Their expected goals against is 5 times worse than Cozens line, and on the ice for both goals against. Ice time slashed that period. Play Zemgus line more this period.

rickshaw Posted November 23, 2022 Report Share Posted November 23, 2022 Haven’t got the game here but nice to see Jost drop the mitts as well as the pushback when Cozens got hit. Now don’t blow this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The good thing about the fact we acquired a bunch of potential 2Cs (Krebs, Mittelstadt, Cozens, Savoie) is that it was always a reasonable strategy because it's a good odds-play. A couple of them not meeting the mark isn't disappointing, it's likely. But it also appears to have worked in accomplishing it's positive goal, too: Cozens looks like he'll be a damn good 2C to me. If Thompson holds up at 1C and Cozens is a good 2C, not only is that a reasonable spot to be in for your top 2Cs, we may end up w/some found money on Savoie. Like I've said a million times - the easiest way to find yourself with successful prospects is to limit the expectations of what you are asking for them. If Savoie only "needs" to become a good 3C... hey look out 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The coaching staff has a love affair with Mittelstadt.

But in this particular case, Skinner also took a matching penalty and the previous comment was about him getting a Gordie Howe hat trick.

Their expected goals against is 5 times worse than Cozens line, and on the ice for both goals against. Ice time slashed that period. Play Zemgus line more this period. I don't understand the makeup of that line other than as an odds-and-ends combined line. VO is a sniper who finds open space but needs a distributor/puck carrier, not a boards guy; Mitts can stickhandle, but doesn't rush up the ice or force anything to the center of the ice, nor win board battles; Hino is a forechecker has has speed, but he's also very much the 13F complimentary piece. It's just not a good construction. Each of them is the 3rd guy you put with two other forwards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
