MAYBE they get away with it against Seattle tonight but WOW is that 3rd line not going to cut it come playoff time.

I know Yanni Groude is hurt right now but he's scheduled to be back for the playoffs.

If you ever needed any proof we need a guy like Yanni Groude, or Ryan Strome or ROR, or Scott Laughton look at that 3rd line.

That is awful.

Poor Bobby McMann.

Holmberg is a black hole, he sucks all the talent around him into it but only to be destroyed not used.

True but you are playing with two 5th lines. Why not use 16 or 88 to drive the 3rd line? Good Luck with that strategy in the playoffs IMO.

Probably because it would be difficult to get all three 20 minutes a night. Wouldn’t want to see one of the core consistently getting 14 minutes a night

between him, kampf, dewar, reaves and possibly jarnkrok we could legitamately get 2-3 total goals in a hypothetical 20 game run

that's like 2-3 goals in 80ish games played for them all

A bottom six with the core 4 playing only top 6 would ideally be:
Domi - GoalScoring C - Robertson**
Lorentz - * - Another Lorentz like guy

* - ONE of Kampf, Dewar, Holmberg, Jarnkrok
** - rather get a more sure fire player than robertson who idk can cut playoff hockey
 
Howdy Ho's !!

From the (relatively ha) cold west coast.

Will be interesting to see who from the Least coast has the stones to stay up for this.

Let's keep this road roll going.

Why oh why do we continually give Domi chance after chance. No other player with his stats would get first line minutes. McMann should be there. Domi cannot play D well enough to get 3rd or 4th line winger. He is no better than Robertson but Robertson has more points.

the only way domi can ever work is playing with two volume shooters to make up for his lack of it
so either you go with that incredibly chaotic, playoff unplayable line of McMann - Domi - Robertson or you do this.

Ideally you get a good goalscoring 3C and can run:
Domi - C - Patches/Robertson

but as of now this is a good way to try and get him to play well
