What a joke. Maybe don’t throw Tucker and the 4th line out there after we score? 2nd CBJ goal within seconds after the Blues score.

El Torro is a bull on the forth line playing well there and Sunny can play C which we are seriously sort of people who can.
That’s fair. Torpo definitely gets in on the forecheck and I admittedly don’t watch him much away from the puck, just feels when we’re missing offense that it’s tougher to justify. But I know we’re working on defense to offense too, so forecheck is huge.

Great point on the C spot too. Makes more sense, wasn’t thinking there.

I’ve been absent recently, but watching.

Any reason why we sit a young guy like Boldy while keeping Torpo night in and night out? I’d rather just have kept Boldy than insert Sunny too, honestly.

I have no idea the reason but I’ve noticed any game that isn’t a blowout in our favor - bolduc starts the game with normal icetime and has less shifts each period the rest of the game, sometimes ending with only 1 or 2 third period shift.

Could it be conditioning due to being young? Some specific deficiency I’m too dumb to notice? Something they expect or need that he doesn’t provide yet? Idk.

I'm only half watching the Blues game because frankly the juniors game is way more entertaining, but what the hell is Monty doing with the lines tonight? Saad and Sunny on the first power play unit?

One complaint Boston fans had was the fact that Monty never stuck with the same lines. He needs to knock it off.

He’s definitely cooled off from the coach change burst too, so I get it, even just a reset.

Ugh, just feels like we need more offensive creativity, just don’t know where it comes from without giving up somewhere else.
