I trust Richards with possession of a puck than Desjardins or Bickell. He can QB the forecheck more efficiently than his line mates. Even though I think Bickell's wrister is decent, his accuracy tends to hit crests on jerseys rather than corners of the net.

Good point. I wasn't considering who is on his line tonight.

I dislike that Desj decided to pick 11 since he had been wearing 10. Earlier in his career he had worn #69 so why not resuit up with that again? It's only been worn a few times in the league.

I'm going to go to my default and blame McDick.

I'm guessing you don't know what "69" means.

He picked 11 because he wants to be like Jeff Shantz.

Too many chefs, ...er centers, spoil the ...

With the additions of Vermette and Desjardins, we've gone from too few centers to too many centers.

I'd reckon that Desjardins has a better face-off percentage than Richards, as CL pointed out, plus rather see a faceoff win kicked out to Richards, as DM pointed out.


And, perhaps, they trust deyshardanz defensive responsibilities more than Richards

I'm sorry, but it's spelled Deysharshantz.

It's "A Good Day to Deysharshantz" starring Bruce Willis as the misunderstood Anglophile, trying to save Humankind, with the mispronounced sissy, pussy lame French last name.

Better not lose tonight. Blues and Preds are choking as usual. Need to take advantage.
