4th line has been great, seems weird to change it but with that 3rd line almost primarily taking d-zone draws, do you really want Ritchie there??

You could put him on the 2nd (in Kerfoot's spot), slide Kerfoot to the 3rd & Engvall to the fourth... Ritchie hasn't really been good enough to be in the top 6 though so it's all pretty tough to decide IMO

What you’re saying is there is no role for him on the team then. I get your logic, but having Spezz take d zone draws is fine too.

I know being a professional athlete requires some ability to block out noise. That being said, I would like to think based off of the embarrassment that was Sat night and the humiliation of being the team beaten by the zamboni driver and having Carolina bring him in tonight to troll you to your face, that it would elicit some kind of response.

lol Everyone and their grandmas know this team will fold like a cheap tent under such environment.

I can actually see Ritchie scoring one tonight. Spezza is slicing through other teams bottom 6es right now. There will be some loose pucks for Ritchie to bang home.

you'd think so but for whatever reason the team falls flat on its face in those moments

remember JT's first game back in NY?

got wrecked so hard the mayor needed to announce a JT day

I'm cheering for the team just like every other game and anyone that isn't, shouldn't even be here. I expect a great game tonight, top line should produce some fireworks and I also expect Marner to play his best game of the year tonight.

GLG!!

Let’s get this win… let’s get this win… let’s get this win… let’s get this win

If there was ever a time for low scoring games, I’d love it to be this one. Still love Fred even though he kinda sorta sucked during his end in Toronto

Neither Holl or Muzzin have been able to get the puck out cleanly. Liljegren with Muzzin adds a faster skater and a breakout pass capability.

Don’t know how Holl’s body of work thus far puts him firmly in the 2nd pairing. They have not looked good together at all this far.

Would assume it's the last chance for that pairing. And I agree Liljegren should be with Muzzin.

On paper it looks really good. Let's hope it translates well on the ice.

Yup really hoping for a great game from that line.

I think it'll work. Bunting will be that guy they need going into the trenches. He'll pick up the garbage rebounds. Nylander and Matthews have chemistry.

Just hope Marner and JT can get back to how they played together a couple years back.

Worth a shot. Glad he changed something up. D pairs could be better though. Muzz and Holl need a redemption game.

Most important thing is that all 3 can shoot, I expect Matthews is going to get a lot more space or Nylander/Bunting will pot a couple.

Gonna sit back and relax watching the game tonight after missing the last one and most of the previous. Big game against a great team and Freddys return.

Have fun tonight guys and don't lose your minds too much one way or another heh.

I had a really great day so far. Up and showered by 10am. Married at 1pm. Doctors appointment where all went well at 2:15. A few pub beers with close friends at 3pm. A visit to my Mom's at 4pm where we announced our marriage to her on her birthday. She was ecstatic. There's only one more thing that can make this a perfect day...
