We finally have a legit back-up goalie and you're gonna be a problem now? **** it, start Bernier and relegate MBW to back-up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beekay414 Posted October 2, 2021 Author Share Posted October 2, 2021 Tatar-Hughes-Sharangovich Zacha-Hischier-Bratt Kuokkanen-Mercer-Thompson Wood-McLeod-Vesey Would be my forwards going into the season as it stands after tonight. Johnsson can glue his *** to a seat in the press box or get waived. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a whole lot of skill without a ton of puck retrieval lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Zacha and tatar really flashed some chemistry in the game. Not sure if it continues, but it was nice. Those two + kuokkanen actually seemed to function well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beekay414 Posted October 2, 2021 Author Share Posted October 2, 2021 (edited) Honestly, I'd try to trade Wood right now. I just don't like forcing him into the lineup. He's good but I'd rather see what we have in Tyce Thompson going forward. I mean, I know we could just not sign Vesey but I like what he brings for us and we could get something solid for Wood IMO.

Zacha goal and kuokkanen goal were power plays and tatar was a delayed penalty. Tatar and Zacha made pretty plays, but I mentioned on hf that I wanted to see it result in shots, not too many passes which eventually get picked 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't think Zacha needs to be on the dot. Just put Mercer there. He's taking it by the horns right now and you're going to force a square peg into a round hole after Zacha flashed on the wing last year? Makes no sense to me. Don't overthink it. I'd kill to be Ruff right now. We have so many intriguing forward options, the offense should be fun as hell. We're going to be a bubble team barring injuries/Covid and how good we really are will revolve around special teams and the blue line.

I hate the idea that they keep wanting to put Zacha in the middle. So frustrating and I don't think they are going away from it. But offensively, this team could be really freaking fun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
