In Jooris' place I see. I'd like to see that line with Jooris instead of Kuhn. That'll never happen unless he's injured.

ZAR’s aparantly close too. I’m very curious as to who Sullivan takes out between Kuhnhackl and Sheary to make room for ZAR.

Probably Sheary.

I don't think it will be Kuhnhackl just because Sully will want him for the PK. I disagree with that decision, but I'd be pleasantly surprised if it's him.

With his placement on the 4th line, could see Simon going right back out. Agree with Sheary as the other choice.

I can live with one bad roster decision on the 4th line. Thats not the end of the world, but I still hope it doesn’t happen.

You're right but man, the PK has been bad for a while. It couldn't hurt to try a different look. Especially if it means the 4th generates more offence.

Best I've ever had was in Van. Worst was in London, 1 piece with chips and a pint was 30 quid ~$60 CAD.

lol I'm going to London in May and Ive been doing a lot of homework on places to see and eat. From what Ive read, London isn't exactly the best place to get fish and chips, particularly in the touristy areas. Ive got my place picked out though.

Go for a curry! I can't say I've had it in London but that is their go-to dish. Especially if your imbibing!

I studied abroad in London. One of my favorite towns. Love the pubs on Fleet Street. You gotta go to Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese for a pint. I’d also recommend getting a pie sampler at The Old Bank of England.

There’s this Pub called The Hole in the Wall located in the circle where the giant iMax is that’s right beside where our dorms used to be. It’s a lot of fun. More of a local vibe and it’s right under the tracks so whenever a train goes by the whole place shakes. Get a Dumbar. Great beer.

My friend has lived there for 15 years. He took us to his favorite watering hole which wasn't touristy. He never claimed it had the best F&C's though. The price is what got me.

When in London you have to have Indian cuisine. Some of the best I've had.

You must of never tried any in Newfoundland. World's best.

Thank you for the recommendations. I will look into them.

Sadly I have't been to Nfld in a very long time. I still remember the best chicken fingers are on the Argentia ferry, as long as your arm. When you're 11.

This chick wrote a really awesome article on defensemen and the Norris.
- j.boyd919

My main take away was to win the Norris it's more important to be strong all-around than an elite defensive player and that all the top contenders were more likely to rank among the best offensively then defensively.

Nice to see how high Letang ranks in shot suppression both at ES and PK with Dumoulin also in the top 10 on the PK.

Researched this as well. Of course there are a lot of good places in London but this place has consistently had very good reviews and its very close to our hotel. That being said, my entire itinerary is written in pencil so who knows.

hahaha man I loved that ferry (Joseph and Clara Smallwood). Probably dropped over a thousand quarters in the arcade machines on it. I remember one year Street Fighter 2 had just came out and that's where I discovered it. The ferry ride was 14 hours and I probably spent 12 of those hours in the arcade playing that game.

I'd love to see him experiment with some different guys. The one reason he might is he said he'd like to get Brassard a few more minutes and so has given him a few odd PK shifts. I really like what I saw from ZAR there and Jake has done well when he was used there. So they have options, just seems like that's who Sully trusts.

Agree. I don't think it's optimal mainly because I don't see Kuhnhackl as a good penalty killer, but it isn't going to sink them. Having another good player on the 4th like Simon, Sheary, or ZAR will make it much more playable.

Yeah it was a long one. I seem to remember playing the original TMNT arcade game on it.

I think Sheahan has created some good looks the last few games for Kuhn and he's botched them. Any one of those guys you mentioned has a better chance of finishing.

Thought this was interesting from the Devils blog:

Hornqvist has piled up seven goals and 70 chances(!) over the course of his last 12 games. His goal total leads the Penguins in that span and his 70 chances are good for 1st in the entire NHL.

So no, he shouldn't move off Malkin's line.

If he was a heads up player, he'd cost about 8 mill a year....but hes a head down balls to the walls kinda guy...thats why his entries and passing leaves something to be desired.

haha man that was another goodie. Lots of 1/4s dropped in that one too.

He's definitely been all out since his return. Horny, Hags and Rust have been the most engaged night in and night out.

I don't think Horny knows how to slow down. He was probably the kid in elementary school that was bouncing of the walls and chewing on his desk during class.

He and Hags are proof that while it's preferable to enter the zone with control, you can still make dump and chase work. Those Swedes are amazing forecheckers.

Yeah Horny is a gamer. No matter what night it is , or what part of the season, he's playing with passion and giving it his all and thats the main reason I love him so much.

Hags is extremely hard working + world class speed...dangerous combo
