Mayfield turns the puck over every time he touches the puck. He’s fuking horrible.

7 more years

The best is yet to come. He stilll hasn't taken his 'who me?'' penalty yet

He's waiting for the right moment if the Isles finally get some momentum.

Start scoring PP goals won’t need our enforcer MM in the lineup any more to deter cheap shots.

I thought there would be a challenge there, but I'll take it!

PP is working better they seem to put in their opportunities more ( if they hit the net ) if they only could play some defense!

Barzal is playing the best hockey on this team aside from maybe Dobson. He may not be elite but he is an all star and is creating a lot more this year and shooting more too.

I agree. Barzal and Dobson look really good.

Moving him to the wing seems to have worked. Of course he has Bo with him and they seem to play very well together. He has less responsibility in his zone and they seem to look to spring him from the d zone.

Nelson’s line 5v5 needs to pick it up. I think they’re missing engvall actually. Lee seems hungrier around net tonight but Engvall has played well on that line. As you said doesn’t deserve to sit

Very surprised he sat Engvall. That line was playing very well together and with Barzal and Bo you have a one, two punch. As you said I agree they miss him on that line.

Yea he needed someone to use as an example and Engvall was it

Even his pp zone entries are better, before he tried to do it all now he dishes to Nelson if he's pressured

Is it me or is Palmieri on the oce as much as his feet?

Ice seems bad in general. Guys blowing out and pucks bouncing over sticks

I was a big killer of Barzal when he turned over the puck and made stupid plays but he has been driving the offense even more this year and going to the net looking to shoot and as you said shooting. He’s pick up his game for sure and with the chemistry he has with Bo they are fun to watch.

Much better on the forecheck and winning puck battles too

Was just going to post his battle level on that one shift at the end was impressive.
Those are the things you didn’t see a lot.
He would fly by and maybe giv a stick wack to the opponent but he was physically engaged.
Gotta love it.
Hell he even blocked a shot today.

Coming up the third period.

Yeah was just gonna say something to this effect. Beat me to it.

Okay, place your bets on the inevitable..at time of the period does Mayfield take his penalty?

Me: 7:02 left

Tough call on Wally and Holme!!!
