Okay nvm I apologize to Lybushkin didnt see Coyle hit Sammy

But Bertuzzi why did you do that lul. Dont be taking lessons from Domi

He's gonna be a 20 + goal scorer next year 100%

Even put aside the fact that he's had two of our best chances despite not being able to bury them - he looks composed out there. They had me tearing my hair out with how often they were just dumping the puck in for a giveaway, but on multiple occasions he would be in a position to do that and instead play it back to keep possession and still get a change in.

I can't believe how often Marchand gets away with diving. Anything hits him and he's toppling over. ****ing rat

Two things I feel I need to share.

1) Sammy had a good game, I have been very sour on him and he still worries me but he played well.

2) Edmunson had a quiet and effective game. So long as he keeps it simple he can be decent.

Big win, let's go

No no no. Edmunson needs to sit. He has not been good at all

I was angry with Sammy all game 1 and period 1 here, but after that he was pretty lights out which was encouraging. Good stuff

Everyone top to bottom was good. Could we nitpick yes but meh we won who cares

Just tone down the temper to not give BOS easy PP's.

Liked the physicality, liked the big lines stepping up, liked everyone stepping up after that awful last min to period 1

And if they can play like that Game 3, 4, and 5 they set especially if Willy returns

Willy will be such a difference maker, I bet he's good to go for game 3. An extra night will help.

Good win all around, if they can play like that for the rest of the series I think they can pull off the win here. Definitely don’t want to get overconfident but if they play like we know they can, they got this.

To me put him with Matthews next year. We cant bring back Bertuzzi anyway if we want to improve this Dcore why cant he play with him

Like if Robertson had 14 goals and 13 assists for 27 points in 56 games if we give him more mins and he plays all 82 games I could see a 20-25 goal 50 point guy easily

Can apply the same to McMann (when healthy) and other guys one day.

I like this idea. Also..consider how Robbie will look under a different coach. Actually that can be applied to all the young players on this team.

Also I don't love marner, I just don't make up reasons to hate him. If he doesn't figure out the playoffs this year then he may have to be traded but I certainly hope he figures it out.

Blaming Marner for that Pastrnak goal is crazy, that lands on Benoits shoulders.

Marner is a great player whose given a short leash. He's either forced to be Matthews' personal assistant or carry the load of Tavares and Knies. Under another coaches system, Marner would pot 40 goals.

If we were to trade him (which would be a huge mistake), I actually don't hate Random2152 's idea. I'd love to get Doan out of Arizona / Utah, big fan of that kid. I think Crouse would be an unmitigated disaster under Keefe though, he seems to struggle with players like that. Unless you are a low maintenance speedy 2 way winger, you won't find success under Keefe. He completely fails to utilize those wildcard players to their strengths. The only teams that make sense for Marner IMO are New Jersey and Utah. Again though, I'd be crushed to see him dealt

He's not figured it out for the past 8 years... What makes you think he'll figure it out now while playing top 6...

Give him bottom 6 comp, like PLD and Lindholm and nurse his confidence when Willy comes back...

Gotta give flowers to Lyubushkin as well...

He played fantastic last night

It's not a confidence issue with him right now. I don't think his ankle is 100% yet. His edge work just isn't as strong as we have seen. Hopefully he'll get better each game as he gets his strength back.
