Matt Henderson: The Five Forward Power Play

Has Justin Schultz made that much of a difference or is it simply playing poopty teams over the past two games?

He scored a goal in the 7-0 win

No time to read the blog, but are you still suggesting you know better than the coaching staff and that Arco should be in over acton, or has the 3 wins in a row, outscoring their opponents 15-3 in that span, suggested to you that maybe it is working right now and that NHL coaches/GM's know more about hockey than bloggers???

The team as a whole has looked much better but as you say it may just be poor competition. We'll see if we can get 4-5 more wins over the next 2 weeks.

Theyre beating teams that they should be beating and doing so convincingly. If they beat some playoff bound teams then I will start being more enthusiastic.

Strange how the Oilers seem to have the Hawks number.

Yeah, I just meant overall in recent years it's been a pretty even regular season, series despite the big disparity in the standings between the 2.

Yeah. Even in that last game the team kept it pretty close. Hoping they can pull out a big win this time around!

Why do I Heff to wait so long to see Bryz play?

I know Dumbnyk has been better lately, but the Hawks will lite him up.

Better put in the Bryz Yo!

Good points, but the guy just got a bit of confidence back. That's gone again if he gets Lit.

If Bryz goes in and gets lit up, it's his first game and its against CHI.

Bryz can handle that and move on like he has many times after being shelled.

What's my deal??? It is a legitimate question for the blogger. You don't like it when people are questioned? Being accountable for what they write? I would reply to your lame attempt at an insult, but you more or less just looked stupid typing it so no need.

Is it weird that I read all of your posts in my head in Bryzgalov's voice?

Has Will Acton figured into those wins at all?

He brings his Ipod to the pre-game warm ups. He is a vital member of this team.

There might be something to be said for decent 4th line minutes.

Having the ability to roll 4 lines with the lead has been nice.

I don't know one way or another if arcobello would've been better, but the fact remains they've been winning and the 4th line has played it's role well. To say their contribution is meaningless is short sighted.

Its a team game the last time I checked. Was he a part of those teams that were dressed and played and won those games? Yes. Are you of the mind set that only those who get points, figure into the wins???

The 4th line seems to spend a lot of time in our own zone though....
