<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheJoeMan</b></div><div>Totally agree with this. Terry has been driving me crazy this year. It's funny, I remember watching him in the Frozen Four a few years ago thinking, "Man this kid the most talented player on the ice but he holds onto the puck a lot. Not sure that's gonna work in the NHL." He doesn't have Getzy's size to be able to shield off defenders allowing him the time and space to justify holding onto the puck that long. And every time I see him and Getzy together it's like "Welp, I guess no one is going to shoot the puck on this line." Terry watching the game from the press box, or even playing in San Diego for a game or two, might light a fire under his ass to get him to be more assertive with the puck.</div></div>

I love Terry but I think you are absolutely spot on with this. Send him down to SD for a couple games and see what he does. Tell him you are looking for him to shoot a little more often instead of the pass first mentality.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheJoeMan</b></div><div>I think Steel is best utilized at center though I get the impulse to give him a better opportunity being on the top line. I think Shore has no place on this team. Not talented enough to be a top-6 guy and not fast and gritty enough to be a bottom-6 guy. Comtois brings the most effort and generates the most chances of our young guys so I wouldn't take him out of the lineup. He can swap with Jones though. I'm starting to worry that kid just doesn't have the hands for the bigs.</div></div>

I am with you %100. I just saw what an impact that line had against Chicago on Sunday night and I would love to see if for a full game and go from there. I'm indifferent with Shore. I thought he played well in the first 2 games but after that its been kind of shakey. Fair enough, I love Comtois but didn't think he would be utilized great on the 4th line. I would love to see this team to start burying some of their chances though.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jah1722</b></div><div>I don’t mind moving Steel to the wing for a couple games. Bring up Lundestrom to for the all Swede line. And Comtois over Terry. Terry needs to sit. He won’t shoot the puck. Need to find a way to get thru to him. Sit him a game and see if he figure sit out. Had the puck in the slot twice last night and didn’t shoot either time.</div></div>

You make a good point on bringing Lundestrom up. Terry reminds me of Getzlaf and not wanting to shoot. I still don't think I would sit Terry though. Maybe sit Jones instead of Terry and bring Comtois back in the lineup.
