, that is a good point. I still think Abdelkader shouldn't be anywhere near the top 6 and arguably even the top 9...

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Why is Ehn up?

Because Helm is on IR, And he played decently the first time he was up. We needed a forward.

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

Yeah, that is a good point. I still think Abdelkader shouldn't be anywhere near the top 6 and arguably even the top 9...

Yeah I expanded after, but I do struggle with how to fix that. AA or Nyquist seems to be the option but it relegates the other guy to an abysmal existence.

Again at this point I am more thinking long-term so I have more interest in AA getting the crack.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

How was that not a trip?

EDIT: Ah it was. the announcers were just blathering on about something else instead of covering the game.

 

[ManwithNoIdentity]

Green - 2 goals and an assist tonight..book it

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

Interesting I like Larkin as the bumper.

 

[TheMule93]

These powerplays are actually painful to watch

 

[ManwithNoIdentity]

Sooo close
