gcom007 1,465 Report post Posted May 4, 2010 2 McLellan, 0 Babcock. I'm starting to think we let the wrong coach go. Well, there's been a contingency suggesting that for awhile considering the defense went to hell after he left and all... But yeah, this is not a good sign to me, and I don't even mean that like a Lebda hater would... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heroes of Hockeytown 694 Report post Posted May 5, 2010 Lebda had a pretty good game, I thought. But he only ended up playing 9 minutes and somehow Ericsson got 14. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hossa4Life 4 Report post Posted May 5, 2010 i just dont understand how this is the change that he thought needed to be made. O babcock what are you thinking. Put lilja in at forward before williams. GOD just sit williams Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
asmith18 3 Report post Posted May 5, 2010 I understand the move and agree with the commentors, Wings need speed and we don't have much of it. Yes Helm, Filppula have good breakaways. Obviously Zata & Datsyuk are fast. Lilja is great for size yes, but speed not so much. Changing up the lines might give us a spark to help win. It's worth a try.

Wing Across The Pond 196 Report post Posted May 5, 2010 I was going to post something about this before the game last night. I watched a pre-game interview with Lids and Lilja was sitting in the back strapping his knee up in a brace. Only had it on the left though so wondering if this was partly the choice for the change. Sorry forgot to post this and then remembered during the game. http://video.nhl.com/videocenter/console?catid=15&id=68465 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
