I originally thought that as well.

But then I saw that O'Connor has zero points in his last 13 games, while Kiviranta has 1 point in his last 13. So there you go.

LoC has been stapled to the black holes that are Kelly and Kivi on the 4th line. He's never going to produce there. His only hope for points are on the PK. Bednar knows he can be a fantastic 3rd line winger, but Bednar it a stubborn mule.

He's more of a donkey at this stage, but point taken.

Now, show me what the lineup would look like if you were filling it out. I don't mind JD on Mitts wing, but I think he's better paying with Nate, although Nuke and Lehky have had problems developing chemistry before, and it's also looked like it might work before so who knows.

I think I'd like to see:
JD-Nate-Nuke
Lehky-Mitts-Necas
RosCo-Drury-LOC
Wood-Kelly-Parssinen

But please keep in mind, I have it on good authority that I am, in fact, a hockey Pejorative Slur.

This is exactly how I would build out the lines as well to see if they work.

Bednar:



LOC and Drouin:

I thought Bednar's answer about the lack of practices was fascinating.

"Like we've been a team that's kinda um I'd say we probably practice less than most teams in the league, if not all. Partly, because of our location, our travel and partly because of like, the, the injury status and we're a little top-heavy, so like those guys, like when they get taxed, you know... so usually when we get to this point in the year there is lots of optionals, double optionals."

First question... what the hell is a double optional? Is that like when a player opts out of a practice but the coach plays a reverse card? I mean... just how emphatic are our players about not practicing.
​
Bednar: Hey guys, I'd like to get together tomorrow at say 10am to run through some scenarios.
MacK and Makar: Yeah, I don't think so. We're sleeping in and opting out.
Bednar: It's not really optional.
Nate: No we are doubling optioning out. Now you just go do you're f***ing job somewhere else. ​
​
Second question... when he talks about "partly because of our location"... what is he talking about? Is he literally calling out the fact that practice facility is so damn far away it's just not convienent?
