This.
Putting Schmaltz on the 3rd line, with his speed and playmaking ability, is extremely stupid. He's a 60+ point player if he stays in the top 6 with tremendous defense.

Hayden was me all along.
That disallowed goal was a super snipe!

Indeed it was. Too bad.
Is putting Kessel on the 3rd line extremely stupid as well? Pens won a Cup with him there.
Putting Schmaltz on the 3rd line brings a lot of balance to our lineup.

That is just sick.
Would have liked to have seen a few replays of it.
With Hayden's great release it is easy to see why he scored so often in College.

I'm just going to say it. The Hawks are lucky as **** that the players they banked on are real players it seems. Hartman tracked the same as McNeill, Schmaltz tracked like Pirri, I mean hell Morin was traded straight up for Panik. Hayden, another Jimmy Hayes. All very comparable. All went the wrong way before and the right way this time at the exact right moment in time.
That's either genius scouting and player recognition or luck or both. I'm enjoying it though.
Hayden has been terrific along the boards the last few games. He's also a ****ing brick, almost impossible to knock down.
There was one play in which he was entering the offense zone and a Canuck player attempted to body him up to slow him down. Hayden just leaned in and the dude flopped, with Hayden not even exhibiting a wobble. Impressive.
I don't really see how any of those players were "tracking" like the others, remotely. Not to mention they are all completely different players from one another for the most part.
There's always an element of luck to players turning out because it's not an exact science and there are misses, but you don't hit on as many players as they have the last few years by strictly luck. They scout and self-scout very well. It isn't an accident.
