Scott Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 our pair with the lowest expectations is the only pair on the sheet and they fall behind all three on the fucking Devils? What's that tell you how bad we've been, how pretty useless this stat is or how incredibly good the Devils are? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichieNextel305 Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 (edited) At this point, I would go back to the basics. Kreider-Zibanejad-Vesey Panarin-Trocheck-Kravtsov Lafreniere-Chytil-Kakko Blais-Goodrow-Reaves Reunite the kids. Give Panarin the responsibility of trying to get Kravtsov going. Give Zibanejad and Kreider someone who is a workman like winger. Keep the 4th line basically as is. And I guess see what happens. Just me though. If Gauthier is healthy, maybe flip him out with Vesey and bump Vesey down to 4th line in place of Reaves.

Replace Reaves with Gauthier and just run this roster for a week. Let's see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Run this and hope you make the playoffs then try and address it at the deadline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the reality is, I just don’t think there is much there sadly. I don’t see this kid having much of a shelf life in this league. It was a swing by Gordie Clark to select him, and it just doesn’t look like it’s going to pan out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they can trade him for some assets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrooksBurner Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 I would give the kid line more ES minutes than the top 2 lines here and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RangersIn7 Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 He should absolutely look at the Kid line and roll them together for a minute. If they get going at even strength, it will create favorable matchups elsewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if it’s a tremendous boost but I’m all for bringing up rydahl to play with Blais and Goodie. He seems to be adjusting to the smaller rink and has got on the score sheet more frequently lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would guess Reaves has some kind of injury, as a GG guy I don't see him falling off the map entirely this early in the season when there's so much junk already in the mix.

We gonna put together Jones-Fox, Miller-Schneider, and Hajek-Trouba? Sounds even more calamitous. And no cap space for a trade, nor would I throw another rookie to the fire like Robertson because there's no way they're better than what we have.

One-on-one defense isnt working. Zone defense is probably a better option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
