I have to say, this was probably one of my better previews in a while....but then team drama usually gives you something to write about. Hope you enjoy. Also, if you need a little uplift for your Friday, please enjoy a little Yo-Yo Ma (used in today's preview):

Thanks. That's beautiful. I never knew Bach wrote music for cello as well. The artistry reminds me of Kaprizov at his best. Perhaps we'll see skillful hockey at its best again. Feet and puck moving at a fast and unpredictable pace

It seems we will see these lines tonight according to Russo info:

Greenway-EEK-Foligno;

Kaprizov - Rask - Zuccarello;

Parise- Bjugstad- Fiala;

Sturm - Bonino - Rau.

 

Defense lines are the same;

 

Kahkonen in the net.

 

Sincerely, I would prefer to see Mayhew. It seems he is showing more speed and more havoc around the opposite net than some other players.

Bach was a musical genius. Sure everyone calls Mozart a genius, but actually he was a prodigy. So much if what Bach created became the foundation of Western music. His six cello suites are beautiful.

Watching Kap pass is just crazy.  He doesn't even look and re-directs pucks almost before they arrive.  And, in open ice, his ability to thread passes without staring them down all the way to the opponent's blue line through traffic is beautiful to watch.  He has skills that are extremely balanced.  He sure isn't a one-dimensional player.

by the looks of it passing is kappy's dna 

Wait to you see him really shoot.  That is what caught my eye a few years back.  He can smoke it with accuracy.  I saw a highlight film of many of his goals, and he will open eyes when he starts to really shoot.  He can and WILL score 40 in years where he has some HELP in getting him pucks ON TIME and IN POSITION TO SHOOT.  This has not been happening with enough regularity yet

I hate this Kinetico water commercial

Looks like it was made by my kids high school media arts class, too.  Spend some $ on a real script writer and director.  What did they pay, a ten-spot?

Also whose water actually looks like that anyways. It's not like everyone without a kinetico system has water like that.
