Rossi.. passes it to Khusnutdinov.. one-touch, cross-ice pass to zuccarello! wide open net!... passes it to Rossi...

Rossi passes it to Khusnutdinov, over to Zuccarello, wide open net!... cross ice pass that is intercepted and we have a 2 on 1 the other way!

It's frustrating how accurate that truly is......

Or: Rossi passes it to Khusnutdinov, over to Zuccarello, wide open net!...Zuke looking for Kap(who is sitting on the bench) and gets robbed of the puck leading to a 3-on 1 rush against

I figured accuracy was enough, didn't think hyperbole was needed...

I don't know.... this seems even more accurate..

Rossi passes it to Khusnutdinov, over to Zuccarello, wide open net!...Zuke looking for Kap(who is sitting on the bench) "Hey Kap, you walking to your vehicle alone later? No reason. Just asking"

 

[Sweetnut]

You're right, I should have said a 2 on 1 rush..

 

[AKL]

All I know is the other team is going to have numbers at center

 

[Spurgeon]

If Ek is out for a while, I think you just throw Khus into his spot to get some chemistry with Kap.

Probably will be easier for him to learn the system that way too. Wouldn’t expect him to come in & save the season, but it’d be pretty cool if it worked out that way.

He's obviously getting paired with Zuke, because mentoring

Well folks , we need to go 11-5 the rest of the way. Sounds a little better than 12-5. Take care of Anaheim tomorrow and things are starting to get ever so slightly more realistic.

With how tight the WC race is, I wouldn’t be comfortable with less than 95 points.

The other bubble teams along with Vegas have been pretty terrible lately

Let's hope Vegas falls on their faces.

They certainly have been

With how much overlap there is between schedules, there’s always going to be some team keeping pace.

Like this Seattle - Vegas game, it’s not really good for us if either team wins.

No 3 point game and I’d prefer Seattle wins

 

[north21]

Certainly those roster spots having vets in them probably is playing some role on the current Yurov situation

All those guys begging to play with Yurov next year?

 

[JiricekSaveUs]

You could fit Keller / Konecny in if you’re able to get a deal done.

Kaprizov-Ek-Boldy
Keller/Konecny-Rossi-Hartman
Johansson-Yurov/Gaudreau-Zucarello
Foligno-Marat-XXX

I really like the idea of Konecny still, as long as it doesn't take Rossi or Yurov to get it done.

He makes sense to be on the Market too. I don’t see why AZ Would trade Keller

I really don't get the impression they would, at least not until it's the end of his contract and he gives the impression he won't sign again. He's basically their Kaprizov. He's going to drag them kicking and screaming through the dark ages because they need someone like him when they make it out the other side.

Same, but also don’t want to include this year’s 1st if it is top 12.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

There seems to be a general consensus on the top 10-12, but I really only get to 6 or 7 before I start shrugging my shoulders on guys. That said, it sounds like one those guys in my top 6 or 7 could very well be around at 10-12, since there's a wide range of opinions on the order after #1.
