Perhaps, I hope so, but the issue isn't depth, it's effort, focus and discipline, imo. The same things that have plagued them through two management groups and three coaches. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

viking mama Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 DeSmith was text-book solid & gave up waaaaaayyyy fewer rebounds than Gustafsson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Buzzsaw- Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 By the... Zadorov wasn't interested in the fight... he knew the game was over and it was meaningless. He just held Maroon at arms length until he got tired and then wrapped him up like a Christmas present. I don't think Big Z likes to fight, he will do it when necessary, and probably with a lot more enthusiasm when the game is on the line and the team needs firing up. What Z likes is hits... Gonchar just needs to keep him from getting into headhunting mode and getting suspended. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't think teams would be interested in a rhd on pace for 39 points and +34? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Physically. Injuries. Mentally. All of the above? Mentally jives with what you’re saying - and I think that’s part of it for sure. But they need to wake up and realize the opportunity they have right now and go on a little run. Edited December 8, 2023 by The Duke 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Buzzsaw- Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 The only issue I had with this game is that Tocchet persists in his grudge against Kuzmenko. Kuzzy needs to be Pettersson and Mikheyev... not on the 4th line... Petey/Kuzzy/Mik is the line which works and which can produce. Forget the occasional defensive lapse, the number of goals they can score makes up for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah when much is given much is expected… Our leaders must be leaders… They gotta step up and get mentally tough that’s just how it is in the playoffs right? If they can’t do in the regular season they’re definitely not gonna do in the playoffs… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they can play above .600 through December, it'll go a long way to getting them to the post season. However, that's a talk order for them right now 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laff was playing well. One got promoted, one got demoted. Now you still have Laff playing well and Kuz not playing great. Why should Kuz get promoted back to the 1st line? What would that teach him? What would that teach the other players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
