    Ouellet Debut Tonight

    Pretty sure the lines are: Zetterberg - Datsyuk - Abdlekader Bertuzzi - Franzen - Alfredsson Tatar - Weiss - Cleary Miller - Andersson - Tootoo (with the possibility of Samuelsson playing)

    Any new Helm Updates?

    The Habs have guys dropping like flies right now. Prust (out 4 weeks) Pacioretty (out 3) Brierre (concussion) They could use a big, hard shooting , Stanley Cup winning, PP point specialist. Right? RIGHT?

    Ouellet Debut Tonight

    So: Dekeyser - Quincey Kindl - Lashoff Ouellet - Smith ? Good job Babcock has the last change. He's going to have to manage those pairings really well.

    Don't worry, he's probably not basing his comment on anything.

    McLeod suspended 5 games for hit on Kronwall

    In person hearing? At least 5. Lapierre's hit on Boyle? 10. Kronwall turned a bit. I'm saying 7 games. 8 max.

    Mantha is crushing the Q, 4 goals and an assist tonight

    Saw him play tonight. 1. His team is bad. 2. The scouting reports are spot on as far as I could see. He's got NHL IQ and tools right now, but his compete level is an issue.

    Lineup Crunch: Who's going?

    Patience. That would be another way to put it. There's not a more patient GM out there. Sometimes to a fault. Babcock would probably fire himself before Holland had a chance.

    Accidental or intentional hit by Brouwer?

    Brouwer? Ex Hawk. Imma go with intentional

    Rumor: trade talks btw EDM & BUF

    Yes. Oilers need to start trading from their strengths to address their weaknesses. And they need to start winning soon. Edit: Doesn't make much sense to trade for Vanek, IMO. Scoring shouldn't be an issue in Edmonton.

    3 in a row.... I'll take it!

    While I love the hell out of Nyquist, and think Tatar desrves a spot, those two + Weiss can not match the skill of the Hawks 2nd line. But is that your answer? Goose - Weiss - Tatar are good enough to be our 2nd line this year? I want to hear you say it.

    3 in a row.... I'll take it!

    I remember a time when LGWs was dominated by people who complained that the Wings weren't big or gritty enough. I have to ask: do you really think that a 2nd line of Nyquist - Weiss - Tatar has enough size to consistently get it done against other teams 2nd line and 2nd pairing D-men?

    The D. It's a young group of defensemen.

    Lineup Crunch: Who's going?

    He said "seems". You made it sound like he came down from a mountain with a stone tablet, proclaiming gospel. But mostly, have some respect for the mods.

    Lineup Crunch: Who's going?

    Yup. Good ol' Harold. Ranting again. WTF are you talking about?

    Lineup Crunch: Who's going?

    Eaves willl be the odd man out. Has to be. Glendening will go back to GRs. Miller - Helm - Tootoo with Sammy and Tatar as healthy scratches.

    Filppula to Tampa 5 yr $5 million

    Comparing styles? Filpulla "looks" like the better hockey player. He's has better high-end speed. He's more graceful. Better hands. More patience with the puck. And guess why? Because he plays on the perimeter where he has room. Weiss looks sloppier and more chaotic/jumbled out there because he's trying to make plays in the slot and around the net. The "hard" areas. I'll take Weiss' blue collar skill over Filpulla's photoshoot finess anyway. And just wait until the playoffs.....

    Good. Never like Hamhuis. He's a punk. Hamhuseless.
