Holy (frank)ing poop with Goodrow on the Panarin line. He drags down every line he's on that isn't the 4th. He's a very good 4th liner/PKer that can slot in on the 3rd if needed. He is slightly overpaid but is fine if utilized properly. Keep the kid in the (frank)ing lineup for gods sake

Gallant looking for the reason why he was fired.

Agree with all of this except Trocheck. He has been good just hits too many posts and has not meshed with Panarin

I don't see any way the Georgiev trade can be considered anything but a win. 3 draft picks for a guy we were releasing in about 2 weeks time? Come on.

Notice though I come back from ban, blog comment banter WAY up.

seriously, i mean this is gross:

Laf - Zib - Kakko
Panarin - Chytil - Goodrow
Kreider - Trocheck - Vesey

why can't krav play there? this team is at its best w/ goody as the 4C

Its funny that Vesey and Goodrow play the 4th line every where they have been but Gallant thinks now they are top 9 players? Is he high?

Because Gallant is stubborn as hell

Agree Tony. Sucks that Halak hasn't been up to snuff this year but the Georgy deal was a good one. Also agree that Trochek has been good too, just unlucky thus far

Yea that trade was fine. Got solid return there.

To be fair, Goodrow was on a very good 3rd line for 2 SC teams. That team was constructed much differently though. Goodrow does not do anything to warrant top 6 minutes

Nils tearing up the NHL btw, 5 pts in 23 games. 2.3 shooting %…hed fit right in

Granted I know I'm gonna get flack for having Gauthier on line 2. But in his limited time he draws penalties and create scoring chances. Have him go to the net, draw a defender and create space for Panarin and Trochek. Gallant in love with Goodrow as an anchor. Typical.

DQ and GG both love that cutesy move where you put a role player in the top 6. Fast is another example

If we had more center depth, Id have Panarin, Chytil, Trochek as line 2

I am fine with Kravs/Gauthier interchanging on the 2nd/3rd line. Either way could work

Fast at least had decent defensive zone impacts. Goodrow is a blackhole.
