For real, he's been fantastic. I was really hoping he'd get himself a hatty, too.Chanting Brodie. I love it. He's been world class tonight

Amazing how much hate the move got, to be honest.
And I say that not remembering if I liked the move or not.
Some more residual egg on our faces, though.
No, I meant in reference to the Canucks shutting down McDavid and beating the Oilers.If this board's search didn't suck so much, I'd bump the crow eating thread
Gaudreau with 4 points. Brodie with 4 points.
McDavid way down the standings with 3 points.
Gaudreau - Monahan - Ferland
Tkachuk - Backlund - Frolik
Versteeg - Bennett - Jagr
Stajan -/- Jankowski - Lazar
Prob the best lines GG could deploy. Either way, Lazar played a game that should earn him the next one but the first three RW spots should be locks.

Based on tonight:
Gaudreau - Bennett - Lazar worked beautifully. Why not keep it?
Versteeg - Monahan - Ferland was great, but mostly because of Versteeg and Monahan, I think.
No reason to break up 3M.
Glass - Stajan - Brouwer was a good fourth line.
I think the first instinct is to try to put Jagr in Ferland's spot, and move Ferland to the fourth line. Sorry Tanner.
Or they could just go with what they were running in practice.
This game was a testament to the fact that Brodie is still our second best Dman, despite how amazing Hamilton is
I'd be really, really hard pressed to give Glass the hook against Anaheim in favour of keeping Brouwer in the lineup.
I'd personally love:
Johnny - Bennett - Lazar
Tkachuk - Backs - Frolik
Ferland - Monahan - Jagr (Having Steeger in versus Ferland kills any speed. If this team got stuck in it's own zone it'd be pulling pucks out of the net. With Ferland, I love the thoughts of them being in the offensive zone, 3 big dudes holding the puck all night)
Glass - Jankowski - Versteeg (2 skill guys and a wrecking ball, it's worked in the past)
Stajan and Brouwer shot off into the moon.
This win was all because of Jagr, he probably gave a half time speech for the ages.
I’m happy for Lazar. He needed a game like this more than anyone on the team. The confidence he will get from it is something he can feed off of. I think you have to keep Lazar with Bennett and Gaudreau for next game. And then yeah, Jagr gets to play with Monahan who actually isn’t slow, that’s just a misconception.
Great win for the boys, Johnny is gonna feed off this and what a great thing for Brodie. He’s been through hell the last year or so. If we get 15/16 Brodie back with a bounce back from Hamonic, it’s gonna be scary.
