    Actually would say that Dahlin is a playmaker that likes to play a physical game.  And he's been that way since at least Junior.  

    He is NOT in the Phil Housley mold at all.

    A friend and I were sitting in the reds at the Aud on one of the end scoreboards.  It was 1985 or 86.  A lady in the row behind us was shouting out Philip-this and Philip-that, but I never made the connection.  At one point in the game, my friend yelled at Housley to hit one of the opposing players with his purse.  That lady tore into us.  It was Phil's mom.

    The biggest problem with the team is they are NON PHYSICAL! We cannot handle physical teams, especially ones that forecheck hard. Bush sucks and is now a liability and you do not want your best defenseman running around trying to lay people out. We will not win against the Jets and Preds as they are both physical heavy forechecking teams. We will play well as they can but we are a talent based team, not a physical team. Need to find that middle ground of talent and physicality. 

    After years of Dahlin being targeted and not having the muscle mass or experience to respond, I love that he's dishing it out and I hope that he continues to do so.  He's setting the example for the rest of the team to follow.

    Jokiharju, Asplund and Vinnie are in 

    Quinn, Peterka, Bryson scratched 

     

    Comrie in net

    I'm glad that Joker's back.  I also welcome another look at Asplund and Vinnie.  Quinn and JJP will benefit from the perspective that comes with taking a step back for a bit.  They were so good a few games back that I kept forgetting their rookie status.  Bryson is addition by subtraction, to be honest.  We'll see what Comrie brings against a fairly potent offense.  DG should have them ready.  LFG!
