So Reaves talks to the media about how he "wishes he had a fight this year" even though he ducked Rempe and Scrabble. Benn cheap shot cross check on Matthews ribs when that's clearly in the area that's bothering him. Why is Reaves not challenging Benn? Cross checking him and seeing how many ribs he can break? Wtf is his role?

Edit: Not really relevant to why they lost this game or anything. Just tired of seeing Reaves in the lineup to provide nothing

Well. This is what we're going to be like when the top-end goaltending fails us.

He's a pylon. Has been since Vegas got rid of him. No surprise they won the Cup without him.

They should try playing 34/16/88 on separate lines. All three can drive a line for extended periods of time, as we've seen, with Matthews' injury this year.

McMann - Matthews - Robertson
Pacioretty - Tavares - Marner
Knies - Domi - Nylander
Lorentz - Kämpf - Dewar

Shuffle left wing to taste.

That looks like it could be a really good line. 88 in the middle though.. let him have the puck on his stick the most... let Domi go to the corners and Knies to the net.. and if they got 3rd pair D matchups... they would feast.

poop night for hockeying.

I didn't publish picks last night because both blue and white games looked like traps. Well, Tampa's surely was. Both looked like losses and I'd rather not do my picks than go against my Leafs. I'll pick a Tampa loss, but going against the Leafs breaks my heart and I can't do it.

It would've. Dallas was the better team last night. The first goal against Woll was soft. The team definitely misses McCabe because it's been forcing Benoit into the top-4 where he just doesn't really belong. He's a good 5/6 option.

We do need more consistency out of the forwards. Matthews came out on fire and cooled off. Marner came out on fire and cooled off. Nylander, ditto. I thought perhaps JT looked decent more of the game than not. I liked Domi's game yesterday but perhaps McMann wasn't quite as on as he is in other games. That line feels like it needs all three guys going to be going - if one guy is not going, it's going to cause some problems. The 4th line was a (frank)ing nightmare - once again Reaves should be watching the game and letting someone who can play hockey, play.

Sure.
Hitting the post, goalie, missing the net doesnt matter.
You gotta score to win and we are paying a lot of money to forwards...so they need to figure it out.
Obviously not gonna score every game the two games since the top line was a combined -17 have looked bad.

They are obviously the worst team that has ever been in 1st place in their division.

I hate them.

But a quarter inch the other way and they would have missed completely.
