He’s been fantastic all season. He is on pace for 43/44 goal season in a 82 game season ... thus far this season is an outlier ... doesn't mean he can't do it again, just that he never has ... hopefully he has finally landed in the right situation and can be a consistent 35-40 goal scorer (or better) ... if so his contract is a ridiculous bargain ... 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably an outlier, but it *is* interesting how much better he’s been since moving to Canadian markets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are the defensive lapses a consequence of that? (E.g., D pinching or something?) Or are we just overmatched by the Sens’ speed? Hmm, not sure, I'll have to watch for that. It seems like they're standing farther away from the boards and closer to mid ice. That way any cross ice pass arent as long and their shots are closer and from better more dangerous spots. Its also blatantly obvious they should shoot, and they are vs stopping the puck and accepting a pass. The Sens speed could also be a factor. The Sens actually worry me, they might be crappy now, but they'll have a good team fairly quickly. They have a lot of young ECLs doing well and that will be trend for several years.

The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Two guys who have upped their games amidst injury devastation are Armia and Suzuki. 1 minute ago, Sir_Boagalott said: Hmm, not sure, I'll have to watch for that.

Yes, I suspect we will be watching the Sens with envy for many years. Sigh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trizzak Posted May 2, 2021 Author Share Posted May 2, 2021 I dunno if that's on Frolik for dragging ass back to the bench or for the Hab that hopped over the boards jumping the gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both players have been playing really well these past few games! ON a different note, why do I have a sinking feeling that we will lose once more to the Sens? Why can't we win two games in a row?

Sir_Boagalott Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 What the what - yet another too many men on the ice. I've been high on Armia from the moment they drafted kk. He's a very under rated player - and that in itself is a good reason to like him. i.e. I'm sure he could be signed for cheap and he'd produce at least double what he's paid, more likely triple and possibly up to 4 times. ex: sign him for 1.5mil/yr, he'll get at least 30+ pts, if not 40-45 and possibly 55-60.

IMO eagerness is more forgivable than lack of effort ... if this wasn't such a compressed season I would suggest the entire team "skate" at the next practice for every instance of lollygagging on a change ... peer pressure would put an end to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfredoh2009 Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 1-0 after two, and I am glad the Sens didn’t score on that bad between the legs back pass by mini-me Caufield seems to still be adapting and manages to get scoring chances none the less. I do not want to see Romanov fighting, wish we had a less important player do that type of thing I agree that the oldies goldies line seems to feed off each other, just need a bit of puck luck to score not liking the lack of speed, but optimistic they can come back if they show more urgency Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
