Dougie Hamilton suffered a broken fibula last night. Further evaluation today will determine if surgery is needed. Similar injury that shut down Jordan Staal 1/2 season in 2014.

Funny thing is this goal was given an expected goals value of only 15% by moneypuck.com. I suspect the key factors for that are Vesey’s angle of shot and that the model likely doesn’t have Ben Bishop sailing away in the wrong direction.

Doesn’t this kind of tell you that putting any faith in an analytic like expected goal % (from any given shot)....is just getting a bit ridiculous.

It simply can’t factor in an immeasurable number of intangibles. Sure you could say it’s a usable metric if, and only if, the shooter, goalie, and everything/one in their sphere of influence go exactly as planned....and when does that happen, 25% of the time....less?

McCabe and Girgs are the only movable pieces out of this group.

I'd like to see them try Frolik up with Eichel and put Girgs on 2nd line.

That Girgs with Eichel lasted all of 20 min before Vesey was moved to his lie again. I’m not opposed to Frolik on the top line
But I kinda like Vesey with Eichel

Lazar on pace for 18 goals and 36 points.

Those are solid 3rd line numbers, let alone 4th line numbers.

If we could get Bennett or someone similar, the two of them plus Asplund is basically what you're looking for in a 4th line

That's a lot of analytics. way too much for this old guy. I'll sum it up like this. 1st, pretty good, 2nd ugly and was luck as hell to have the lead, 3rd great road period for the win.

PK is much better..

lazar is my new crush, just wish he could score more but man I LOVE his game.

Although, I DO like what Larry and dare I say, Zemgus have brought this year. Zemgus might hit 15 goals and the down low game they play is great.

I think if he fixes the 2nd line, the bottom 6 (with the guys we have here and coming up, and obviously he'll have to decide which to re-sign) will take care of itself.
