the pairs Harley-Miro and Esa-Tanev managed 1.73 and 1.93 xGA/60 respectively, I think they’ll be fine against the Avs too.This series (and a potential WCF against Edmonton) are why I wish they had spent the end of the season putting together a Miro-Tanev pair. You could've hard matched at home using our 1 seed status against MacKinnon/Rantanen with the best combination to try to contain them. Something has to change with the current grab-bag defense roulette wheel because it's going to get exposed against top-heavy teams.
You need 2 pairs against mackinnon. He plays 25 to 28 a night, so he's out there pretty much every 2nd shift. So you need a top 4 to limit him.
Lindell-Tanev for his O zone shifts and Harley-Heiskanen for his D zone shifts where we need to match his transition speed.
Also think suter will be fine against him in defensive zone faceoff situations. Suter will just need to avoid those open ice breakout defensive situations.
Will be a key game of chess those matchups
Would be really f***ing nice to win a game one once in a while
PM sentI won't use my tickets on Thursday and will put them up for sale. I figured I would offer them to my friends on HF first. If anyone is interested in them, they are Section 117, Row W, Seats 1-2. They are just above that ships railing, and the seats in front are 6 feet below, so there will be very few times your view will be obstructed. In the Stars shoot 2X end, about at the faceoff dots.
I'm offering them for my STH price of $370 for the pair. If interested, PM me off line and we will figure out the transfer.
Although I won't be able to go anyway, you are a gentleman and scholar for offering them here for cost. LegendaryI won't use my tickets on Thursday and will put them up for sale.

Can't believe this hasn't happened at some point. Load it up.I need a top line of Robertson-Johnston-Stankoven ASAP
Is Hintz playing hurt?
