Game as boring as score indicates? Might have gotten a 3rd goal with another 15 shots or so...dropped back down 28th @ 9.2%

M1 magic number 8 points
M2 magic number 5

ill go ahead and count the L for NJ now that it is 6-0.

Being up 1 RW and up 3 points with 6 games to go for us and 5 games to go for them is huge. We effectively reduced the magic number by another point but I wont count that yet.

Haven’t been able to watch any hawkey this weekend. How we feeling about a 7 game series with the Islanders?

Was it a full on dump and chaser both ways the whole game?

Is TT ded?

Can either of these teams score 3 (non-empty net) goals against each other?

Good to see them pull off a couple of wins and hang onto that Metro lead. I think it’s a necessity if they want to have a chance of making the ECF.

Starting to feel bad for Aho. Finally was able to get away from being paired with Jarvis all year and now he's stuck with Martinook.

We have got to get him some help this summer. Right now it seems like we have a glut of 2nd liners and nobody really able to take hold of a top line spot

Well they have 3 top 6 guys out right now so that’ll happen.

Koko had Noesen and Poolparty….

Oh I know what you're saying, but I honestly don't know if Turbo, Svech, or Patches are/were legit 1st liners this year. 2nd liners, absolutely, but I dunno how many would be legit 1st liners on most other teams.

It’s interesting to see Jarvis placed on the PK and the 4th line. He’s been a bit of a loosey-goosey, waterbug type of player to this point. This feels like Rod challenging him to see the ice differently, round out his game, play within different constraints. I’m guessing that he sees potential for Jarvis to become something closer to an Aho type of contributor in the long run.

f***sake dude. First of all, Joe said top six guys, so you're already taking the goalposts for a running start. Svech was on pace for a 70 point season before his knee died, and that was with a 2 month goal drought. Patches was mostly dead all season, but when he was slightly alive he managed 3 goals in 5 games. The past several seasons he was hovering around a point per game. I think it's fair to call him a first line winger. Turbo has had an admittedly shit year, and is only on pace for 47 points over a full season, but if you look at his body of work over the last half decade, he still averages 67 points per 82 games, which is decent production for a top six forward which, reminder, was the claim you originally responded to.
