Let's get back on track.

Yeah unfortunately Dellandrea struggled against the Canes. Not gonna let him play through it it seems - although this makes sense too

 

[serp]

I like that the coaching staff is not afraid to play Oettinger. I still have some PTSD from the year where the Tippett staff played Turco to death because they hated all the backup options .

As long as its just a small break i'm ok with Dellandrea sitting out. It's a very condenced schedule and its his first year as a pro . Give him a break when he needs it.

 

[Kcb12345]

Poor Oettinger. Wonder if they're hoping he will just cover more net for Laine's one timers

 

[serp]

We'll see who takes the last spot in the lineup . Either Dowling or they call someone up together with L'Esperance

 

[Satan]

I love giving Oettinger the start here

What is Laine's production against the Stars when shooting on Kari vs anyone else?

[Dynamite Time]

Dammit you know Laine is going to be running tonight but at the same time a good early season game after this weekend in Carolina.

Not a bad way to manage our youngs

I think he was a goal per game against us last year.

 

[M88K]

I think he was a goal per game against us last year.

3g in 4 games 5 points though

 

[serp]

Big part of Laines production against the Stars is from the 16-17 season . Last two seasons when the Stars didn't suck it wasn't that outrageous.

Kinda feeling betrayed by all the Finns rooting for CBJ because of a single player, versus the "Honorary Team Finland" the Stars have been running for ~25 years...

I hope Patrik scores 5 and Dallas wins 6-5, is that ok?

Also known as filthy casuals.

Few more achievements for Miro and they’ll be flooding into the ’wagon

 

[WhoahNow]

Pavelski the goat

 

[ugrakarma]

Pavelski has slick hands.

 

[WhoahNow]

Stars actually have some shots in the first period. Nice

 

[MrHeiskanen]

A first period where we are actually shooting the puck.

Im shook.

 

[Kcb12345]

Good start so far. Pavelski with the nice deflection

 

[BrettHullsToe]

Not sure how much it's the Stars starting better vs. Columbus doesn't skate like Carolina, but I like what I'm seeing so far.
