Disagreeing with someone who get a hold of an idea and bites down like a rottweiler on a chew toy and refuses to hear any other opinions is not nuts.
Love you.

No I actually think you guys are crazy this time sorry 😞

It’s not like Patty Kane is walking through the door anytime soon

I get what you are saying but Jimmy Vesey is miscast on the 1st line.

To be fair to TJ, so is Wheeler. The problem is now that's all they've got.

That’s what I’m saying. It’s two options at the moment, one is light years better than the other one. I’m telling you, people don’t like my ideas, you would know

fellas:

Tell me why he shouldn’t? He currently sits 4th on the team in 5 on 5 goals. Wheeler is an anchor, Vesey is the epitome of effort. Let’s waste him away on the 4th line playing 10 minutes a game

Brilliance!

ii read recently that ~30% of the goals jimmy has scored have been game winners. He's clutch if he's nothing else

TJ stop, you are being completely ridiculous. Vessey hasnt morphed into a first line player. He has had a good run as of late. Enjoy his secondary scoring. He will end up with 12 goals for the year, not first line numbers.

This is BECAUSE of his place on the 4th line, TJ!!
There is zero reason to believe he would have the same opportunities and points playing on the top line. If the top line was humming and the 2nd line was in a funk, would you break up the top line to help out the 2nd? This is not so different.
I would rather see them try Brodzinski, who has found an offensive touch of late, on the top line than see any of the lines with chemistry getting broken up. That's an internal option I haven't seen mentioned here.

Whatever man. I’m not apologizing for being excited about a player. It’s the right thing to do. He deserves it

I remember him being hyped up pretty good back then and he didn’t really do much. Maybe he’s late bloomer. Just try him up there ffs is all I’m saying. Nothing permanent

If JBrod got a shot a up there before Vesey, I may actually off myself

You never do, and we don't expect it.
But, it's the right thing to do, IN YOUR OPINION. Your opinion is not fact or law. We can disagree.
I counter that Jimmy does not deserve a promotion to the top line. What he deserves is increased playing time along with the line mates he is having so much success with at the moment. I would bet you will see Lavy ride their hot hand when he feels we need some jump. This is a much more likely path to success than upsetting the balance of the whole forward roster.

He was over hyped because it was August and there was absolutely no other news on the NHL front. He was an exceptional NCAA player, that ended up in a bidding war. Not any sort of burgeoning superstar. The media did him a real disservice that it took him a long time and about 5 teams to get away from it.

It’s simple. For what he’s doing RIGHT NOW for this team, he deserves a chance up there.

And for once can you please just take a joke. You are crazy but I don’t actually mean that you are crazy.

Don't insult my intelligence. You are not joking!!!!
Jimmy is playing great right now. Taking him out of the role/situations he is playing in has more chance of cooling him off than it does sparking something on the top line that, in MY opinion, is already blossoming there.

All I know, this Jimmy Vesey is a different player now. Maybe maturity idk, but I actually think he’s miscast on the 4th line. How bout that poop

I dont know who'd they scratch but I do think that Zac Jones should play one of the games this weekend

he was starting to get into a groove, I don't think its good that he now goes a really long time without playing again
