You think Ginger had a sloppy game?Hockey Widow wrote:I thought it was a really boring game. I wasn't really impressed with anyone. Ginger had a horribly sloppy game and I hate sloppy men.
I wonder if Booth will become the new whipping boy for AV, at least until Ballard gets back. I think the best Booth played was when he was on a line with Kesler and Higgins. I'd like to see that line back which means, I know Raymond has to drop back to the third line, Unless you want to switch him and Burrows for a bit and see what happens.
I just don't see the team playing well right now. We do have a relatively easy finish to the season and should rack up some points, well after Thursday game anyway.

It will help a lot that he's back on the power play.donlever wrote:...yeah it's to bad Raymond can't pot a few more goals (points) to get the detractors off his back.
That was July 1st wasn't it Mëds ? Klitt was a mess.Mëds wrote:

Finally, someone with a little insight, for sight or just plain seeing the light. I'm surprised that everyone wants to just throw the exact same type of players on the same line, I mean, what fucking good is that? I really like the potential of a Kesler, Kassian, Raymond line, you saw a little bit of that last night. 3 different players who when together have all the elements of what you want in a line, not just the one dimensional combination of Booth, Higgins and Kesler.Listercat wrote:HW I disagree with your assessment of the Kesler line. With Higgins, Booth and Kes You have 3 grinding type players who are not particularly good playmakers. They are all pretty much north - south players with little finesse. Raymond can add that dimension although last night was not one of his better efforts in that regard. His critics slam him for not doing things that were never part of his game and never will be. His game is speed, passing and puck control and when he is on he is very good at it. Lately he seems to be trying to do too much to get that line going.
I liked the play of Kassian on the line with Kedler and Raymond. I think AV is experimenting to see how the various part can be interchanged. As others have said hopefully Pahlsson can take some of the "checking" pressure off Kesler and allow that line to press offensively. He still seems to have decent speed and certainly has the intelligence for his role.
Oh, right FA day.....could be.Blob Mckenzie wrote:That was July 1st wasn't it Mëds ? Klitt was a mess.Mëds wrote:

One thing I will say about Raymond - and I will happily cut him a mile of slack given his back injury and even given his injuries during the regular season last year - is that in 09-10 he did take the puck to the front of the net, or go there looking for opportunities, with far more consistency than he has since.Listercat wrote:Raymond can add that dimension although last night was not one of his better efforts in that regard.
