[Aaaarrgghh]

I loved Evason's little smile here after he said it was news to him that Kent Johnson was skating.

Still wish we would have traded for Necas .. 18p in 10 games this season

There's no guarantee he does that here, not to mention what we would have had to give up to get him. Not really worth the future of the club considering we're getting damn good production from our own top 6 right now.

Expanding on what @CBJx614 said, let's also wait and see how Lindstrom looks when he's back in Medicine Hat, because the rumour was that the price was pick #4.

You'll never guess which player Necas has had the most success with so far this year.

I'll give some hints. He's a recent Jacket.

His name rhymes with Shmeric Shrobinson.

That line combination is not likely to last but it also makes sense that Brind'Amour could make great use of a forechecker with wheels like that.

Remember the Robinson - Domi - Bjorkstrand line under Torts in 2020/21 season. Coaches like him or Brind'Amour know to use similar type of players.

I actually think Jiricek could work on a pair with Harris. However JJ plays a decent role on the PK and seems stapled into his spot. So that’s why it’s just Harris and Jiricek rotating

Stapled to the precise starting point on the ice when his shift began? LOL.
I am generally glad JJ is back but he is even slower than I feared. Positioning is a great thing, but you've got to be able to beat the opposition to the spot every once in a while!

i haven't been able to watch all of the games this year (and likely won't be watching any of the west coast ones because i'm an old fart now) but to me jack has been visibly the worst player on the ice every time he's been out there.

obviously they're not going to break up the werenski-provorov pair, but at this point i'd rather see christiansen-jiricek as the third pair, and give jordan harris a shot with severson.

I had assumed that JJ would be part of the rotation.

Necas is playing with Eric Robinson and Roslovic!

 

[DankoCBJ]

I would honestly shake top6 lines like this

1. Fantilli - Monahan - Marchenko
2. Voronkov - Sillinger -Chinakhov

Not ideal to put Fantilli to wing but lines we have arent really working. Fantilli had some chemistry with Marchenko (who doesnt?) last year and that second line was mostly great last year too.

We should give it a try!
