Filppula was fine
Lehterä was meh
Weise was awful

- BiggE


They need to put one of those sensors on Weise's finger and make sure he has a pulse. I don't see any energy out there from him. So disappointing.

Would love to see NAK get a look, but unless someone else gets hurt, I doubt it happens

But when are they firing Hak?
- funmaster18

i have some problems with Hak but he definitely isn't incompetent out there. i think he is growing in the NHL as much as the team is.

the sooner that atrocious 4th line is addressed, i think you see less Hak hating.

He even blocked 2 of his own teams shots.. in addition to 7 or 8 failed clears and 4 or 5 turnovers.

He’s just flat out bad. As soon as TK comes back, he has to sit. There is no way he should be playing before Leier. The guy has less heart than the Tin Man

I agree but I didn't like Leir tonight either. Can't wait til we are healthy so both can be out of the lineup and lindblom can stay 😍

Agreed. Funny how more talent usually makes a coach look better.

No way they didn't score there on that empty netter... Are you (frank)ing kidding me? Flyers haha. This team is amazing in more ways than one hahaha

I wouldn't mind them being a little selfish when they're looking at an open net.

That's the responsibility of the GM, not the coach. There is no reason whatsoever to hate Hak at this point.

The fact that he continues to put that line out there with 5mins or less to hold a lead, AND benches ghost is puzzling to me...But he's done a lot of good things this year which seems promising to me.

solid win. Man this team is on fire right now. 2 hurt goalies and 2 hurt top 6 forwards can't stop us.

Nj loses But we need Florida to come back and win vs wash here.

What do you think they'll say when Sanheim finally comes back up? "He needed to learn how to play/get his confidence back".

Probably, and it would be an accurate statement.

Liked the way Mrazek looked. Excited to see what a they can do with his puck handling ability. He’s a twitchy bugger...like Patrick Roy

It hurts my head to scoreboard every night. All that matters is that we continue to play well. If we do, everything else will work itself out.

it is Hexy's job to fill out the roster with NHL caliber talent. and he really has addressed the depth issues via the draft. we're just beginning to see the rewards of a patient, draft and develop approach with a little luck sprinkled in (jumping to 2nd overall in the draft).

Hak is mostly working with what he's got and maybe he's using the fourth line so much to save energy for our top guys. it does look like we're going to make some kind of playoff run this year. i don't know. but i am tired of seeing those guys get routinely put out on the ice in key situations this late in the season.

Benches is a little strong. It amounts to two shifts. Gudas and MacDonald each played one shift with Provorov in the last 5 minutes.

Ha ha. As long as he stops the puck, I’ll be happy.
