GDT: Game 4: Nashville Predators @ Anaheim Ducks | 7:30 PM PST

[rollingdux]

That's a huge goal for the Ducks, huge goal for 2nd line, and huge goal for Bobby Ryan.

 

[Jerky Leclerc]

It was a good move to switch up the lines. We don't need a checking line against Nashville. BB put together familiar pairs with Koivu/Teemu and Bonino/Palmieri.

 

[The Midnight Burrito]

There we go. See what happens when you win some board battles, Selanne and Ryan?

 

[Pahlsson26]

I guess breaking up the 3rd line isn't the end of the world.

 

[HanSolo]

Thank god. Happy for Fowler. He deserves a point for how he's been playing. He and Palmieri are the two guys really bringing it tonight. Hope this goal gives them the inspiration to come out flying.

 

[Paul4587]

I like putting Koivu up on the 2nd line but is it really necessary to switch Palmieri and Winnik?

 

[Dirk316]

Yeah. We replaced DSP's worthlessness with Staubitz's.

?

 

[HanSolo]

I think Bonino could work in place of Koivu.

 

[Pahlsson26]

Exactly what I was thinking. Although I'd rather it be Holland/Palmieri.

 

[Dirk316]

I wonder why we are not being pushed around this game?

 

[Sojourn]

I figure the points will come, if he can keep playing like this. There have been chances.

 

[Sojourn]

Yeah... it must be Staubitz. Because, you know, he's done so much out there.

 

[Duck Off]

I don't like these line combinations that BB is using. Think he's current rolling:
Winnik-Getz-Perry
Ryan-Koivu-Selanne
Cogs-Bones-Palmieri
4th line no change

If he's gonna break up the 3rd line, might as well put RPG back together.
RPG
Cogliano-Koivu-Selanne
Winnik-Bones-Ryan

 

[The Midnight Burrito]

Fasth, I dub thee Speedy.

Boudreau had plans to swap those two, back and forth, before the season began.

 

[Dirk316]

Yeah... it must be Staubitz. Because, you know, he's done so much out there.

Didnt watch the end of the 2nd period I guess

 

[Exit Dose]

Fasth, I dub thee Speedy.

Speedhy.

 

[mightyquack]

Don't you remember him dropping his gloves and stick for a fight but no-one wanted to fight?!

ENFORCING!

You're the strangest poster on this entire site. You have a Bob Marley avatar, your country flag thing is Ukraine, and you constantly post about how the team doesn't have enough grit.

Reggae/Marijuana=Toughness ?

 

[Sojourn]

Nashville is just too scared of him.

 

[mightyquack]

Did Ryan just call Teemu, 'T'?

 

[Paul4587]

I initially thought it was Teemu's goal as well.

 

[Duck Off]

Yeah... it must be Staubitz. Because, you know, he's done so much out there.

In fairness he did have 1 solid shift earlier but I don't think the team needs he and Beleskey in the lineup at the same time.

After watching the replay it looks more like Teemu's goal, who is even more undeserving tonight. That was all Koivu and Fowler.

 

[The Midnight Burrito]

Looked to me like Teemu tipped that.

He did, but one shift really doesn't make an argument for him being the reason Anaheim isn't getting pushed around.
