Not loving the 3rd line. Mclean and Zeke need a different linemate.

Nelson line generated most of the 5v5 chances. Will take a bit for Tsyplakov to handle 19 minutes a night of that style of play.


Overall not a bad game but more is required to beat a goalie of Oettinger's caliber.

Yes, not impressed with he third line or Wally. Actually would like to see Lee on the 4th line...call it a 3b line. Bring a quicker skater to the third....for now...

That third period proved they can control the play during a game. Now if they can score consistently combined with that tempo, the team will be dangerous this season.

Also, replace the 4th line RW FFS. Even going 11/7 would be a better decision then watching that skate around lost.

I enjoy reading people’s ideas of who should play with whom. Like it’s gunna make any difference on this team.

The “line blender” only shows that coaching doesn’t know and the team is short on skill.

But we kinda knew that already.
