It would be exciting to see every player live up to their potential and the youth develop under that staff

And some structure in all 3 zones and all 3 facets(ES/PP/PK) of the game

Well then, in regards to your last sentence....well done

I’d go
Gallant HC
Carlyle as AC for defense
Oates as AC for the PP

Add Babcock for the mind games, and Hitchcock to alienate players. Then I think we've got a winning formula we all can agree upon.

No anger here...you're the 1 that promotes hate on a daily basis....and in the last 24 hours said you thrive on the misery of others

Some pretty deep reading.

Keenan as a special adviser would really put a bow on it.

When it’s the kids leading the way with some vets as linemates some inconsistencies can be expected. Drives home the point even more so Edler & Tanev’s importance on D. JTM helping Brock pick up his game & help the line on D more than only offence is a good step. Bo is ok on D but Pearson & LE are helping that line. Gaudette gets limited TOI for a reason while he hones his 200’ game. The 4th line could give more shutdown results but it’s been a line in turmoil & changes all season. Line dynamics is probably the biggest challenge coaches face & the players given to them. Patience is still required.

Scoring hasn’t been a problem but it has fizzled now & then. I attribute sloppy passes & some bad luck to that. The PP well we have talked that to death. The PK can be hot & cold.

Yep. Things go out of whack pretty quickly without either them. Hard to upgrade without diminishing the team elsewhere.


I'm not sure I've ever mentioned this but shoot the fecking puck.

You know, it really would.

Thinking on my earlier post on line dynamics & do some projecting towards that end. Here’s my initial ideas for the future in a few years.

JTM Petey Brock
Pearson Bo JV
Hoglander Gaudette Podkolzin
Motte Madden Lind

Hughes Tanev
Edler Myers
OJ Rafferty

The PP has lots of options.
The PK would be a challenge.

My line designs have my own reasoning behind it but there are back up options. Much is predicated upon the kids being puck hounds & feisty as feck.

Bailey from Rafferty and Goldy 1-0

Goldy from Boucher 3-0

11 minuts still to play in the first

Was it last game Bailey had the hat trick? Either way, he's starting to light it up.

Bailey with his third from Rafferty and Goldy again . Identical to the first goal.4-0

From Freidman's 31 Thoughts:

24. I asked Luca Sbisa to give me a quote about the underrated and unappreciated Adam Pelech. Every third word was (bleep). It was so hilarious, I wish I could post it all. Here’s the gist: “Stick is always in the right place. He’s always in the right (bleeping) place. You watch him once, and you say, ‘What’s the (bleeping) deal?’ Nothing stands out. But you watch him 82 (bleeping) times and you realize how (bleeping) good he is.” Sbisa is an international treasure.

Elliott encountered a hockey player who swears a lot and found that to be a remarkably endearing quality?

That didn’t take long - too bad he’ll never get called up

I just threw the radio stream on as he scored. Sounds like DiPietro is playing well.

Fawking Rafferty - get him in a Canucks uni already

Mikey has had a solid year. Mostly up very few downs.

Second best goal of the year. He also had the best goal of the year.

He also has a very good shot. Bailey tipped two of the shots tonight for goals.
