However must give credit to the other 4 too..........right? Yet progress i would say over last year. They struggled here last year. Still lots of room for improvement. It's a start in the right direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well you said 5 on 5 so it must be done with his other teammates....to do that so i guess i should say still other 5 guys! Or unless Weise or Lehtera out there it would be only with those two anchors!! I wish he played better when they are down a man that would be huge too. I will say he has gotten better though.

Fair enough, but our PK has blown chunks for several years now, with different goalies. Mason also had the same disparity. So it's not really on Elliott, IMO. Dude has been amazing the past 15 games or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brelic Posted December 11, 2017 Author Share Posted December 11, 2017 And as if on cue, Elliott named 3rd star for the week. Schenn is 1st star lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big problem is that the PK has gotten worse. That's almost exclusively how they're losing these games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was actually doing well till the Flames game where they gave up 3 PP goals and the wheels have just fell off since....as as i stated might be time to relieve Lappy of his duties....you cut off the arm to save the body type of move. I hate it because as a player i loved him tough as nails type of guy especially after taking that puck to the face. However you have to put that aside now and it's about the team now not what you have done in the past as a player. Anyways Ron has to make the call on that...not an easy one by any means.

They were still only middle of the pack at best (80%). For them with the PK it's as much about timing as anything. I don't know what the answer is. Maybe it's Lappy... maybe it's the rookies. It's been significantly better since MacDonald's return (89% since he came back, 100% over the past 4 games). I assume not being able to ice 2 units without playing 2 rookies was a big problem during the Streak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brelic Posted December 18, 2017 Author Share Posted December 18, 2017 Well well, don't look now, but Carter Hart has some competition lol. Elliott named a star of the week (2nd star) for the second straight week. Do I hear 5 straight for Hart? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
