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.Still wish we would have traded for Necas .. 18p in 10 games this season
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.Still wish we would have traded for Necas .. 18p in 10 games this season
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.
Stapled to the precise starting point on the ice when his shift began? LOL.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
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.Stapled to the precise starting point on the ice when his shift began?

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!

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.
Necas is playing with Eric Robinson and Roslovic!Still wish we would have traded for Necas .. 18p in 10 games this season
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!
I think it actually is ideal to have Fantilli tried as a scoring line wing, it's not like he can't go back to center later on when he's more mature. I think he'd be a lethal winger with those two.
That second line hasn't played together much before, if ever, but I don't see why they wouldn't be tried. Of course I'd have Voronkov be the center but that's an old hobbyhorse.
