February 23, 20205 yr I called it - what a joke... only Maurice would breakup our third line while its performing Dragged the 3rd line back from a scoring threat to a line of grinders...
February 23, 20205 yr 1 minute ago, iHeart said: also And Bitetto takes his place. Are you friggin kidding me Maurice? Unreal.
February 23, 20205 yr Laine best player vs Flyers so how do you reward him? Second line with Copp as his center..smh... oh well only 3 more years of this.
February 23, 20205 yr Losing to the sabres. Ugh everytime I get excited about this team making a run they disappoint in spectacular fashion. 2 more losses coming up against Washington
February 23, 20205 yr Only Maurice can turn Connor and Laine into a checking line... Appleton-Roslo-Harkins were on fire so of course you break up that line - we almost had 3 scoring lines for a couple games... Wheeler is not top line material anymore - he really has lost a step... still a great 2C Man it feels like we're going to make a bad deal for a D and give up Roslo... hope Im wrong
February 24, 20205 yr We should be sellers. All UFAs need to go. U don't make a huge deal tomorrow.. That's off season stuff. Im thinking a big move has to come in the off season. Im thinking one that would impact the room like a Wheeler or something along those lines. Something is off. A big shakeup is required. Tomorrow? Maybe Buff and Niku get packaged together and moved. Wheeler may have scored on Harkins insane pass but hes been pretty crappy for a bit and not getting younger, if I'm Chevy i ask him if hes willing to move cuz the team i dont think can win when the leaders dont show up. This first period slow starts is a problem and to me that's on coaching and leadership. Coach got extended, gotta move a "leader" Edited February 24, 20205 yr by Goalie
February 24, 20205 yr Wheelers points are inflated because of PP minutes. Hes actually.. In the last 3 seasons he has 107 5 on 5 points. Ehlers has 105. Blake has played 400 more minutes 5 on 5 tho. Wheeler should be nowhere near the 1st line and his Center abilities are extremely overrated. Time to ask for a list Edited February 24, 20205 yr by Goalie

Time to ask for a list You've been campaigning to get rid of Wheeler for a long time... its not happening. Wheeler at 2C was working - Mo hit the panic button Unblend the lines Connor-Scheif-Laine Ehlers-Wheeler-Copp Harkins-Roslo-Appleton Shore-Eakin-Bourque

He just doesn’t fit IMO.

Ppl can disagree but those Are all facts. U ask him for a list because its quite apparent the teams window with 33 yr old 8.5 million per year Wheeler is closing. 8.5 per till hes 37 38? That's an anchor contract.. Take his PP points away and hes been crap.
also Lowry's going to be out for another 3-4 weeks
