more practice moves...Yerdon on the Sabres pp units:

PP1: Eichel-Skinner-Reinhart-Mittelstadt-Dahlin

PP2: Rodrigues-Sheary-Thompson-Okposo-Ristolainen

- Michael Pachla


Now if mitts cant produce with PP time and actual 2nd line talent then bash him all you want

>Actual 2nd line talent

He has a 1st liner and a 4th liner. I suppose the average could generously be called a 2nd line.

it would help, but it's more than that...smith skates with a sense of purpose every shift, with Nylander it seems like every so often...will never say smith's skill-level is better than nylander's, because it isn't, but not too far off and makes the most of what he's been given
- Michael Pachla


It would more than help. It’d actually unleash Nylander’s sniper talents.

Not to far off? Ya man that’s nonsense. Nylander is faaaaaaar better than Smith. Since Taylor took over coaching in Rochester they have literally tried to make Nylander more of a two way player rather than just what he’s been his whole life. Which is a scoring winger. Nylander is one dimensional.

I’m praying for a multipoint game from Okposo on Tuesday night to see this blog explode.

Hes played well, I think moving him to the 3rd line will help the team. Maybe not his stats....

Sam is one of the few guys who can add a spark

The fact that someone on Facebook thinks Ottawa would take Sheary and Okposo for Stone really hurts my brain.
