Probably to early for a must win but Thursday is a must win before they head out on the road for 5 in a row

Sitting Rossi in his 3rd game after a stellar pre-season and TERRIBLE performance by most of the 'vets' through 2, and coupled with hardly any TOI with a few grinders is REALLY a TERRIBLE MESSAGE TO S

Jost looks pretty solid on line 1.  Now, if we could just get a Boldy, Rossi, Hartman line as an alternative.  PU would look good with EEK and then 4th line (that is where his skill would play) until Greenway returns.  I would bet these lines would 'perform' better in W/L - who cares about what Dean wants

Agree about Jost but then again playing with those 2 should make one better but so far it looks like he belongs. What’s up with Greenway? Any time frame when he’s back?

don't be angry we all knew last year was our only shot at it... and going forward it would be a long 3-5 years

It doesn't have to turn out that way if DE and BG would worry more about performance and potential than favoritism and 'earning your way' through AHL - this is an old time approach that winning teams avoid

Greenway and Merrill are practicing (from Russo), I think another week or two for each

Correct on all counts except Spurgy. He's been going downhill since even before last season.
Good luck moving Dumba when BG is defending him. 
I like putting Brodin with Addison so he at least doesn't have to babysit someone who's supposed to be a leader.

That just may do it 

Goligoski looks like his feet are frozen in the ice.  He turns slow, and got walked right after the goal.  Early last year he looked ok in terms of speed.  Now, he just looks slow and 'beer league' speed.  Our D just sucks.  18 goals in two games isn't just the goaltending.  12 goals for in 3 games doesn't normally equate to 3 Ls.

 

Kap is still worth the price of admission 😁
