4th line center was just injured…Not going to happen with the WJC coming up so soon, but maybe soon upon returning.
I would just Sit Sunny and Play Joseph with Saad and Schenn.
Jake-Thomas-Buch
Bolduc-Holloway-Kyrou
Saad-Schenn-Joseph
Toro-Faksa-Walker
If Faksa is out due to getting cut I would Put Sunny between those two.

I thought what made the play was Faulk going wide as RT started out. Faulk opened up room

I seriously doubt Faksa misses any time.
A LOT of ice and maybe a few stitches and he should be good to go.
He's a hockey player, not a soccer player.

Great to see your best players playing like your best players. That's a sexy looking core.

On the other hand, let's not break what's working. Maybe he stinks on FOs in practice.

I hope so. I don't think I've ever seen a player get a vasectomy in the middle of a game.

I don't want Jake in the top 6. I'm sorry, but he doesn't generate plays at a high enough level (yet) to be playing with Thomas and Buch. I'd rather see Saad on the top line in that scenario.

This reflects the eye test. Elias had a good game and one of RT's best games this season.
Holloway seems much better on the wing. His speed generates offense, he is great on forecheck, and he hounds d at the point and can create chances. At center much of that is neutralized.

The problem with Holloway at center is that his face off percentage was 39%, and I can't fairly attribute that to Bannister.

I agree with you. There's something we don't know, but he is quite comfy as a winger.
Agree. See my other post. He may suck at it.
Yeah, But let's be real, The ONLY player on that line that can generate is Thomas. Buch has been completely off all season and Neighbours only has one setting. Neighbours really needs to learn how to use his team mates.

Sadd has been invisible this year. Maybe try Bolduc and Holloway with Scheen for the 2nd line? I don’t want to see Bolduc/Holloway split up.

Tonight that was absolutely the case. Thomas is clearly a level way above Kyrou and Buch. This was a terrible game for Buch…hope he wakes up as he’s not playing C anymore.
Forgot Scheen with Holloway/Bolduc, let’s see Thomas center those 2!

Blues needed some luck and a few things to go right to get us out of this black hole since 2022. Things are starting to go right…Edmonton is utterly incompetent. They don’t deserve a Cup.
Buch Thomas Kyrou
