Going back and just watching over and over that Stenlund's hit from behind boarding that SHOULD have been called. The official had a perfect view of it, how he managed to quickly swallow his whistle is incredible.

worst team in the league
Who cares?
Take the instigator, f***, slam the guy's head into the ice for all I care, if a nothing player is taking liberties with your meal ticket you make him eat through a straw, repercussions be damned

I'm with you there. However, it conceivable that Warf was preaching not to take unnecessary penalties at that point.

One thing to note is that many were very upset with the lines at the beginning of the game, but pretty quickly the top 6 turned into the Lund line, Kovalenko-macklin-toff and seemed to stabilize. Smith is the odd man out in this one, but hard to argue the top 6 didn't make sense. If Toffoli is sick, maybe he and Smith should switch.
I just think Warso's lines aren't bad, he's mostly sending short term messages to his young studs to keep bringing it, and when they do, he quickly rewards them. Generally have faith in the staff to give the team the best chance of success.
Kovalenko is, so far, everything that Cardwell could hope to one day be. Loving his game.

Getting Kovalenko gave the same vibes as when we got Zetterlund.
They play different games, but they feel perfect for this phase of the franchise. With some luck, they continue to fit into our medium term plans and let us build a strong middle 6 foundation to build off of

Agreed on all points. Hard to say that his mini lessons don’t work when Zetterlund looked far better this game. He knows these guys well, he knows what motivates them after a couple of years, I see nothing egregious.
Smith is tricky particularly because with Kostin out, Wennberg is really the only higher end skill guy for him to play with, though they don’t really mesh particularly well.
I think I’d, yeah, go back to what we had:
Eklund - Celebrini - Kovalenko
Kostin/Zetterlund (when he’s back) - Granlund - Smith
Zetterlund/Kostin - Wennberg - Toffoli
Etc

About 30 seconds before that ‘vicious’ high stick on Keller that nearly killed him and led to the gwg.

Is Mack ok this morning? The most concerning thing about the game last night (other than the Refs) was how much Mack was getting abused. Hopefully there are no concussion symptoms. When he went into the boards he did get the gloves up to protect himself some.
