Bednar is doing what he’s supposed to do and that is testing out multiple combinations while he has the luxury to do so.
Once the playoffs start, injuries are everywhere and building up chemistry for the same top 6 for the rest of the regular season does you no good unless you can guarantee no injuries.

He needs to be sure that players can play with anybody, because, simply, they will likely need to.

Well Bednar has already tried 2 different variations on top of the one and they have not worked.

Necas-Mack-Lehky
Druin-Nelson-Val

This was tried several games at start with 2nd line not doing anything except game1.

Druin - Mack - Lehky
Necas - Nelson - Val

I know its just 2 games but they havent done much of anything. Big 2nd lines is kinda good on paper, but it lacks something to work. 1st is missing big body in Val.

There isnt too many options to try other than those plus the one that has worked magic.

If they wanna go for the cup I would wanna have the working lines to be as good as they can through games to make them know where everyone is blindfolded. Nelson has like 20 games total anyway to fit in as 2C, so why change his wingers constantly? It might not matter in the end if someone is injured and you need to break them but whats the point because then there would be someone outside top6.

Its the small things which matter so perfect them and dont try to have everyting and be average.

Am I the only one that wants to call him "Fecey"?

I hate that @The Mars Volchenkov is putting stuff on Bluesky a) before Twitter and b) at all.

Twitter is full of giant assholes so I’m slowly moving over. Slowly.

I mean Vesey is just a plain vanilla depth guy. Doesn't do anything good or bad.


And that's a significant upgrade on the Miles Wood.

Works for me because I can actually break some lineup news here for a change.

My Twitter got hacked and Twitter would never fix the issue so I just never bothered again.

Sorry to tell you this, but so is BlueSky.

But politics should be a nono on a fan sports forum. So i shut up!

Any social media platform is going to be full of assholes. What bothers me about X is how it is run these days. Sadly, Bluesky isn't there yet for me.

I'm glad he is. X is a cesspool.

They're ramping up. Give them time. X is now owned by XAi which will hopefully help a bit. But X is basically just a conspiracy theorist subreddit board at this point. Grok is an interesting product, but the rest of the platform has really fallen apart.

Companies all pulled back from X and it's really just a freight train of Russian or aligned bots, OF models, and Maga.

It's a cesspool over there. I opened up X recently just to view a video link and it's so, so bad.

There aren't quite enough news-types on there for a really reliable means of keeping up with stuff but it's getting there.

It's not even close to as bad.

Correct, not even remotely close and you can mass block anything to do with anything. I don’t see any political crap on mine.

Twitter replies just for engagement trolling, huge ads, every moron with a blue checkmark. I get what I need on Bluesky at this point.

The only true untouchables on this team are MacKinnon and Makar.

And Miles Wood (because no team will touch him)

It won't. It'll make things way worse.
