Since we dont need the 1st line to score goals, I'd be happy with Kreider throwing his fists at Clutterbuck, repeatedly

Its an absolute disaster of a line. At best they get a weak scoring chance and then spend the rest of their shift in their own end. Cally and Richards have ZERO chemistry with one another. Hags speed is worthless cause Richards isn't that fast. Brian Boyle's line is more of an offensive threat in this game. BRIAN BOYLE!!! That is a disgrace!

If trading Cally means I don't have to see that stupid line again, I'll drive him to airport myself.

People are saying we cant break up 3rd line cause they have chemistry.. Well Zuccarello has inserted chemistry to every frikking line he has played with.. I pray they switch it up a bit.

I disliked Torts' constant line juggles, but this is getting silly.
 
The fourth line is having a great game. I don't know who pissed Boyle off but I want to see him wrecking people more.

Richards has been awful this game

Its not even that. Richard's doesn't play Cally's game. When Cally gets the puck along the boards he just tosses it down low. Cally's entire offensive zone game(as well as Hags)is to tire opposing D-men with non stop board cycling. He has ZERO creativity.

Richards needs people who can get him the puck in open spaces so he can move it around the zone. Cally/Hags do not have the vision to do that. Unless they get incredibly lucky with their patient blind backhand passes into the slot.
 
Teams seem to be taking less penalties vs NYR now that we have a respectable power play.

BTW, Kreider has been totally invisible. I guess the ice hurts his game.

He hasn't gotten one good pass the whole game.

He's not the type to skate the puck through the zone by himself ala Nash.

That being said, that line really needs to step it up.

First and second line are at least getting chances. That third line is just dragging down any sort of momentum generated by the other three lines.

Puck keeps bouncing

Too bad. Weather you cannot do anything about but these professional ice makers should be able to make a good product. It's a shame if the game is decided by a bad bounce caused by poor ice. Unless it's Rangers getting the lucky bounce LOL
 
They have to get the puck moving down low. Nab is way out of his net. Just takes one good pass and its an empty netter.

I think we spoke past each other. with 3rd line I was referring to Brass line

Richards line is the third line as far as I can tell. Its been that way for a while.

I don't believe you can break up that Zucc-brassard-pouliot. Your maximizing Pouliot and your getting chemistry between Zucc and Brassard. Not to mention, its making it difficult for coaches to get match ups because you have to address Richards and Nash.
