Would be nice to see Bedard and Reichel get some time together.

I would try a Reichel-Dickinson-Bedard line.

Let Kurashev take Reichel’s place as 4C.

 

[Toews2Bickell]

What exactly do you think a rookie Nazar and Bedard are going to do against the best players in the world every single night? Besides chase the puck and get dominated? Idiotic? Yeah, it f***ing would be.

he's on pace for like 15 goals, what exactly is the logic to keep him in same situation, move him to RW, let Nazar be the 200ft 70 pt center with the defensive responsibilities....We want Bedard to be Kane and maximize his offensive output...thats the outcome that is best for the team, its that simple

 

[Chuck Testa]

Let Bedard rock the fishbowl again and watch him take off.

Fishbowl Bedard was the best Bedard last season.

 

[TheFridge]

Yeah you’re right. They should continue to do nothing and let Bedard sink further.

No no, you're right. Clearly Nazar is ready for the hardest matchups in the world. He has 16 points in 13 AHL games.

Bedard hasn't even been playing consistently with the best players on this roster. Let's start with that first before we give Nazar the Reichel treatment.

Sorry I had to come back and edit this because I missed this really stupid part by not reading it. What the f*** is the bolded? You're going to bring Nazar up and tell him to be a 200 ft player when he's not even a refined 200 ft player in the AHL right now?

To be fair, the only way you get ready is by playing against them.

 

[TheFridge]

He's not ready. He showed that in the preseason. 13 games in the AHL doesn't change that.

 

[GIADF]

I really want him to be ready but at the end of the day this is what I default back to. Give him 40 or so games in Rockford.

By all means call him up at some point in the second half. But not now.

Well that's part of the problem

The coach shouldn't be matching them against Barkov and the like

There are multiple things the front office needs to address

Calling up Nazar is one, firing Luke Richardson and replacing him with Monty is another

 

[Taze em]

i really can't wait until we 1) have defensemen who can walk the line and get shots through and 2) forwards strong or skilled enough to beat a man 1 on 1 in zone.

Any year now.
