Pucked in the head Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Stick to what works, not juggle the the lines cause they haven't scored in a shift or two ( a bit exaggerated, I know, but damn!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if I meant to type “putting Giroux back at center” or “putting Couturier back on the third line.” Probably the latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That could be true re: Laughton's line not being hemmed in as much (I don't have any stats to back that up), but other factors at play could be who the lines have matched up against and whether one line is getting more defensive zone starts than the other, particularly recently. Also, I don't think Simmonds has been all that strong since coming back. More than a few plays - offensively and defensively - where I deserved some blame. Especially on the game winner vs. Vegas.

Raffl/G/TK Lindblom/Patrick/Voracek Filppula or Weal/Couturier/Simmonds Lehtera/Laughton/Read or Leier Yeah, if we had a matchup against Pittsburgh, for example, I think it should be considered. The issues, again, are the third line. Weal gets eaten up defensively. If that line matches up against Malkin, would you want Weal there? Tough call.

Provorov/MacDonald Ghost/Hagg Sanheim/Gudas Manning I' m less concerned about defensive pairings, but I wouldn't have an issue with this, with the idea being to put Provorov and Ghost together if the game situation dictates (down by a goal late, etc.).

Or do you try something that will likely hurt offensive production but hopefully boost defense and give the Flyers more options for matchups - maybe even gain an edge if they can spread the wealth? And maybe that is how best to view the POs. Maybe it isn't so much about winning a round, but getting the experience. If that's the philosophy, then I would keep Giroux on the wing with Couturier as his center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watch clips on YouTube, but have never seen a full episode. Can’t even stream it. Even tried Kodi, but couldn’t find it. If anyone knows how to get it, please let me know. Just a PSA, but I recently learned that the first two seasons of Letterkenny are available on Hulu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
