So first things first.
Pysyk getting scratched at his cap hit is a problem. It doesnt allow us to call up any possible infusion of offense (Tippett for example).
Trocheck has had one good game. It was at Nashville. And btw. That was his one good game the last 40 plus games. That's a problem. We need someone to push him down the lineup. Now.
Vatrano is supposed to bring physicality, grit, and offense. None of the 3 has happened.
Boyle is nice for a 4th liner.
Saarela experiment is over. See #1. Move Pysyk and get some real talent in..
Hoffman is a joke when he isnt scoring. And he isnt doing it enough to make a difference. 3 of his goals came in one game.
Acciari, Barkov trio, and Connolly are the only one that bring it. That's not enough out of your 12 forwards.
