The top 6 is a handful for other teams right now, I don't think they are changing until someone in the top 6 slows down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toyotasfan Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 I hope Schaller brings some energy , throws at least 4-5 hits on the forecheck and has a stellar PK. Otherwise it should be Bailey or Mack getting a chance. Isles are having scoring issues lately, Barzal is in a slump. It’ll be tight , but it’s a good time to play the Islanders. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coconuts Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 It's a morning game, gross. I hate morning games. Hopefully the boys are awake and ready to take it to the Isles. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why does Schaller need to provide that or he's out? MacEwen may throw a few hits, but Bailey doesn't play that game and neither player PKs. Schaller plays a more valuable role especially with Motte out and the fact that Schaller has been our 2nd most utilized player on the PK when he's in the lineup. Schaller has thrown less than a hit per game average, so it seems like a set up for unwarranted disappointment. I don't think he has that short of a leash on the AHL callups.

Nuxfanabroad Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Had a strange dream: Our Van gang confidently walkin' a desolate Long Isle beach in Flyin' V, leather vests(led by Bo, EP & Bro LouiE)..suddenly bottles start clicking, & a plaintive wail arises: "Orca whalesss..come out to play-ay-ayy..." Well you know what happens next. Our guys easily take care of biz. Then are approached by three figures, near the shore: Trotz-Munster, Buttman & Dr Evil, saying in unison: "You Orca Whales are GOOOD, reaalll good...RIFF!" (so then I woke up) GCG! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No they haven’t and you will probably see that change sooner than not for that reason. Being deployed on the third line has been tough for Boeser but it always helps him be better hockey player overall in that role. I’m not talking goals. Eventually he may have to be on Horvats line so he does need a more rounded game. Also Boeser is not a veteran and is still developing. I’d imagine we are going to see an even better Boeser in the near future. He needs to add a little more versatility to his game so he can play on different lines. If matchups are tough or the top line isn’t scoring and so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruilin96 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Clutterbuck disgusts me as a human being. Remember the Boeser incident, where I know it was Boeser who initiated contact and the bench door being opened which led to this scarier and unfortunate situation. Boeser was stretchered off the ice, and we are thankful it wasn’t career ending and we get to see Boeser playing again. Then you look at Clutterbuck’s reaction, he seem like he was proud of what he did, as he help Brazil eliminated his only threat in the Calder race. Similar scenario happened between Sabourin and Backes; Sabourin attempts to hit Backes, and end up getting the worst of the collision. Sabourin needed to be stretchered off the ice and Backes showed distress and remorse even though it wasn’t his fault at all. It tells you a lot about a player when incidents like this happen. I have 0 respect for Clutterbuck and hope we destroy his team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well. At 6'4" he's bigger than Jake, and from what I've seen of his Utica games, is faster too. And with 3 hatrticks in 4 games, no-one can dispute his goal scoring touch. If he plays, expect a few hits that will jar the puck loose, bit don't expect any fights, that's not his game. He had great chemistry with Lind and Jasek, thus I would see him thriving with Gaudette and Boeser, not with Beagle and Sutter 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
