I’d be good with that Colorado deal. And I wouldn’t trade both Miller and Horvat, just one or the other. JT Miller seems to play really well and center.

I think EP in his own third line against third line guys might go well.

Is he really a centre though?

Annoys me he still can’t take his own faceoffs, are you a center or are you a winger, f**k me, pick one!!

He's taken about as many as JTM this year... he's just at 45% while Miller is nearly 60%

I still don't think Green would be able to stick with this more than a few shifts, but it would be fun to experiment, since the season is pretty much a write off at this point.

Hoglander-Miller-Boeser
Gaudette-Pettersson-Virtanen
Pearson-Horvat-Sutter
Roussel-Beagle-Hawryluk/Motte/ZacMac

Otherwise having Petey line up with Horvat and Pearson/JV sounds interesting too.

That’s exactly the problem, when your winger has as many face-offs as you do somethings wrong. Pettersson should have well over 250 face-offs taken by now. You can’t be a full-time NHL center in your third year and not take your own face-offs, get to the wing.

He is a winger.

I think he would probably serve the team better on the wing.

Find him a center then .

Bowie?
Jimothy Timothy?

He isn't strong enough to handle the centre position. Same kinda issues with him, as what were with Gaudette.

Anyone who is so stubborn they have one plan in life and stick to it at all costs, is quite frankly, an idiot

My plans change all the time as the world is constantly changing and evolving. I’m just guessing what will actually happen with the team.
- Pacificgem

I have no idea how Hextall got fired either.

His centre is currently in training in Utica.

I bet the gang eats straw when on vacation.

yes Vintsy...yes!!

We went through all this when Boeser was hot/cold and injured and such.

Put Petey in the top 6 and leave him there. Just needs the right combo.

You guys are out of your minds if you think EP is playing bottom 6 minutes. Ive seen a lot of bs on this board, but wow.

Because he's an idiot.

But a damn fine goalie in his day though.

I know I am not looking at this as a punishment, I am looking at going three lines strong. We are close once Pods comes in . Bo is a cross between a shut down guy and they can put up points . It would be nice to have three lines that keep the puck in the other end.

Ya not a good call for now. If Miller shows better at center keep him there with Hogs and Boeser for now and put Petey on the wing on Bo's line and Peasron. I would like to see that tried actually by Green.

But...Holtby will probably start next game and Petey will be with Sutter and Gaudette lol

Ok now do the defence, this little convo will help. Even a few graphs in there for your reading pleasure.

I hear you...but this is testy waters. I would much rather see Petey onj Bo's wing for now than 3LW minutes. My take.

Ya, what a horrible thought, having 3 solid lines that can score, all playing roughly 18 minutes a game.

That is a label only . Three lines playing almost equal time. Not 10 minutes for one of the lines and the other two 20.
