For those who play hockey, how easy is it to not hit the net 3 feet out?

Unless you are being checked in the hands, falling down, or have a broken stick? Lol, actually pretty hard to miss by more than a few inches if you are in close.  All bets off if you are trying a close-in move or a deke -- in that case, as everyone knows, you can end up with no real shot at all.  Tanev has no excuse for missing the net by a foot from 10 feet out.  Especially on a wrist shot.  In the old days (my day) a guy like that would probably not be expected to get in that far.

Have Petey and Boeser done anything 5v5 last 10 games?

No, but I said it in pre-season that those shouldn't be on the same line in reg play.

 

My lines in pre-season were

Boeser - Horvat - Miller/Ferland

Goldobin - Petterson - Miller/Ferland

Gaudette - Sutter - Virtanen

Schaller - Beagle - Motte/Pearson/Roussel when he's back.

 

Loui didn't make the cut.

 

Pearson was on the block.

 

 

Every line has speed, skill and size on it, no weaknesses. And f*ck me that 4th line if it's Shaller / Beagle / Roussel would be just pain to play against. The third would be no joke either.

 

 

But here we are I suppose.

The team generally doesn't look good at all, save for spurts far too late in a game to get back in it (stop me when it starts sounding very familiar)

The D in the period though...  that was something 

Well, they're keeping scores down, for the most part........team isn't scoring

How so?  LE's looked ok in this game, so far.   If you were looking objectively, you'd see 4-5 guys you'd take our before LE.

Please name the 4 or 5 forwards you would take out before LE?    I believe LE has had lowest TOI except the young 4C the last few games so the coach thinks he's the least valuable forward (except the young 4c)

To me, that's just not working hard.  Dump, chase and forecheck like madmen is how you bust a defensive posture........right now they aren't forechecking worth a damn 

i dont have a problem with their work ethic tbh, but our neutral zone play is garbage.
