We're a better team when Wallmark is in our top nine. He's very, very, very underrated. He, Nino and Necas were excellent tonight. If he keeps it up, we won't miss Haula as much. The definition of a 200-foot player.
We'll still miss Haula's NFP (Net front presence...) No one else seems to like parking it down there to get the greasy and dirty goals.

I don't know what it is about the Blackhawks but this team brings it and gets victories against them, they're good we're bad and vice-versa it doesn't matter. Maybe we just play them every game from now on.

It's true. One of the most complete games of the year thus far was our first game against them.

Tonight was looking good as well until whatever the hell that last 10 minutes was.

They're obviously a better team with a healthy Haula, but I can tell that there's a real next-man up mentality with these group of players. It'll take a guy like Wallmark a long way, even though he may need to be traded to get a 3rd line center gig full-time. There's plenty of teams out there who can't draft depth to save their life who would love to have Wallmark in a couple of years.

If Nino needs a matchup with Minnesota to get him going, maybe Dundon could request the NHL move one of those games to early October next season?

OR

Having Wallmark establish himself as a No. 3 center means we can move Aho to the wing.

Adam being Adam.

This ignores two things: 1) Mrazek could have been replaced by a shooter-tutor for the first 53 1/2 minutes and still had a shutout, and 2) Mrazek should have had the second goal.

Yes, the guy made some big stops down the stretch, but not enough to earn first star.

He was clearly the first star of the latter portion of the third period.

Disagreeing with Sara leads to three different scenarios:
1. I am still right
2. Twitter is a hell hole
3. The hoards of high horse D bags coming to her defense.

Not sure she’s wrong tho. Hawks turned it on big time when it got to 3-2 but the Canes were very lazy and complacent to let it get to 3-2.

Also she’s a hockey babe so ya gonna probably side with her most of the time

It’s tough, because she put up with a lot of shit during the whole Aho/Montreal saga. And I think that’s led her to be more willing to “weaponize” her Twitter following. It’s a bad look, but most of the time, it’s against people who do more than just “disagree.”

And it’s not just her who does it. I got into it with Maniscalco over Twitter a week or two ago and quickly regretted it. He didn’t do it intentionally, but anytime you disagree with a “personality”, their followers are going to join in.

He is completely miscast as a 4th liner, which I think they know. He was always the Haula insurance policy. I think if he’s out long term he comes back as a wing with Staal and they run a shutdown line that gives up zero.

I don't know if it's subconscious or more of a calculated move, but people with verified accounts tend to quote tweet people from their replies which populates in their feed. Instead of just replying to the comment in the thread. It tends to stoke the flames a bit. Sometimes it leads to funny interactions and people getting dunked on who deserve it. Other times it's just annoying.

Can a finn please clarify how do you say Luostarinen ? I'm saying Luh-Os-TAH-ree-nen and i'm pretty sure that's not right
Start with saying SOUL backwards, and continue from there.

You seem to be very close actually, just say -re- instead of -ree- as Finn names have press on the first syllable only.

Finn syllable breaks go like "Luos-ta-ri-nen".
