Playoff GDT Game 5. US vs the world err Hurricanes. 5:00pm PT. 8:00PM ET

[CH1]

supposedly Slaf and Suzuki played more games than any other NHL players (including Olympics)

defintely will be nice to have a normal, non Olympic schedule
2nd line will also help shoulder some ice time

 

[Habsy]

Their free pass days have officially ended.

The line should have been broken up in game 3.

 

[wiseguy1]

we've made the ECF and even the SCF during their supposed 5 yr window of winning it all

they haven't made it to either

Campbell Bowl winners , they can't touch us.

 

[CH1]

Sure but I'll reserve judgement for when Evans isn't the second line centre

100%

Remembering that Evans is our 2nd line C is the shortcut to gaining perspective on the entire year and our place in the rebuild process

Ya. Canes are 12 and 1 with their first line doing nothing.

 

[Rolex]

We're all disappointed but . . . 28 other teams didn't get this far. Some perspective, please.

Most of us were just happy to beat Tampa...let alone Sabres

Some perspective indeed....

 

[CH1]

Dobes and Newhook catching respective heaters can only take you so far

 

[Krustchev]

Can't see Kapanen re-inventing himself as an NHL bottom sixer. HC Lugano awaits.

Yeah. I didn't notice the Aho line until game 4

Added a number 1 RHD last offseason. Appeared close to adding something big at the deadline. So they won't sit back.

But i still expect the biggest changes the season after

 

[Rolex]

We just need to get a legit 2nd line to take the heat off suzy's line

 

[CH1]

Can't see Kapanen re-inventing himself as an NHL bottom sixer. HC Lugano awaits.

he can be a good 3rd liner with Newhook and Bolduc

I definitely can.

when lots of contracts are off the books

We'll see. I'm not sold . . . yet.

 

[east coast]

they gave up after Game 3.....at least if they would have gone down trying, but they didn't....that's what's frustrating....they just stopped playing

That's the issue. For sure. Might bug us for awhile.

That's not happening... so...

 

[worm]

Yeah. I didn't notice the Aho line until game 4

I didn't notice kotkenemi at all

 

[CH1]

We'll see. I'm not sold . . . yet.

your recency bias is showing

except you need a mean side to play 3rd line....like Andy...like Gally was...even Dano played with physicality....that's not in Kappy's DNA
