He is quickly endearing himself in the things he says about the contract, his family, the city, the ownership. Could become a favorite very quickly.
I actually like that Powerplay set up. Having Lecavalier in the right side would open up another shooting lane. His slapshot is really good as seen in the highlights against us.http://video.flyers.nhl.com/videocenter/console?catid=771&id=262342&lang=en
Vinny Lecav interview.
Says he's a lot more comfortable playing on his off wing (RW) then he is on the Left, if they choose to put him on the Wing. When they mentioned he may have an opportunity to play on Roo's line it sounded like his voice got higher he was genuinely excited about the prospect of that. Have a feeling that was probably a big seller for him coming here. 1st PP unit looks like this IMO.
Roo-Lecav-Simmonds/Hartnell
Timonen-Voracek
Obviously simmonds or Hartnell goes where he normally goes. Roo goes to his spot and Lecav and Voracek both line up for one T's in the higher or lower slot with timonen at the top of the umbrella.
thank you have to move streit tot he first pp.
No put him on the second. They need a blast and a QB from the point which the first unit already has.
G may score more pp goals this year as teams will be cheating to cover Vinnys 1 timer. His quick shot may catch goalies off guard.
Streit and Gus at the points with Lecavalier and Read along the boards and Schenn down low while keeping our first unit intact seems like a good fit.
Let Giroux take the faceoff. Switch him to the left side with Hartnell headed to the slot, keep LeCavalier at RW, and support the three with Timonen and Jake on the points.
Read, Schenn/Couturier, Simmonds, Streit, and Gustafsson line up for sloppy seconds.

Can't bear to read this thread, just too painful, so forgive me if this has already been posted. Just a glimpse at the man you're getting rather than focusing on the hockey player. I've never been able to imbed a video, but here's the link.

(And before anyone is tempted to be negative, he didn't want his name on the wing, and he didn't want his picture displayed in it. The hospital insisted, however, because they wanted the kids and their families to know who was responsible for the facility. I've toured it - it's like something out of science fiction. Just incredible.)

There is no doubt in my mind if in year 4 or 5 of contract if we are not contending Vinny goes back to T Bay to finish his career.
