Yes, I've known that for awhile

I can't think of a reason why I'd seek him out other than for his one, very specific, purpose

I believe that is what MDW does.

Gallant said Goodrow has resumed skating.

“Going in the right direction.”

Don’t think that means he’s playing in Game 5, but progress.

if Goodrow comes back and there are no other injuries, judging by the icetime last night, I'd say its Kakko out

That would be (frank)ing stupid.

c'mon guys. i love reaves but if you're going to sit someone for goodrow, especially against the incredibly fast canes, it's going to be him. not your 3rd year 2nd overall pick who you definitely need to figure it out and get going to help add secondary scoring in the playoffs. Rooney does nothing for me. So i could understand him sitting, but he's a GG guy so that shouldnt happen

game 5 would be a nice time for Bread to show up. Imagine we are doing all this without our best forward playing anywhere near his best level.

That would be (frank)ing stupid.

welp, one thing is everytime we started to get riled up about something like this happening, it works itself out and there was no reason to get riled up anyway

but bottom line, they need Goodrow in there

and I dont see them sitting Reaves

ok sir please sit Rooney then.

All of this is likely moot if we don't win the next game

the penalty killing has been great and Rooney is a big part of that

I like Reaves, a lot. But he brings absolutely nothing at this point. He barely plays. Trouba, Lindgren, Lafreniere can fill that roll as needed. Plenty of guys willing to stand up for themselves and their teammates. Reaves is definitely a deterrent, but he is honestly about as effective at helping to win hockey games as the poop Carolina pulls at the end of games they lost.

I am just taking the angle of what I think they'll do

4th line plug? I agree

I get that. Unfortunately you might be right.

my brother in christ. goodrow is certainly better at literally everything, including PK

absolutely, Goodrow can play anywhere and in big pressure spots, games 6 and 7 of this series are exactly why he was brought here

which is why it only makes sense to sit Rooney or Reaves. Kakko is an entirely different type of player that we need more out of which we won't get if he's in the box or on the 4th line
