Yup. I love Stepans all around game but if you need a defensive forward 3 on 3 you are doing it wrong.

Yeah, I would add him too, and Buch when he comes back. Only defenseman that should see 3 on 3 McDonagh and Skjei

Good trios there. Stepan has no business being out there in OT, especially with the ice last night.

You guys should just avoid trying to match up against the Pens in OT, stick to regulation or enduring till the shootout.

Hell I would add Pirri to the list as well.

I just don't think going to a shootout is a plus anymore.

Well... I'd prefer us to get some individual points for those stats and poop... but sure, you are more than welcome to forfeit the next two games.

We can all just drink and talk about corsi and poop instead.

I think you guys should try to lose all of your games in regulation. It's bold, outside the box thinking.

Jan, as mush as we would all love to see Pirri promoted to the 3rd line. I have a feeling Fast will be a permanent fixture on the 3rd line going forward. AV loves him some Fast. he had Fast on the 2nd unit at one point last game. I personally think AV is to blame for the recent losses. He keeps playing with the lines instead of just going to what has worked.

Vesey - Step - Nash = has worked
Miller - Hayes - Grabner = Has worked
Pirri - Kreider - Zib - Mcd - Buch on PP = has worked..

He seems to be juggling the lines up so often the players cant get any chemistry going.

Could have sworn that one was Pepper

Do you see Girardi staying put all year on the top pairing?
- mrn22

I could see Skjei moving up to top pairing

but I could never see Klein and Girardi as a pairing

Yeah... "Its a bold strategy Cotton..." As much as it wouldn't surprise me for him to talk to himself, preeeeetty sure he didn't in the movie

In classic Rivalry spirit I will post this
