X. Benedict Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 Oh so now Roy shows up? It looks like he's had a good tourney, I just wonder if he has been playing more wing or center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksabre Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 It looks like he's had a good tourney, I just wonder if he has been playing more wing or center. Article on the last game has him on a line with Stamkos who is a righty, and St. Louis who is a lefty. Derek is also a lefty. It would make more sense to play Roy at center with Stamkos at left wing and St. Louis at right but I don't think that's what Lindy did, as the video says Stamkos was taking faceoffs, which means Roy must have been on wing. Second goal was with Heatley and Spezza, a left winger and center, respectively. If Roy really did play wing the whole game, then I hope Darcy and LQ are watching. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCtIcvjVgmg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YgUPRaNxvGQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carpandean Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 If Roy really did play wing the whole game, then I hope Darcy and LQ are watching. If they can find some way to acquire another top-two center, moving Roy over to left wing, that would solve two problems at once: depth at scoring-line center and a second legitimate top-six left winger behind Vanek.

Two or less Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 Canada just lost 2-1 to Russia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kristian Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 Well, Russia just won 2-1 after Canada mustered next to NO offense through 3 periods of play. Sure, Canada had some 40+ shots on goal, but I only counted 3 or 4 really good scoring chances throughout the game. Looked an awful lot like a Sabres game, with the highlight being Heatley putting the puck straight on a sprawled Bryzgalov in the 3rd, when he had the entire top shelf and right side of the net to shoot at. Well, at least in the offensive zone it looked like a Sabres game, Canada's D was solid but for one major mistake which cost them the game. The other Russian goal was a deflection on the PP.

I did not watch the final, just got home from work and saw the last minute or so, so i can't say if Ruff kept the lines the same. Against Sweden he definitely played with Spezza and Heatley though.

He didn't. He had Doan with Heatley and Spezza for at least the first two periods, and Roy was playing on a line with St. Louis most of the game. Never saw who the no. 3 guy was, would you believe it, but then again I wasn't really paying attention to the line combo's except the Heatley line, which seemingly got the most ice time or created the most established pressure in the offensive zone.

Actually, I wasn't correcting you I was just answering your question as to whether he kept the line combos from the Sweden game. Hence the remark about Doan centering Heatley and Spezza. That line was intact through most of the game today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
