e_prime 1,936 Report post Posted November 21, 2016 (edited) Both edges of the same sword. Alexey needed to sit for a bit. I don't like anyone getting injured but he needs to get it together. Then work his way back into the lineup and put it back together. I think he's got the skills, but it's not working right now and he wasn't getting sat otherwise. As others have mentioned elsewhere, I really have NO IDEA why he didn't sit prior to this injury. EDIT: Also, why can I not embed tweets properly?

krsmith17 7,191 Report post Posted November 21, 2016 Yeah, I hate to see anyone get injured, but Marchenko should have been sitting weeks ago. Glad it's not a serious injury, but think this is a good thing for the Red Wings... 2 kliq and Wingnut1989 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wingnut1989 165 Report post Posted November 21, 2016 I kinda feel like the game has evolved away from defensemen that are really defensive and dont bring anything else. 1 krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
