GDT: CBJ vs. Chicago - The No Clever Header Thread - 2/25 7 PM

[CBJ goalie]

I'm excited to see Bemstrom back in....hope he's motivated!

 

[Double-Shift Lasse]

I think I would have chosen those exact four lines.

I don't think I would have chosen any of those pairings.

 

[Kellen]

I know he hasn’t earned it yet - it man I’d love to see Domi take that first line center spot - just to see. I liked how it looked last game with Foligno there - but give Domi a shot.

Pregame Thoughts:

Riley Nash needs to sit.
Never thought I'd be so happy to see 8 and 3 back together.
Savard getting a pass for his meltdown is annoying.
More Carlsson on the power play.
I thought Harrington was playing better than Del Zotto - I blame him for some of the defensive collapse this year.
We need to win in regulation or it's a loss.
The depth at center is an absolute joke. They're all third line guys, at best.

I'd be all for it if he could show something, he was so bad last game, I dont know how anyone could justify it other than he makes 5+ million a year.

 

[The Jones Zone]

as bad as Domi has been I would still flip him and Robinson

otherwise I'm good with these lines

watch Foligno be great the rest of the season heading into UFA and get overpaid again

 

[Jive Pawnbroker]

I'm just hoping for a defensive effort good enough not to be set to the music of Yakety Sax.

But just in case:

[Dessert Nights]

So is Roslo going to take any face-off unless Jenner gets kicked out?

Having Laine, Foligno, Bjorkstrand, Werenski and Jones on the ice should lead to some extended possession in the offensive zone. On the other hand, Jenner, Roslovic and Atkinson will be the most dangerous first few seconds after they enter the OZ.

Right. When you're playing like Domi has been playing, it ain't a linemate issue, it's much more fundamental than that.

And he just spent weeks playing with Bjorkstrand, it's not like we don't know what that looks like.

 

[majormajor]

I like the lines.

Carlsson on the PP? I hope not. The only thing he did out there was wander around, Roslovic ended up playing the point in his stead and teed up a Bjorkstrand goal.

13-96-29 didn’t hold for long

 

[LetsGOJackets!!]

I heard Torts stayed away from practice as he thought the players were tired of him. I know as a fan I'm tired of him. Give us a starting lineup & then keep it the same for 2 weeks. I guarantee better results, how could it be worse? Let the guys get used to each other for 2 seconds. I have my fingers crossed we get a regulation win.. but who knows??

Why does Nash need to sit? He’s solid

Carlsson on the powerplay? He handles the puck like a grenade and can’t shoot. No thanks. I’d rather have savard on the powerplay

 

[MissADD]

Should I watch tonight? literally everything last game when i wasn't watching. i don't want to cost us a point or maybe even 2

Agree about Nash. Granted he’s not a guy who scores, but he’s always in position, he doesn’t get trapped in his zone and is one of the most defensively response Jackets. He’s the guy who keeps the 4th line together. He’s also useful on the PK

 

[ViD]

Gotta take Kane out of this game somehow, slip some laxatives into his Gatorade maybe? Without him, the Hawks will just forfeit the game right away

 

[ViD]

Savard - Carlsson ? Yikes

 

[MoeBartoli]

As I said in the prior game I hate watching Kane because he’s so good....Obviously said tongue in cheek. Kane would be such a difference maker for the Jackets and I can only dream of him in Union Blue. Along with Bread, he’s one of my favorite guys to watch - when not playing against us.

 

[MoeBartoli]

Savard - Carlsson ? Yikes

Their speed equivalency should allow them to move in tandem.

 

[ViD]

So, it happened, Bob has better stats than Korpi.

 

[ViD]

Foligno just got embarrassed by Kane

 

[DJA]

Why did everyone allow Kane to skate in untouched?

 

[Vapaatunnus]

Cling! Unfortunately not to goal.
