lazy26 Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Why not take 82 games for 5th dman and 82 games for 6th dman for a total of 164 games and split it in 3 with Weaver, Tinordi and Beaulieu ? That is 54,666 games each... No ? Do we really want Beaulieu or Tinordi playing on their off-side when Weaver sits? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeLassister Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Do we really want Beaulieu or Tinordi playing on their off-side when Weaver sits? Against bottom feeders, I wouldn't really mind. Another option would be to play Markov off-side for a few games... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICEWATER77 Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 ..or sit markov against them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeLassister Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 ..or sit markov against them? Why not ? If Therrien believes that his team can win it without Markov and he accepts to be benched... If Markov can rest a few games this season while being healthy, I wouldn't cry over it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DON Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 But Markov dosent seem to realize he should rest more. He hasn't been hurt for over 2 years, just played more minutes than the year before and he still put up good offense come playoff time (but his d was bit shaky at times). But I agree, if Bergevin sent him on vacation for couple weeks prior to playoffs I would be pleased. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm talking more about a few games against, let's say, the Leafs, Buffalo, Calgary, Florida, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DON Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Guys just don't like being a healthy scratch and until are a lock for playoffs I wouldn't be resting players (of course other than Price), unless he is a 40+old vet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
