bill didn't touch on this in his write up from last night, but i think it's worth noting that hak benched gudas the rest of the 3rd period after his poopty turnover turned into zac rinaldo's tying goal...because of course rinaldo. that's going with 5 d and mixing pairs for almost entire period because of a mistake by a veteran. will be interesting to see what happens tonight.

Hak should bench himself for thinking anything good was going to come from a Gudas/Manning pairing.

i am steamed he continues to roll that unit out there but he's not going to break up gost/provorov...so that leaves hagg/amac to split. is it a matter of rearranging deck chairs? kinda' seems like it.

gudas/amac
manning/hagg

gudas/hagg
manning/amac

i dunno. i guess it's worth trying SOMETHING.

nice to see sanheim get his first goal after being sent back. he potted 3 assists last night too. he's got a long way to go, but i'd rather see him over manning.

Agreed. I want Sanheim over Manning as well and, after the top pair, I’d like to see:

There is no magic group of defense pairings available to this coach, especially if Provorov/Gostisbehere is kept together.

It just seems to make the most sense. AMac is most effective when paired with a good puck moving, skilled partner and Hägg is an upgrade over Manning on the 3rd pair.

Perhaps Hextall should write a letter explaining to the fans that this team is (frank)ed with Neuvirth now being the #1 goalie.

Hell, it’s worth a shot.

i don't know that they'd believe it, since gost said he and lyon "did what they can do". coot's balls aside, this statement is really stuck in my craw.

hopefully neuvirth uses it as motivation. he's capable of being lights out as we all know.

Probably. Hexy likes his prospects well done and Hak loves his “reliable” veterans

He’s gotten hot and carried this team before. This would be a real good time to do it again.
