I believeeeee he was in a black jersey at practice but it was really hard to tell. From what I saw that thing was 100% broken


Really? Interesting..
I expect thats for lines or just D, the black jerseys. If it was injury/no contact the twitterverse would be all over it

His hand was fine. For the love of god I've seen much worse in the 80's and 90's.
 
Simmonds doesn’t hit and intimidate the opposition anywhere near as much as people seem to think he does. The dude is washed

Yeah it's always weird reading pre game stuff that we need someone like Simmonds in the lineup after last game. Simmonds especially just seems like a non factor every time he's in the lineup... but he can fight pretty good I guess.

Not sure it would make any sort of difference. Knies is pretty green but made more plays in 1 game than Simmonds has all season. We'll see.

They always end up being liabilities because they just can't make plays and they get shelled in shot attempts.

I dont think we need rough and tough for the upcoming game. Just crash the net and win.

Vasilesky I am expecting is hungry and wants to rebound and he's known to do so. The bolts also wants a bounce back, they are also very strong at home.

Simmonds can have a good game, as he did his likely final game and a couple of times this season, but it’s no guarantee he will and there are multiple options up front capable of providing just as much if not more of an impact. On a more consistent basis too.
 
Simmonds would be around to instigate and thats not the right call for this group


We need to push the pace and respond to the physical garbage outside the play but not initiate. Simmonds has a habit of creating issues for no reason

Are you ready !!!!!!!

I don’t mind Wayne Simmonds. He has energy still and he is responsible defensively and with the puck. You don’t see him turning over the puck or completely botching his defensive assignments. He takes costly penalties though, pretty much guaranteed.

if keefe doesn't royally F-UP; and spreads out offense there is going to be that one defensive pair that can be exploited; like bolts did with holl last playoffs and continue to do this playoffs
Agreed

If have wanted Keefe to spread out the offense building a top 9 even before ROR arrived with one $11 mil player per line and build around that.

If Keefe goes back to top 6 with ROR in that mix again, one has to wonder what the hell is he thinking when the mismatches happen by spreading the offense.
