Why do I get the feeling that AV doesn't like Henrik?

It's probably just the bad start and not trusting Henrik yet but ummm.... probably just tough love.

On the other hand, he compliments RIchards on his play (?) and calls him a great player (?) ?

He compliments henrik all the time.
 
Hehe, a bit OT but did anyone see the quote from Zucc in what he told Hedman during the scrum in the Tampa game?

"I told him to watch out and that I have KOd him twice before. I told him that it would be embarrassing if I KOed him again infront of his home crowed. Hedman is a chicken."

(They are old teammates)

That is pretty funny :p If Zucc actually did KO someone, this board would loose their **** pretty hard
 
First let me say I'm happy we were able to pull out a win. Florida outplayed us but we still fought back and got the 2 points so taht was a good character win. However I still dont get why AV sits kreider in OT once again. yes i understand Kreider didnt shoot much however he did set up nash with some great open shots and he was one of the few guys trying to etsablish a forecheck. Also he is our top goal scorer. I mean i understand Pouliat has played great lately but Kreider needs to get a shift before him in OT and definetly before miller. I mean AV has no problem playing him 17-20 minutes every game but he wont play him 4 on 4 where he would be even better suited with his speed
 
A lot of people are questioning this. Not sure if it's been brought up in the post game though. He's the coach. I'm sure he's got his reasons, but it's pretty obvious Kreider should get a shift or two in OT.

I just think you want a player that is a little more comfortable and responsible with the puck than Kreider. Give him a little time and I am sure we will see him play 4 on 4.

It's a bit delicat to play 4 on 4. You don't only face less defenders, you also has less options. The key to a 4 on 4 is about picking your spots really. Kreider is still a rookie. And I do actually think we have good options 4 on 4.
 
I honestly think Moore is the same player, but a bit better.

I knew he didn't have much offense, but didn't know it was this ridiculous, though.

Moore used to chip in w PTS but now after a ur off he just looks like a defensive guy. Let him walk as a ufa or deal him for a pick by the deadline.
 
Tim Thomas was very good last night, we strugled to figure him out..

He had a good night last night. He saw the puck well, was positionally sound and was athletic enough as he usually tries to be. The difference was that we weren't able to get to rebounds. Step forked one wide, Zucc had his stick lifted, they controlled net front with a few big bodies and for the most part, we didn't have enough net front traffic.

I don't think this is on Dom Moore. It's not like our other guys are scoring. His role on the team really limits his ability to play to score goals and make plays. He's playing with a god damn Brian Boyle out there. Put together a line of Crosby Boyle and Ovi, Boyle still wouldn't figure into secondary assists.

Put more Dom Moore type players with Dom Moore, they can get something going. THey've been heavenly better as of late and Dorsett isn't shy about trying to get the puck or himself to the net so maybe Dorsett and Moore can improve in the second half.

It blows my mind how Boyle ever managed to score 21 goals.
 
Heard the Girardi goal on the radio, didn't catch the shootout though.

Gotta love Hank keeping the Rangers in a game :yo:

Means nothing if we don't keep winning. Friday will be a big test.

Hit the post with a rising backhander last night, is bigger and stronger, better forechecker, backchecker, better on faceoffs and PK than Powe...
 
Moore has some skill. He should have more points than he does but he's been snake bitten as all hell
