I understand that career percentages are important, but I'd argue that recent performance should indicate who gets the nod in the shootout. I don't understand why Hansen or McCann weren't given a chance tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swiss cheese that is...Tons of holes... On a side note, isn't Sbisa, Weber and Baertschi all Swiss? That metaphor is too apt. Since when did we have so many Suiss players?

It's called playing percentages Playing the percentages from a year ago (in regards to Higgins), in a league that is all about what have you done for me lately, is called a longshot. Higgins is a POOR choice this year given the NEW dynamics of the team and the fact that McCann has 7 goals and hasn't even got a sniff on the 1st power play unit and the shootout. It's like Willie telling the rookie how dare you score 7 goals, I'll show you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.I.A.H.N Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Ok, lets do the Ranger shuffle and trade all our rookies and draft picks away, and we will win more.........I am sure, absolutely sure, if we traded our 2016 and 2016 1st's, Demko, Horvat, and Hutton, along with Virtanen and Broeser, we would be a top of the league team.......one in which Willie would not have to be so careful about who he plays and when.... Is that what you guys want????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's won at every level hes coached so I trust him to right this ship. You can't win at chess if you have nothing but pawns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you follow that line of thinking the Sedins would be the first names on the shootout list and we all know how that would end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
