Jacksoni 418 Report post Posted December 27, 2016 Thanks for the GDT, much appreciated, looks good. 3 games in 3 nights with a core of elder statesmen. Oh, brother.. I guess Z and Kronwall is going to sit in game 2. Do we have anyone noticeable returning? All that aside, we should get this one at home. Just bump Eichel and O'Reilly a lil, let them sweat it. It's what I'd do right from the get-go. Don't be alarmed by the forecheck, just play the d-to-d pass and then play it out nicely and all things Red will be real fine. 1 NerveDamage reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Abby, Helm and Green are expected to be back soon, so perhaps we'll have that. Oreilly is out due to an apendectomy 5 minutes ago, GoalieManPat said: Wheres "Have a ginger ale!"

However, in all bluntness, that removes a huge weapon from their arsenal and for that I am grateful.

kliq 3,755 Report post Posted December 27, 2016 Nick Jensen a career AHL'er is on our first pairing? I understand the logic of putting our worst guy with our best guy, but doesn't that give us a glaring hole on our first pairing? If I am on Buffalo's top line, I would be loving this.

Eichel has this weird stance/posture when skating where hes like always standing up straight. I mean i guess it works for him, but he looks like a weirdo curly headed bender out there. Too bad ROR is out. Hes my fav on that team. Rarely ever makes mistakes, well rounded text book hockey, no flash. Edited December 27, 2016 by ChristopherReevesLegs Double post.
