I like...
I like the "Big Line" if Rocco is skating and Alfie is shooting high! #11 has had a bundle of chances lately where he is too gassed to get the puck up but we still would love to see 400 @home.
I like this second line of #22; #14 and #7; Turris should get some shooting with these guys.
Update: Alfie with Turris I'm OK with this also.
I would like to see the "Daug" get a couple shifts with Nick and ZacK.
I like the look of Zman and Neil out there together, they look like a throw back to the 70's, no feet, no hands but very effective hockey players in their own way.
I would like "Karl" to stop reading his press clippings and get back down to business.
I like Alex in the net tonight, "Andy" looks tired...we gotta get him some rest.
I would like #4 to sit one more game because if it's a groin a mid-season rest is as good as anything you can do for it.
Update: Phillips and Lee...if you are good enough to play you are not hurt!
I would like our PP play to dumb it down...SHOOT the $%^&*# PUCK! Not WIDE...Not HIGH...Not BACK IN THE CORNER...but TWO FEET OFF THE ICE ON THE NET! How you do this is...don't dink with it. Shoot quickly before the box closes!

"Epidemic" says Colie Campbell
Epidemic says Colie Campbell then he says not quite...
Maclean says: "I don't know but ya got 35 guys out!" all starters.
Colie says: "Gregory has had 4 or 5 concussions at every level on the way up but he heals quick and is back each time in a couple of weeks." Colie by my estimates has been concussed at least 4 times during his career. They must have some doozies of a conversation talking about head trauma!
Colie says: "The League (Chris King/multiple concussions) is looking at eight questions, they want answers to." I wonder what they are?
I'm older and played before both these guys. Because I was a hockey/football thing (one each) I got looked at by two doctors, there was politics even then one sport blaming the other but both were unanimous in stating the second concussion is the problem...it's damage to the already damaged brain. Remember, this is 45 years ago and everyone was studying the problem...talk about a poor show when Colie Campbell has to tell ya he hasn't a clue as to what to do...but don't slow the game down and don't suspend the stars...and we can't afford to give 'em more space to play in!
"Call the shots!"..."Call the HEAD SHOTS!"

Thanks Eugene!
Just like Alfie says:"Thanks Eugene!" But what a way to welcome the new score clock.
"Andy" your brutal! Catch the puck or cheat to the far post, do something...
Neil has got ZacK dumbed down to where he has lost all his creativity, they, the Bingo line, got one shift and looked pretty good. Note: ZacK scored on a line change.
"Karl" you are sleeping...
Not a big fan of the "Big Line!"
Turris, you are looking good but it's time to do something...
Montreal has not broke a stick in 2-3 games, we break 3-4 a game. What gives??
Our PP break it up and throw it away...start over again...
We are playing like a team that has a playoff spot wrapped up with 45 games to go...

The Experiments go on...
9mm; "Rocco"; Alfie
"Gino"; the "Shooter"; Butts
"Cy"; ZacK; Neil
Cons; Zman; "Daug"
Kuba; "Karl"
Jared; Gonch
Lee; Carks...Philly has a sore paw!
"Andy" and Alex
I don't know why they didn't go all the way and switch Zman and Zack making the Bingo Line the 4th line because tonight vs the Habs you know they (Montreal) need a win bad so we shall spend the night in the penalty box and thus have our Bingo Kill Team rested and ready for action and not being on the ice for the phantom calls on themselves. Last game our only goal was ZacK shorthanded!
I wouldn't put two right wingers with Rocco but "Butts" really needs his big full chance...
Against Price ya need your "sharpshooters" so anyone who is holding the puck change 'em out.
Definition of an "old guy"...old glasses-new clock, looking for a better viewing result!

Kyle Turris...
Kyle Turris was my xmas present and I like the gift very much...
Now for my birthday I would like a healthy and energized 9mm...
Alfie making the second line into Line One A...
That Zack gets his Bingo boys, #23 and #22 back with him again, it really is the most potent offensive configuration for a third line we have...it kinda got lost in the xmas shopping...
Chris Neil is a forth line/PP specialist because when his ice time is limited he throws only the big legal hits but has lots of energy for the net front on the PP...
And we could always use a forty goal scoring left winger...maybe next year?
Note to Coach Paul...SENs fans and I love to hear about how much you skate them...they usta say it was good for the "Old" guys...it's good for the young guys too!
"Cy"; Rocco; 9mm
"Geno"; the "Shooter"; Alfie
"Cons"; ZacK; "Daug"
Butts; Zman; Neiler
#17; #65
#2; #55
#4; #39/#5
"Andy" and Alex

A point for "Andy!"
Tired, I have never seen a team so tired!
Nice game Andy, you were terrific.
I'm sure they heat up the ice and the puck there...bush league.
Jason needs 9mm's energy and ability to back off their defence @ the offensive blue line.
Alfie will go back to helping Foligno and Turris will think he's just gone to heaven.
Like I always say: "Ya know you're in trouble when Kuba is your best DEFENCEMAN!" Nice game Fillip.
We all love Chris Neil but he and Zack have no chemistry. #25 cannot handle the puck well enough. Paul if you want secondary scoring, break 'em up!
If nothing else the Daug will improve the 4th line to the point of checking any of the opponents best lines. Zman is better than you think...
The verdict is still out on Butts??
Right now until we need the heavy artillery, I would play Lee.
14/19/9
71/7/11
22/15/25
23/28/16
17/65
2/55
4/5
41/35
Let's get the Habs when they are down, they would do the same for us.

Tough break #13!
It's a tough break for Petr Regin but as I tried to tell ya, once that shoulder goes the second time it's over because even if you do return it drastically effects your play. I had the worst premonition when Petr changed to #13 because I really liked his play, things fell his way in the playoffs and for him to tempt fate like that for nothing. That is why athletes are superstitious.
Coach Paul, you are going to have to roll three and two thirds into four lines so give Butts a couple shifts with "the Shooter" and Nick. Bring Condra down and the "Daug" up to play with Zack, they were the best line against Florida the last time in case you forgot. Z-man and Neil continue to get some PP time...that's if we ever get a man advantage...
7D, I'd play Phillips on the wing, he usta be one (for most of one season) ya know...JOKE!
Tonight, anybody gets a brain dead stick foul gets fined...it's the only thing that can beat us tonight!
