I think if both players are equally meh at the moment I’d rather play Lapierre than Vrana, just because Vrana isn’t a potential long term player. Im not opposed to Lapierre playing first line minutes in Hershey for a bit, but while he’s here I don’t mind him playing.

Get what you're saying but Vrana in about the same amount of games is on pace for around 20 goals, 35 points. Lappy has 0 goals and two assists so far. Vrana gives us a better chance to win hockey games at the moment.
Yeah, I get what you’re saying. I feel like they want to see a little more if being on the wing helps Lapierre, since he’s only done it once so far. Better to do it now than to wait for later so you can make your decision faster. I will say, if Miro comes in and plays well it puts a lot of pressure on Lapierre, he could end up heading back down instead or Miro if that happens
Good. Lindgren’s demise has been greatly exaggerated. No reason to end the rotation after 1 1/2 months.
This is interesting to me. I think Pro being better on the left is probably why OV was playing on the right. But i like getting our lines back together. I also like giving Lappy a second game at wing.

A little friendly competition never hurt a roster. I love Vrana but I think HL getting another game and getting Miro on the ice is important too, this is a good problem to have in the long run.

Just ate a gummie. Going to pick up pizza. Then Caps, Bears, Hokies, bourbon and poker with my son and his friends home from college. Come on Caps… need a happy ending tonight!

Does Lindgren squirt a jet of water in his eyes after ever stoppage of play? Never noticed until now.

Funny. Ever since that goal in Vegas guys are trying the rebound off the end board play (Mikey just now)

Pretty series of passes to get that goal. No screen, goalie needs to make that save.

Okay, I wasn't going to say anything, but since he just got an assist, now I will: Lapierre looks much more confident with the puck today.

weird period. Liked our game, just seem like we're a little off on the final pass
Love Dowd and Wilson but they just consistently take horrible penalties

Thats generally called 9 times out of 10. Little early for game management but who knows.
