In the playoffs at home they can avoid the 3rd pairing.. it will be surviving road games w those guys... so on the road i would actually prefer to see bjornfot and walker as the 3rd pair...they will be seeing the top lines and need foot speed more than anything.. Walker defends better than Durzi by a little bit.. a little more organized.
agreed, he's exactly what this team needed and he's providing value in spades. if this is his "normal" we need to get him extended asap
absolutely, no excuse for not playing bjornfot besides "size" but size don't mean shit when it's THAT slow
He is a professional.. does everything properly out there - no flash. Reminiscent of W Mitchell.
thankfully fox finally touched on it but imo it really is THAT important having righty/lefty on the correct side for a change
It’s almost like LEFT dman means something. And not having a sieve in goal goes a long way too.
i get the impression that deal wasn't on the table for LA
Ottawa undoubtedly got a better deal. Unfortunately what stoped the Kings was they needed to move money out and Arizona being the cheap terrible organization they are, couldn’t make it work for that reason. Obviously Blake could have moved out some players if he was smart enough to make cap space but he didn’t. There is also no doubt that Chychrun is a monster. There’s just a bunch of bitter Kings fans who were doing as much as they could to downplay his skill just because the value stated was a lot.
