GDT: Wings @ Devils - Home Opener! - 7:00 PM - MSG

[JK3]

Two shooters with a black hole center, sweet!

 

[Hisch13r]

"Lindy you're lineup decisions tonight we're pretty terrible. One could say a toddler would be able to come up with better lines, what went into making such terrible choices?"

Do you think Ryan could ask that or would that go a bit too far?

It would be fair.

 

[Captain3rdLine]

McLeod breakout incoming. He’s been held back by 4th liners.

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

can just see some of the comments from the peanut gallery after the game if those are in fact the true lines

"Holtz really needs to pick it up he looked awful"
"Sharangovich is useless"

 

[TheUnseenHand]

I seriously cannot get over how horrendous those lines are.

 

[Hisch13r]

Maybe Hughes and Nico will be taking shifts for McLeod all night? Only way it makes sense.

Then don't play him and throw in Bahl

 

[My3Sons]

It would be fair.

It would be fair to ask if he took his Prevagen

 

[Devils090]

You’ve gotta be kidding me with those lines

 

[TheUnseenHand]

I seriously cannot get over how horrendous those lines are.

 

[FinnishDevil]

Holtz goes from scoring in season debut to being stapled next to Michael McLeod. This is pure comedy.

I’d ask Ruff if he is wanting to retire or get fired on purpose

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Pregame is on MSG Go.

Weird. I go to the site and it’s not there.

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

well, Tatar is starting with Nico/Bratt sooo maybe he trolled us all with those lines?

That’s the worst part of that line. Who will do anything other than shoot? McLeod doesn’t have the hands to pass even if he can win the puck battle it’s just a crash and bang play without vision. I guess as a fourth line they can get away with it.

 

[John Pedro]

Would be better to have Boqvist as the 4th line center. At least he's got some skill unlike McRapey

I mean Holtz is a really good passer but who is getting the puck to him in the first place lol

 

[Rhodes 81]

I mean you could basically swap Hughes and McLeod and it would make complete sense to everyone.

Yup. That lineup with Boqvist instead of McLeod's still awful and far from optimized but it's still much better. Yegor-Boqvist-Holtz isn't completely awful construction

 

[MasterofGrond]

let's see some f***ing HOCKEY

 

[Eggtimer]

I want to know what the thought process was when deciding the lines .
”Hmm, what should we do with our best shooters? How can we utilize them the best? We could put them with our best playmakers and passers or…. Hear me out … how about we put them where the Redwings will least expect it ! Put them with McLeod ! McLeod will win every face off and it will help get him goinf when he gets assists dishing it off !

 

[RSeen]

So now Tatar is with Nico and Bratt?

 

[Bcap88]

can we fire ruff already? Already seen enough of his line combo shenanigans

 

[EnglishDevil]

Lmao those lines are something, way to go Lindy

 

[My3Sons]

That’s true. Holtz is an excellent passer but he is not a play driver and isn’t best served going to the wall to get the puck. Just a head scratcher. As is Tatar with Hischier and Bratt. Why add another pass first guy to them? Play Shara with them at least.
