Complaining about Tuch is f***ing crazy. This board has lost it
He's obviously playing a little banged up and without TT, but has a pt per game and came on as the game went on last night I thought with the culmination being the spectacular play in overtime.

My only complaints are the shots that go 5 feet wide or over the net, but as team they do this and things like getting stuck on the ice for the last over 3 minutes of a game like in LA (also a team IQ thing).

Hathaway stole Cozens soul.

Move him to wing in the bottom-6. Maybe playing against weaker opponents in a less demanding role will get him going.

Even with Tage out they've still got the center depth to support that move. McLeod, Kulich, Krebs, Lafferty. Not ideal, but doable.

I'm just a fount of friendly fire tonight, but I'm sorry Dunleavy is just bad. He's such drag. He's got some intense Canadian winner's guilt to be so drab about a rookie scoring a wild OT winner.

Going from even late RJ to him has been like walking out of Studio 54 straight into a madrassa. He's too much of a stiff to become an institution here, inshallah.
Honestly wish we had taken advantage of that appalling decision by Tom Dundon to get rid of Chuck Kaiton and hired him as a bridge until they found someone worthy of replacing RJ.

Dunleavy is terrible. I always watch the opponent's feed because of him.

Him and Rob should just swap roles with Duff and Biron. It'll never happen though.
Remember when Duff had to take over a broadcast after RJ had a medical emergency and did a far better job than Dunleavy ever has under the worst circumstances possible?

Dont love Duff. If I had to pick a replacement, I'd bring in Don Stevens from Roch. He's very entertaining.

I was too harsh on Tuch the other day. I still think he's more of a 1/2W tweener, and some things in his game leave me wanting/worried about precipitous decline. But he works his ass off and produces consistently. I'm glad he's on the team. That play in overtime last night was his essence.

Zucker is a maniac. :laugh: We've needed his kind of energy from our vets for years.
