I would be down for a jokinen white swap. Anyone know his contract situation? I know he's kinda struggling this year

Honestly both should be on this team. Hudler >>>> Sammy

I think injuries are a huge reason why this team is struggling. But I think some of it has to do with coaching and the way we use our resources (resourcing being players) in the system. If this team was totally healthy I would love to see the lineup look like this. Mule- Z- Brunner Fil-Dats- Bert Nyquist- Helm- Tatar Abby- Anderson-Tootoo Emdog, Mursak Defense I would have Kronwall, Big E, Smith, and White in the lineup for sure. The others are a toss up. Go with the hot hand. As well my PP lines would be... Nyquist- Datsyuk- Mule Brunner- Kronwall Tatar- Fil- Bert Smith- Zetterberg

Ya. I just don't get how we all see it, we all talk about, we all know it, but yet we still see guys like cleary and Abby play and anchor down are best player. It disgust me, and it has to disgust pavel. Pavel doesn't even need a sniper he just needs a solid player like Fil to make plays with. If we don't have this top 9 when healthy I'm gonna snap! So damn frustrated with holland, and babs way of setting this team up. Plus with this lineup we are actually saving money towards the cap.

for f*** sakes get cleary and abby off pavels line. Its disgusting to even watch. So pissed at this crap that were seeing. Your up 2-0 three minutes in it should be a god damn blowout. F***!!

simply pathetic

I totally agree with you on cleary and Sammy. How would you feel of a top 9 of.. Mule- zetterberg- brunner Filppula- datsyuk- bertuzzi Nyquist- helm- Tatar I feel like that top 9 stacks up with the rest of the contenders in the league

Right there with you on that one lol. Worst thing of it all is that this isn't a fantasy top six where we have to acquire great players for scraps. We have all these guys ready to play. We could actually have a sick top six. But babs plays cleary and abdelkader with are best player. Disgusting!!!

I totally agree on the fact that Sammy should be bought out because its a business and he is eating a huge chunk of cap while being hurt all year. As far as lines, if we were to not have to worry about who's waiver exempt and who isn't up front I'd go with.... Franzen- zetterberg- brunner Fil- datsyuk- bertuzzi Nyquist- helm- Tatar Abby- emdog- tootoo This is assuming we're healthy in which we will probably never be. I also may get flamed for having emdog in but you can't argue that the guy is playing solid hockey this year especially alongside tootoo. Add in abdelkader and that line will work the hell out of you. First line has proven to be good. Second line is a solid line and Fil has played his best hockey with pavel this year. Third line is just wow! So much speed an skill. I feel like it could be the best third line in hockey. Fourth line is very solid and I just think they could wear oppositions down with there forechecking ability. My god I love tootoo

Would not hate this line whatsoever! I just wanna see youth, skill, and speed in the top six!

God I wonder what datsyuk could have done tonight with actually linemates

Wish we could actually see a relatively healthy lineup

Oh ya what's new

Pathetic

I wish Sammy was out and Gus was in his place

Huge dub!!!

This!!

Will be interesting to see where Anderson plays in the lineup

Gus baby!!!

What's Helen's status tonight?

Wooooo!

Frustrating to say the least!

Why is helm out?

I was just thinking today about kindl as he is coming back for Friday. Anyways I was thinking about last year and was wondering what there take was on him from the start of the season up until the deadline. If I remember correctly I thought he was playing well and progressing solidly up until the deadline (or until that St. Louis game on the road, we won in SO) But I felt our d last year was playing great until we brought in Quincey, and Kindl basically didn't play. I could be totally wrong but I had nothing to complain about with kindl up until around the deadline.

I agree looks way better! Defense still looks awful, but what can ya do
