Rush17 Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 We are going to struggle to disrupt their cycle without myers size on every other shift. He's like an e brake if your struggling with ur sticks his size can break up the cycle. Hope we get better calls after all the messed up calls including the hit from behinds on both Sutter and myers 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we play Demko tonite (who has a great record vs Blues - 2 wins and an O/T loss) we have the best of both worlds. Maybe win, or even lose, and a fresh Marky for game 4 If and if... Go with the hot hand. Don’t let Blues in if can be avoided.... Blues are looking to do more damage, but also know they need to win this game. If we go up 3-0 their will, will be broken... massive game coning up. Play Demko in game 4... Have a good feeling about this one... bring it on Edited August 16, 2020 by spook007 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rush17 Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 I'm not liking our odds with myers out. Edler and Tanev are going to get broken down if green overplays them. Jordie Benn played hard and physical at the start of training camp in sept. He brought nastiness and a hard edge then. Let's hope he can sub in or green needs let the new 6 D get some actual minutes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Just hope that Marky doesn't have lingering concussion issues after head-tapping Bo for the O/T winner) Edited August 16, 2020 by Googlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 2-0 up play the hot goalie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24K PureCool Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Blues last play is to switch in Allan and if we are able to light him up straight away, I think the Blues will will be broken. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Rocket Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 honestly I think Stecher should be the point man on PP2 if Myers can’t go. Spread out the ice time and keep everyone fresh 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly though might be worth while running 7 D and 11 F. Sit Virtanen or MacEwan or one of those guys only playing 5 mins a game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

86Viking Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 If we win today, I think we should roll with Demko tomorrow. Other teams have gone with the 2 goalie format during back to backs. It gives Demko a look at some playoff hockey and more importantly would get rid of some nerves or jitters while doing so. But I can't see coach Green not playing Marky...
