A bit less of a risk-taker, too.

Streit is the total package when it comes to offense from the blue line.

They really don't have any other option but to run the umbrella. They don't have a right handed shot that's good enough to be on the PP.

It's a shame because they are going to allow their fair share of SHG this season.

Yep! Nice job looking for the trailer. He's very smart offensively, it's just that his bread and butter is more so his shot then his pass.

Absolutely. Way more of a trigger man than a playmaker

Amazing what happens when you have a 4th line that can actually score. Both goals generated by that line. They look really good so far. So has the 1st line imo

They've been really good tonight. Good combination of speed, skill, and grit.

The umbrella is the best powerplay we just need Streit to be smarter with pinches and Voracek to take on the defense burden.

Lazy old Fraude did a great job on that 2-on-0.

It's effective for scoring goals, but the layout makes them susceptible to odd man rushes the other way. That's just the nature of the beast and the risk you take.

Flyers allowed more SHG than any other team last season.

I feel Berube should have experimented with pairs all preseason instead of forcing chemistry. We might not have a legit number one guy but we do have interchangeable parts.

Grossmann-Coburn
MacDonald-Schenn
MacDonald-Streit

These pairs have had some success.

Woooooo extra hockey!!!

Don't necessarily care if they win as I think they played a really good game today. The forcheck was working well all game by all lines. Especially the 1st and 4th line. Encouraging game for the most part.

He's likely gonna end up shuffling pairs all season anyhow.
