Yeah, Plekanec putting up some points would be nice at some point for sure.

Patches has stepped up. Pleks is supposed to be our second guy before Vanek came here....

This feels like one of our classic.. dominate, get lucky bounces scored against us, can't solve their goalie kinda nights.

Gionta and Plekanec have been fairly horrible for the past 4-5 games.

Gionta once was a great battler in the playoffs but age and those bicep injuries ruined his once deadly shooting. And he's a UFA so it's easy to let him walk. Plekanec, when has he ever shown the kind of clutchness and fortitude Gionta has shown in the playoffs? It's trickier with him cause he's not a FA and provides good goal scoring, faceoff and PK ability. But it's a logjam at centre and Galchenyuk has to be developed down the middle IMO. Pleks could be the odd man out cause I doubt they trade DD (unless it's for another Quebec product) or Eller (cause he'd be the two-way C version of McDonagh coming back to haunt us I'm sure).
