Googlie Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 (edited) Will Podz be the new "Son of Erik" when the oppo pulls their goalie? Or will Green just replace Loui with Garland and have a Pearson - Horvat - Garland last minute line? Or if Podz muscles his way onto Bo's line, would Green go with Podz - Bo - Conor as the line? Pearson and Bo sure had some great empty net chemistry (as had LE) Edited September 17, 2021 by Googlie Player Name circumvented 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be down the road a year or even more, but I hope Trav puts them out together a couple times, at the very least in preseason. Finally, there is very real competition on that side; and Hogz will be pushing Pearson on the left; and, Miller could move to the middle too. Miller - Petey - Boes Hogz - Bo - Podz Pearson - Dickie - Garland Motter - Sutts - Big Mac (I must be forgetting someone; I always do.) You did good Highmore as 13th forward... 1. Miller - Petey - Boeser 2. Hoglander -- Horvat -- Garland 3.Parson - Dickinson - Podkolzin----Podkolzin and Hoglander switch in games 4.MacEwen - Sutter - Motte -----Highmore, Bailey, Gadjovich 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And there will be some shuffling and perhaps dropping some contracts to get HP Sauce (Hughes/Pettersson) signed under the cap. I see a lot of posters have the wings on their 'wrong' sides; isn't Hogz left side & Podz right side? My lineup isn't really for now as Podz will most likely need time to force his way up the right side. Is Garland as comfortable on the left? If so, we have even more flexibility; and Garland might could make a good 3C perhaps? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its quite enticing thinking of a 4th line with both Motte and Lockwood on it. Both speed demons looking for a hit... Puck hounds... I like the idea of that 4th line... Its been a long time since we had such a deep forward line up... Still remember how good Motte was during the play offs run...

That's what Tram's wife, Anastasia, did in the spring, in preparation for Nik's return to the NHL. His English was deemed good enough to not warrant extensive tutoring. Didn't pan out though.

This.... times 1000.... This can not be stated often enough. There will be owners around the league looking enviously at what brewing in Vancouver. With a bit of luck this could turn into a championship side... so flipping excited for the next seasons... 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locke Lamora Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 Podz is so damned likeable. Can’t always say I’ve felt that about Russian players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
