So play him with Staalrantanen with roslovic as center is the dumbest move Ive seen this year. Its a mess
Youd have better luck winning the lottery than hoping for Rod to demote a vet to a lower line on defense7 D you would have thought someone would have been either covering for Burns on PK or on PP
I don’t think top two lines are playing chip and chase though; Staal and 4th line certainly are.Yes.
The PP sucks, it sucks during the playoffs too. I'm not impressed with the defense either, maybe getting Burns and Orlov off the roster will help so I'll reserve judgement. But it sucks seeing Slavin get dragged down.
There's zero reason Aho and Svech to be in scoring slumps every f***ing year. Jarvis goes through them too at times. There's zero reason to have to constantly play from behind. This "grit and grind" shit has run its course. It is boring and hair-pullingly frustrating to watch. And in the rare occasions they don't outshoot the opposition like tonight, they look like ECHL.
Someone in the front office has to get through to Rod that he has to either change his ways or he goes. They aren't winning anymore with his style.
We have one, his name is AhoTeams not going anywhere without a 2c
At a certain point you have to admit that you aren't going to win the Cup with Burns playing major minutes in 2025. And we are playing him the most TOI of the team this year.I don’t think top two lines are playing chip and chase though; Staal and 4th line certainly are.
Need a PP + a revamp of defense pairs will help. Need to trade burns, now if they want to compete this year. If it’s just a bridge year and you want to sell more water treatment systems, then burns is your guy.
1c. I don’t think aho is a 1c the way he is playing.Teams not going anywhere without a 2c
