Please send Goldobin down.........he's not going to gain anything floating around for 9 more games.  Get him to Utica where the games are high intensity and he can be an impact player.  Start fresh in Van in September.

Yes.  Yes!

 

The best thing for guys like Demko, Jake, Goldobin and whoever else they can spare to send down, is to get that team on a run, right into the playoffs.  Imagine the boost in confidence, the experienced gained, and the opportunities to be coached in a meaningful context.  Plus it will give us poor schmuks something to cheer for other than the draft lottery.

Willie needs to play him with some talent and give him some ice time

There is zero reason to keep him playing in Van, with a patchwork lineup in games with no meaning.  He could easily be the difference to the Comets making the playoffs or missing.  I'd rather he was being an impact player than running out the season clock at half speed.

Yeah Im guilty of wanting to see Goals play, but it makes way more sense to let him play meaningful games as a top 6 in the A - a deep playoff run would build his confidence going into next season, which he will need, because Willie will smash it out of him like a brick on a wine glass.

Played 12:20.  As many EV minutes as Sutter.  He simply wasn't on special teams yet - WD said he wants to get him on the PP.

"We had some opportunities. The missed shot and off-side goal are turning points in the game. Those are big plays at big times." - Henrik

At least Sedins have mastered talking everything from the 3rd-person view in the postgame interview, even their own (mis)plays.

Next up 

 

Van vs Minnesota

NJ vs Carolina

Arizona vs Washington

 

Nucks 67 pts / 73 gp

NJ 66 pts / 73 gp

Arizona 63 pts / 74gp

 

Jersey should over take us as I don' see us beating the Wild at home, and Carolina is beatable (and NJ is home)

Arizona seems to be locking up 2nd overall as no chance they beat the Caps at home

What i would love to see is Goldie on the left wing, Jake on the right wing...one attacking the net the other doing his razzle dazzle.  Get the kids some confidence rather than being trounced up here while willie has his Megnasms....

and maybe he creates some chemistry with Jake?
