Neech Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Crazy how good that top 9 is for Pitt; what's listed as their third line would be the best line on most NHL teams, and the other two lines have the two top ppg guys of the last decade.

I know more about their bottom six players than their top six players. That's not a knock on their top six either. Just it's very young and guys like Crosby and Malkin don't need to be surrounded with superstar forwards (though it doesn't hurt Hornqvist to play with Malkin) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlbalr Posted January 19, 2017 Author Share Posted January 19, 2017 Pretty entertaining first period overall despite the one goal deficit. The Habs have been guilty of trying to be too pretty in the offensive zone a few times though. It's nice that they have confidence but against a top team, take the open shot when you get it instead of trying to set up the pass that sets up the pass that sets up a slightly better chance.

Chris Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Sleep walking again for the first 19 minutes. Pretty good last shift. I think i would put pacs with Danault, and Byron back with gally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlbalr Posted January 19, 2017 Author Share Posted January 19, 2017 Nearly five minutes for Redmond - it'll be interesting to see if they play him that much in the next couple of periods. If they were comfy playing him and Beaulieu for even 15 minutes, that would really help take some of the load off the Weber and Petry pairings.

dlbalr Posted January 19, 2017 Author Share Posted January 19, 2017 Tough second period for the Habs though the Andrighetto goal after Guentzel had made it 3-0 might give them a chance. They'll need to do a lot better at getting pucks through to the net though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Another dazzling display of both offense and defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zumpano21 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 I think we need the General back. To sit quietly in the corner of the dressing room, act surly and give everyone the stink eye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
