Ducky Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 They need to make another decision of Thorbs in the PB most nights and Dano and/or Lemieux given first callups. I'd hate to see our D if Buff or Enstrom was out for any long stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turns out in Maurice and Chevys opinion pav sucks. Here's reality... Pav had 5 or 6 years.... he sucks. This decision was not based on a pointless for the most part training camp... it was based on what's best for the team moving forward. Honestly, Lawless' opinion far exceeds yours. So Im not sure where all that negativity comes from or why you feel the need to rip on everyone so often. mbrg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People on this site predicted pavelec fate long before gary lawless did. Actually lawless for the last 2 months was pretty certain pav would be a Jet this year.

Ducky Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 Lawless is no smarter than most of us on here but he is way more connected. He's got a big mouth and should let Hustler talk more.....he reminds me of my ex-wife, every time Hustler starts talking he just talks louder...

FrostyWinnipeg Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 1 hour ago, Ducky said: Knocking Laine or Connor back a line delaying their development just like Staf is going to do to Armia and Dano this year. Ladd had 25 last year. That's not 3rd line player stats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ducky Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 (edited) What I meant is there is no room on the team for him....I don't want a young LWer to lose playing time to Ladd. He's playing with Tavares this year so he should easily get another 25. Edited October 11, 2016 by Ducky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unknown Poster Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 Ladd might have forced Ehlers to his preferred position on the LW. Unlikely you'd want to move Laine over. So Laine probably ends up 1LW and Ladd 2LW with Little & Ehlers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ducky Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 No thanks, they should have traded Staf too. He won't be here after the TD this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlikely you'd want to move Laine over. So Laine probably ends up 1LW and Ladd 2LW with Little & Ehlers. Maurice said he expects his four kids to move and play on both sides this year to help their development. (Referring to Laine, Connor, Ehlers and Morrissey) So, maybe Laine, Connor and Ehlers would flip sides in order to accommodate the aging Ladd. Good problem not to have this year!

Ducky Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 I think he said they will play with different players and not so much flipping sides although he did say something about that about Ehlers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmmm... I'll have to listen to the quote again. I thought he wanted them all to play on both sides. I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Unknown Poster Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 I think it depends on how Laine and Connor play. If both push for top six minutes, and perhaps Stafford falters or there is an injury, Ehlers to the RW is the obvious play. Stafford could have a good season playing with young talent. Quite frankly, he's not in the long term plans but realistically, he's a talented veteran who should offer some guidance to the kids. And thats not a bad thing.

Atomic Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 Reports that the line rushes today are: Ehlers - Scheifele - Wheeler Matthias - Little - Stafford Laine - Perreault - Connor Tanev - Lowry - Armia Burmi - Thorburn Morrissey - Byfuglien Enstrom - Myers Stuart - Postma Chiarot Interesting stuff, let the bitching about young guys not being gifted top-6 spots begin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unknown Poster Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 Just about to post the same. Surprised about Matthias in top six. Interesting. Taking it slow with rookies. But that third line....wow. Perreault and the kids. Love it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's gritty, I'll give it that... That would be a very good 3rd line. 50-60 point centre and a 20 goal scorer on the wing. Matthias is a decent player. He's huge, good defensively, and could probably score 15 goals if he plays with those guys all season. I'm most interested to see how the line with Perreault & the kids does.
