So, I'm irked by a few things. With Stan safe it feels like JC is way too safe and coaching for the future with his decisions and not for right now. That should never happen. Dach is looking great but I just disagree he is more dangerous on the PP than El Gato. He is going to be a fantastic passer, his strength will come, and he was possibly the best pick-up in his draft. Certainly for the best fit to Hawks.
Anyway...if I was coaching for now instead of next year with Stan whispering into my pillow at night like an insatiable Thai hooker...
Kuba-Lasers-Sad
Cat-Dach/Strome-Kane (I know, its the lesser of evils)
Sikura-Dach/Strome-Entwhistle (Murphy-DeHaan compliment, we really need two more power forwards that can play)
Jewels-Carp-Kampf
Keith-Caarlson
Murphy-DeHaan
Boqvist-Maata
1st PP
Cat-Kuba-Kane-Toews-Boqvist (Toews plays back as second D)
2nd PP
Dach-Saad-Keith-Strome-Sikura
This should be a good hockey team next year if they can trade away some future picks with some overpriced D men, re-sign Kubalik, and move on from Nylander. I'd prefer they moved on from JC but I'm not getting that sense. His lines still make little sense to be unless this is a development club, and I don't believe in that in professional sports. This isn't where you develop, you play to win every game, you fight for every inch, you strategize every advantage. There is no silver lining, you live and die each night even in regular season. Thats how you push guys to develop themselves and fight to be the best with every decision they make on the ice and at home.
