Don't like Dorsett and Prust on the same line personally, if Vey isn't there.

Sedin Sedin Vrbata
Baertchi Horvat Hansen
Prust Sutter Burrows
Gaunce McCann Dorsett

Edler Tanev
Hamhuis Hutton
Bartowski Pedan

Vey/Grenier/Corrado

Miller
Markstrom

To me that spreads scoring out a little better an every line (except the 1st) has a bit of sandpaper, speed and skill on it and it avoids having a goon 4th line.

The main thing is , so far these have been the 23 best players

Considering Vey could very well be competing with McCann for a spot and has a year of NHL experience under his belt, it does not bode well that he didn't stand out at all. He wasn't bad, just quiet.

That said, we're two preseason games in. Still lots of time for guys to find their game or drop down a peg.

I wasn't impressed with Kenins tonight

I think Vey has a better chance of beating out Sven than he does against MCCann

Not bad but could you fix the D?
- CubanBuffet


Sure... Higgins, Subban and Hamhuis to Anaheim for Vatanen + 2nd and a 3rd

Me either. I can't figure out why he was with the Sedins. When he was effective last year it was as a bottom six forward that hit everything that moved, Ferkland style, but he got into trouble when he took risks offensively. He got benched for doing it, but now he's getting ice with the Sedins?

I'd like to see him get a couple more games in the bottom six.

I hope they send him down and make room for Grenier or Gaunce

If Vey can play wing I agree, they're basically the same style player.

No, can't do it. I like Vatanen, but your giving up two D for one, thinning out an area that is already scary thin.

Plus Vatanen is too close to Virtanen. Have mercy on the poor play by play guys.

I know we didn't see it tonight but I heard that Pedan has a very big hard shot

Really, I thought he had more jump than most tonight, a few hits. Although I don't think he meshes well with the twins.

That's my ideal line up with this group but then again I don't buy the meat and potatoes ideology.

Sedins Vrbata
Baertschi Horvat Burrows
Kenins Sutter Vey
Higgins McCann Hansen
Prust/Dorsett

Hey, if Cherry can learn to say Bieksa instead of Bieska then Shorthouse, Hughson and the rest can learn to say Vatanen and Virtanen

I know you specified "your" ideal lineup, but with this management and coaching staff Dorsett and Prust have a better chance of supplanting the Sedins as 1st line than being healthy scratches.

That Hit by Yannick Weber on the Ref



- classic321


Classic, it's like the coach told him we need to hit that guy. Texas high school football anyone?

Its not like the ref died. It was a bit weird the Nuck just looked like he was laying out a Shark on the play!

Corrado didn't help his cause. Neither did JV.

McCann Hutton and Gaunce seem to be the front runners

- VANTEL

McCann handles the puck very well and Hutton has been a nice surprise. Gaunce looks like he really wants it and it's showing in his game. The Higgins injury could not have happened at a better time for him.

Corrado and JV did look a bit stale but give em a few more games and we'll see.

That's my opinion after the first 2 games.

I hope we can regain a 2nd for Vey. Too much like kyle wellwood.
