LINES GOING FORWARD

[strudwickisthebest]

What's done is done. Hopefully Stepan can come back and help this team win a Cup.

With that said the team is 6 wins away. Any team they field has a chance to won 6 games


Kreider - Miller/Moore/Brassard - Nash

Hagelin - Richards - St. Louis

Pouliot - Moore/Miller-Brassard - Zuccarello

Dorsett - Boyle - Fast/Miller




- Moore can hold his own, make some good passes. It would be sick is Miller played over his head and made the 1st line lethal.

- Doubt AV tries Brassard on the top line, even though Brassard and Nash have history together

I think he'll put Brass right back between Pouliot and Zucc. That has been our best line, so I think AV keeps it together.

Not sure I see him playing Miller at C either. Does he simply put Moore between Kreider and Nash? Not sure. Does he try Moore with Hags and MSL and play Richards with Kreider and Nash?

Not sure what AV will do. I think Miller is on the 4th line with Boyle and Dorsett, but who knows really.

It will be very interesting to see how AV puts his top 9 together. Moore in top 9 for Stepan I think is most likely because I just don't see him putting Miller at C in game 4 of the ECF. And that is not ideal as we have seen with Moore. He is not a top 9 guy. Maybe for a short time in a pinch, but now his 4th straight game in the top 9, and it isn't ideal.

We'll see though.

Stepan was not making Kreider or Nash better, and I'm not saying losing him is a blessing as he's a good player, but right now I don't think Miller will do much less of a job if any, wherever he is. He's more physical, quicker, in shape etc.

 

[chuckd3534]

Kreider is taking a maintenance day. (Zipay)

The lines at practice are (Leonard):

Carl Hagelin, Brad Richards, Marty St. Louis
Jesper Fast, Dominic Moore, Rick Nash
Benoit Pouliot, Derick Brassard, Mats Zuccarello
JT Miller, Brian Boyle, Derek Dorsett

 

[chuckd3534]

So it appears Moore will center Kreider and Nash. Miller on the 4th line. Makes sense. I didn't see them putting Miller at C on the 1st line.

 

[strudwickisthebest]

Moore hasn't played bad. He actually makes some nice passes. Not a bad temporary fill in.

Also, i think Miller scores tomorrow night. Dorsett has been close too.

Now that I would love to see also Al and when subban tries to whack kreider with his stick doing his zorro impersonation I'd like kreider to rip it out of his hands and break it over his head

 

[Messiah717]

I can't stand Subban. He's a phony and pretends to go the sportsmanship route.

 

[chuckd3534]

Funny how the biggest BS series of them all has been this one. The one where we have hated the other team the most and thought their team was full of sh*t has been this one.

Crazy considering the other two series were against big rivals.

If he was going to get suspended anyway I wish Carcillo would've leveled somebody.
