Sorry about the JAG comments. Just can't wait for these two guys to be off the team.
-
Those seem like the logical ones to me with the current roster, and each line scored a goal last night. How would you line them up differently? The only one I could see would be swapping Kane and McGinn, but ROR and McGinn generally play pretty well together.
Agree switch Kane and Mcginn. Also would flip Foligno and Gionta. Then put the two JAGS on the third line.
-
Those lines again. Sick of DB' s line combos.
-
Damn - he's just a Just a Guy.
Harsh.
:P
Lol didn't even put that together.
-
Sorry, but McGinn is just a JAG. If that is the skill level of a player you want in a top six then this team will never make the playoffs. IMO we already have two players on this team who provide the same talent/skill that Mcginn does in Foligno and Nic44 and in all honesty all three can be traded for all I care.
-
It's actually pronounced "Lie-neh" from what I've gathered. Would love him here either way.
Thanks, I've heard it pronounced about four different ways. Then give me Puljujarvi lol
-
Personally, I like Puljujarvi. Then again, I'm really not the draft expert. That's Crusader, Hoss, and Liger, to name a few[/quote
Puljujarvi is my personal choice for this draft if I'm not drating first. Really both of the Finns are built to play on Jack's wing. The one thing I find interesting is how similar Patrick Kane and Patrick Laine' s sound. Maybe its fate we get Laine just because of the name similarity.
-
Randomly, but who do you have after Matthews? Mainly, do you like Puljujarvi or Laine?
Yes, please let us get one of the Finns!!!
-
Well said
And, as nfreeman says, it's really McDavid that tips the scales here. Here's the real question
McDavid + Reinhart or Ekblad + Eichel?
Thats a good question right there, but of course McD with Rhino feeding him on the wing. But what do you guys think of Eichel with Bennett as his winger? That one could of been dangerous.
-
Obviously taking Mcdavid overall, but when it comes to the Ekblad draft I'm still taking Samson every day of the week. Samson is going to be a assist machine once he gets it going. The fact he is looking like a 20-25 goal scorer in his rookie year is even more promising.
-
I like it, I like it a lot. My burning hatred for Gionta has me switching him with Foligno though
I'm ok with that. Foligno has been good lately. Does anybody know why Gionta is taking so many faceoffs? With all the centers on this team it just seems counterproductive.
-
I hate what has been going on with these lines, since the beginning of the season. It's actually pretty easy to put together four lines.
Moulson/O'Reilly/Reinhart
Gus/Eichel/Ennis
Mcginn/Larsson/Gionta
Nick/Legwand/Foligno
That's how you do it.
-
Reinhart/O'Reilly/Moulson
Kane/Eichel/Ennis (the try and keep up line)
Zemgus/Larsson/Gionta
Nicholas/Legwand/Foligno
These are my lines if I'm DDB. Lines one and two get flip flopped when Jack is ready. McGinn can be traded.
-
Hopefully the whole team is sitting around taking dabs and watching game film on days off. In all seriousness Cox is idiot. Kane will be great for us in time. He had major surgery, give the kid a minute.
-
Nice first period for the boys. Once this team learns how to play with each other, they could be really dangerous.
-
@BuffNewsVogl: Big changes to Sabres' lines: Girgensons-O'Reilly-Ennis, Kane-Eichel-McGinn, Moulson-Larsson-Foligno, Deslauriers-Legwand-Reinhart.
Hmmm.. those are interesting. After seeing those lines I retract my Samson will get 2pts post from earlier.
-
I'm actually glad its an afternoon game, so I can watch my Hurricanes get whooped tonight by the Noles. FIRE AL GOLDEN and GO SABRES!!! Oh yeah Samson gets 2pts today on assists to Eichel and Kane. Score 3-2 Sabres.
-
SAMSON!!!
-
When does EA normally put out the first roster update? Sick of not having Jack on my team. RoR doesn't cut it for me, in real life or the game.
-
I know who its not going to be, Ryan O'Reilly. Kane for goals and Ennis for points.
-
According to the Internet Crosby and Ovechkin weren't in NHL 06 until roster updates were put in. A Reddit thread said he finished the final roster update as an 87 and was a 91 in NHL 07's release.
Most said he was a mid/low 80s player when first added. So probably right in the McDavid range.
Hmmm, thats interesting. Thanks for looking that up. Makes me wonder why they have Samson' s numbers at 74. I was thinking more like 77-79.
-
Probably in the same range. Somewhere between 80 and 83 I'd guess.
Thanks Hoss! That's what I was thinking. Do you happen to know what Crosby/Ovechkin' s ratings were their rookie year?
-
So I bought nhl 16 last night. What an upgrade over last years. I noticed they have Mcdavid rated at 83, what do you think Eichel will be rated at?
-
Any word on 3x3 scrimmage going on?

Thanks guys. Just didn't want to be the Debbie downer guy. It's just we have seen what those two have to offer and IMO its not much. I'm just ready for the influx of youth. Can't wait to see Hudson and Bailey in blue and gold. IMO Foligno on Jack's line is a waste and might even be a negative to Jack's development. Much rather see Larsson on his wing.
