    Juice is the best. I was thoroughly entertained by him during the ASG. I hope that he sticks with Sportsnet. Burke and Juice are the only reason I don’t mute it between periods anymore.

    Am I the only one seeing Green’s plan behind moving Boeser to the 3rd? To me it all makes sense. The coach is satisfied with his offensive skills, but sees defensive work is needed to become a more complete 200 foot player. So he decides to switch Brock and Jake from the 1st line to the 3rd. This allows Green to take a closer offensive play-driving game look at Virtanen who has earned his shot to see if he can be that play driving top line power forward we hoped to get. Brock at the same time then gets to work on his overall game with two less defensive minded line mates.

     

    It is setting him up nicely if all goes well to fit on the line with the 2 other defense/offense 2 way players in Bo and Pearson, replacing Eriksson.

     

    And even while tinkering with the lines the team keeps winning. A great result a lot of other teams wish they had.

    Considering a lot of us have made the same points, I’m going to say No, you aren’t the only one. In fact I’d say the majority understand the move for the same reasons. I have only seen a handful of people on CDC criticize the move.

    weak sidestep.  you didn't answer the question.

     

    would you be using EP's line - or Gaudette's for that matter - to take those dzone starts down the stretch, and kill those penalties?

     

    You expect a guy like Beagle to outshoot an opponent in that context?  Against the top 6 of the Stanley Cup Champions?

     

    Please.

     

    You clearly don't understand the value of a player like Beagle - (or Malhotra for that matter).   There's been over a decade of illustration.

     

     

     

     

    The Stanley Cup Championship Washington Capitals saw the value of Beagle centering their shut down line and PK in a similar fashion. Seemed to work out alright for them... just saying.

    How is St.Louis top team in the West? They have  no name roster,  a bunch of grinders.. so pathetic to see them do well when NHL success comes from high skill high flash not grinding.

     

    St. Louis is an abomination, an anomaly to win the cup, they shouldnt be doing so well in modern nhl.

    Name checks out.
