Good to the staff and team dealing with it on a game by game basis. Yea, I'm just worried Green is reverting back, that was some ugly 3rd periods early in the season before until he started using our top two lines more.

It speaks to his increasing confidence and greater sense of on-ice awareness that he thought to make that pass to Miller instead.

My problem is that Green did this early in the season and the Canucks were getting caved in 3rd periods. He changed it up starting in December, to great success. I don't want to see him revert back to holding leads with the 4th line playing crazy minutes in the 3rd because it'll come back to bite us. The top lines were getting hemmed in their own end in the third period as well. The Blues were pressing and their wasn't a whole lot anyone could do about it. The whole point of having players like Beagle and Sutter on the roster is so we can throw them in their when things get hairy. The "changing it up" probably had more to do with Sutter and Beagle both being injured than anything. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beagle with 4:14 on the pk - gave up nothing - and likewise 5 on 5. His play in the 3rd was gutsy. Blocking shots and repeating while in visible pain. Those kinds of plays elevate the team. How do you not go all out when you see your teammate lay it all out. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's sad to see because I really like him as a player and a talent. He can do some really good things out there but his decision making and awareness is awful right now, might be a confidence issue but I really hope he can right the ship soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SergioMomesso Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Boeser was horrid on the PP down low. The defender just had to hold his stick out and Boeser would make a brutal pass or just hand it over. No head fakes or adjustments at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boeser can either treat this as an opportunity to grow his game or sulk. Knowing nothing about him (except for what I ve read/seen), the chances are good that he will see this as a challenge and evolve his game further (fingers crossed). Perhaps, Green and JB are trying to help him take his game to the next level cause having an effective third line will go along way in the playoffs (having a fluid roster, just like most Stanley cup champs, will go a long way to increasing our chances and making us a tougher team to prep for).

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. 2 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s gotta be tough getting yanked from that line. Virt makes them more dangerous with weight and speed. Brick isn’t bringing much to that line as it’s more of a puck retrieval and hustle line not brocks strengths. And on the PP he’s playing that low post spot. Rooting for the guy cause we need him but that deployment is going to take its toll on his numbers. 5 straight without a point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he went down, Green had to use the top two lines more and learned that they can do just fine holding a lead in the third as well so he kept it up after Beagle returned in December. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What we are seeing now are the fruits of a deeper and more talented line up. Sometimes guys get pushed down and Brock is feeling it right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
