So.....that last second goal CRUSHED people that gambled on it? Pretty sure that goal swang a decision there....for bookies.
 
The refs are trying to ruin him.
No, dude. The guy has bad luck when it comes to points. Yea he had a 2 goal game the other night, but I’ve seen this stuff all season. Either incompetent players receive his passes, either guys can’t finish, or the goal gets called back like tonight. There have been like 5-10 instances all year where he started a play that should have ended up with the puck in the back of the net. It’s not that points are all that matter, but all year I hear “he can’t put up points.”

The D pairings have worked well
really REALLY liked the look of staal-deangelo the last 2 games. not that my trust in him matters in any way, but DQ is facing a real test in my p.o.v when pionk is healthy again. if he reunites staal-pionk, i start to doubt if hes the right coach.

that may seem rash, but that pairing has just proven to be absolutely horrendous, and it's not even a debate. large enough sample size that that pairing should never touch the ice intact again.

meanwhile, why split up a good thing. don't fix it if it aint broken. keep staal-deangelo together. even though we've played 2 teams that just aren't good, they should get a chance against a better team since they've gelled.

also, we're going to see if pionk is to DQ what staal-holden was to AV in the 2017 playoffs. we've won 2 straight, pnce again against sh***y teams, but the lineup should stay the same until we lose; as it has for most of the season (minus one occurence with buch i think)

not to cross my own words of hating recency bias, but no decisions should be made over 2 games. that being said, staal-deangelo has worked the last 2 games, so give it a chance to work in a higher pressure situation against better teams, then make the decision after another 2-3 games of that
 
Mika has taken a big step this year, and I believe he still has another level he can reach.
Enjoying Mika's strong year but a bettter Mika/CK/and now even Zucc means literally no chance for a top 4 pick

It`s a long season and not always the bottom team who ends up with the 1st overall pick.

I love Pionk, but DeAngelo works much better with Staal. I would like to see Skjei-Pionk. If I remember correctly, they weren’t too bad. Maybe even Lindgren-Pionk eventually, but I would like Lindgren to get a bit more experience first.
