He just is injured so much, I’m not sure he’s the same player anymore because of that. What are you talkin about. Sutter is foundational. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 3 minutes ago, I.Am.Ironman said: No.. we were winning when it was Miller - EP40 - Virtanen. Not sure why you have a blind hate for Virtanen on the first line and a blind love for Brock (i hope he isn't out long). Virtanen was scoring at a point per game pace on that line. Brock was scoring at the same pace on the first line as he was on the 3rd. When the virtanen - ep40 - miller line got broken up the team started to lose. I am not saying that is the reason we were losing but those two things coincided. I've got an extra pair of homer shades if you need, bruh! $5. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashian Kassian Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Just caught the highlights of Backlund going at Pettersson, what a puke. How about Stone holding onto Pettersson against the wall. I thought Brough made a good point this week about the 'deterrence' and how it doesn't really work. But we need to have some backbone, and if they are going to go after our guy atleast try to play the body on their guy. When Friedman is calling you out you know its a problem. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would he have fought if it wasn't Miller? Nope. If he's out on the faceoffs and giving EP40 shots, what would Miller do? I think he did what he had to do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marky had a great game, but I'd like to see Demko more. JB and TG prefer burned out old f....s. on retirement contracts over young studs that want to make a difference every shift... 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try to look for the Champagne stains on the ceiling.” God I hate him. I don't really blame him as much as i blame the Lames media guys asking an irrelevant question 9 years 3 teams later. that city have an inferiority complex with us and will take whatever jab they could take on the team and city whenever they can.

Popular Post Smashian Kassian Posted February 9, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 9, 2020 (edited) I don't see this as a Green problem. There's only so much a coach can do. I think he communicates well and has done a good job with individual players. There are things that can be done better, starting with the PP. This PP could be the difference between making or missing playoffs. Edited February 9, 2020 by Smashian Kassian 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And who knows what he has actually been saying in the dressing room this season? And what did u understand from his rant after the Boston game?

You realize Ferland may be in question for the balance of the season - right? Trading deadline is coming quick, you may wanna look at both McEwen and Bailey before that. Otherwise send em back to Uitca. BTW imagine the horror Benning felt seeing Miller chucking his precious knuckles!
