I mean there’s no reason either one of our top 3 centres shouldn’t work with him.
Mikko just does not look like a 12m player right now imo. Chances are he won’t until next year.

This coaching staff is going to get us swept in the 1st round

Why do they keep f***ing around with Bourque? He is good with Benn and Johnston. Leave it alone. Put Rantanen with Duchene. Granlund with Hintz/Robertson.
Dadonov can go back on the fourth line and Blackwell is trash.
Stop scratching Bourque and playing Blackwell and Back you monkeys.

Not a single defenseman in that lineup who can make an outlet pass. (Yes I know Harley is just getting a rest)
No Miro could be the difference in series 1.

lmfao all U do is cry
Back-Steel-Blackwell looked very engaged last night, what's the logic behind making a switch there?

Mav should play with Benn full time and quit switching that. Get Rants a different center. This coaching staff is clueless. Keep forcing something that clearly doesn't work.

Busey is life
I haven't consulted the spreadsheets and pictograms but my old eyes tell me Biggie Six is 'ok' on outlets. I mean, I don't want him to be 2nd best at it on the blue line. But you are right - they either flip it out (Lindell) or make a panic play up the boards (everyone else).

Oh man now I'm worried they're gonna wear down Harley over the next few weeks by playing him a shit ton and he'll be outta gas when the playoffs start. Hope I'm wrong but damn...
you're right, the coaching staff that's taken this team to the conference finals in b2b years is clueless

I mean, the staff makes constant blunders. They ride their goalie and Heiskanen into the ground constantly, play a defender 4 mins in the playoffs.. and then wonder why the tank is empty come conference finals.
Now they are doing it again with Harley.
yeah you're right- they are the worst and im fed up watching a team that is sitting at 3rd in the league in points. Deboer if you're reading this - please consider consulting more with message board posters

I am once again reminding everyone the Stanley Cup Champion Florida Panthers went 3-7-2 between March 14th & April 6th.
Better to play like s**t now than in a month.

it's funny how the negative nancy's will talk all the shit in the world about how bad nill is and the moves he makes.
but out of the other side of their mouths talk shit about pdb and the staff bc they don't know how to use this great roster.
can't fathom how miserable it must be to be so damn negative.
to be fair, mrH, you're not as bad as some others, but damn

I think frustration is building from posters because the team has looked disjointed for weeks now when we are hoping adding a top 20 player would make us even better. Coaching staff doesn't seem to have any solutions over the last 3 weeks and even Pete blew up after the game last night so it's not only fans.
Sure, the team is in a good spot in the standings so we should be happy.. but over the last month playing against good teams I think most fans are seeing this team could easily get bounced first round.
Expectations are sky high when you make back to back conference finals that even a stretch of bad play in the regular season is going to be scrutinized.

Suter will never be scratched
I'm wondering if Robertson - Hintz - Rantanen is the best use of this new toy. Rantanen is one of the very best goal scorers in the league, and he's being put on a line with a shoot-first LW and a center who isn't exactly known as a setup guy.
These are now the three best goal scorers on the team... all on the same line. It feels like a strange way to use them. Most teams would spread them out.

Not everything on a fan message board is to be taken literal. Even the greatest coaches can make mistakes, they are human after all. When I say they are clueless, it's definitely hyperbole. Just like if I said Jason Robertson is the worst skater on the planet. I don't literally mean he's the worst skater on the planet. He's probably one of the best skaters on the planet if you want to remove the extreme exaggeration.
"Matt Dumba sucks!" Well actually he's in the NHL and one of the best hockey players in the world. Both things can be a bit true.
Rants doesn't work with Hintz. Mav plays well with Benn. The Dallas Stars have an amazing coaching staff and I wish they would reconsider these lines. Is that better?
