He's tougher then Palat net front and better on the offensive boards

I'd say Noesen is better net front, but palat is much better on the boards and cycle.

That marky save was ridiculous. From live look I thought for sure Tampa was gonna pot that.

Had a lot of good looks this game but we still didn't capitalize on em. Glad this team was able to close out a win.
 
Sure but he's finally made himself useful. If anything I wouldn't mind swapping Noesen/Mercer again. The Nico line hasn't been good since the break.
The Nico line is getting the heavy defensive minutes right now because we don’t have 3rd and 4th line center depth right now with Haula out (and him likely playing hurt before that).
 
Really I'll give you he's better on the cycle but he's weak on the boards almost eveytime he has the puck he gives it up. That's one of my main gripes with hiim

At least I can say, the last number of games palat has played with a lot of balls, impetuously on the forecheck and on the hunt in the ozone. I know he's had a rough go at points over this contract, but palat is playing with some aggressive hustle out there.
