We better not be. Kreider is a great player, but he doesn’t put us over the top and I’d definitely want to hold on to Bokk.

Yeah just floating stuff out. We have been playing much better as of late and if we somehow climb into the wildcard I think Army has to do something to show the team he’s doing his part. I’d trade Foley if I could but I think they’ll be wanting 1st round value for Kreider. Honestly I think we need another scorer for ROR and DP57. Not sure if Jaden will ever find his way out of the cave this year so I’m not counting on him.

Bah Gawd that's Jordan Kyrou's music!!! Seriously, he is about to get a legitimate shot on that line with Perron-ROR, especially with only 11 forwards tonight. I hope he finds his confidence and sticks. Was dominating the AHL so there's plenty of optimism. Just need to turn that hope into results.

I think we’ll make the playoffs, but it will be because of the mediocre and or disaster teams that we are chasing. Don’t worry about Schwartz either, he’s still driving play at a high level and his expected goals for is 10. Part of it is confidence and part of it is dumb luck, but his career shooting percentage of 13% says that he won’t be shooting 2.5% forever.

11 forwards games are so damn fun. I love seeing the weird line combos when Schwartz and Tarasenko double shift on lines with like Sundqvist and Barbashev.

Not sure what our record is but I'll just make it up - we have never lost a 11F-7D game

Now that Blues are hot and in a playoff run......maybe they will be buyers and take Zaitsev and Nylander from the Leafs

Agreed. A little too premature to ship out Bokk, and we do indeed need picks. Blues need to dump Maroon, JayBo, and Steen before they begin acquiring.

anddddd cue Berube's music who gives Kyrou 8 minutes when we have 11 forwards!

Haha yup. In a game where everyone was reckless with the puck (wasn't it 25 giveaways?), Kyrou got benched for being reckless with the puck. It wasn't like Kyrou looked good, but ffs let's give him a legit look while he's up.

Yeah it's bull****. I'd rather see him make mistakes out there then watch Maroon skate or - and listen I love how Sundqvist is playing at the moment - give Sunny 20+ minutes a game. I mean if Kyrou is here, give him 14+ minutes a game. If he isn't going to get that, why's he up here?
