I don't disagree with that at all. I will take Jack, Sam, Middlestadt/E-Rod as our 1-2-3. But then we need 2 good to really good forwards.

I think we have a great first line. There’s A LOT of parts there to make lines 3-4 really dangerous and deep. Great foundation., But I think we’re missing an entire 2nd line..... not just a 2C. But can that be done this offseason? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CallawaySabres Posted February 28, 2019 Report Share Posted February 28, 2019 Why does that lineup look worse and worse every practice report I read.....Jesus, this team really needs A LOT of work. We have 4 guys on offense that would make a Stanley Cup roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Guy Posted February 28, 2019 Report Share Posted February 28, 2019 (edited) The last part about Sobotka and Scandella was the best part of all this. Otherwise...Okposo promoted to line 2 aside Sheary? Gag me. Let's go ahead and put Sam on the top line to further weaken our depth, too.

I don't understand why it took the coach 35 weeks to figure out Scandella and Sobotka suck.

Yes and because he insists on keeping the Top Line Together, when Reinhart was helping the second line perform much better. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put a decent-ish center on the line such as ERod and Sam will make him better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. At this point Jack and Sam on separate lines should be a foregone conclusion. Pommers with Jack & Jeff gives that line ~90% of the effectiveness of Sam with that pair, and Sam on the second line turns them from road kill into an offensive threat. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my mind, that’s the perfect line for Olofsson next season. He’s got the shot to convert from Eichel’s feeds and this season he’s shown he can feed passes as well. Playing with them would give him the space he needs to create and transition to the NHL game, all while adding to the scoresheet and presumably confidence. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rakish Posted February 28, 2019 Report Share Posted February 28, 2019 When Pominville plays with Eichel, they have a good record. If you cut off at 4 min, it's 13-6-3, if you cut at 5 min, is 12-6-3, at 6 min 12-5-3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
