hes been a real double edge sword so far with it i feel.

on the whole i dont know if it is a net positive.

Johnny needs to go back to shooting. Looking for the pass too much again.

[Bawbag]

The fact that GG hasn't changed the D pairings up just shows how out of his depth he really is

Probably. I tried to come up with another explanation the lame late start excuse is all I could think of.

I wonder if the break out could be could be adjusted for a 3rd option once the forchekers get in deep to pressure the d in the corners.

We're getting decent chances.

could easily be 2-0 based on the kulak and monahan chances.

You are conveniently overlooking the fact they had a breakaway.

Could easily be 2-1

Yeah, like in that case there were 3 forecheckers covering the 2 D basically all below the goal line. As a defenseman, I like to have the high boards or middle ice option...but I suppose that's exceptionally more risky when you're the goalie passing from behind the net.

And Voracek left wide open right in front but the puck bounced over his stick

[vanisleflamesfan]

So is this passive 0-0-5 forecheck part of GG's fabled "system"?

Be sure to let them set up boys... that way they always enter our zone at full speed.

Don't worry, they'll be here to say "I told you so" at the first chance they get.

I fear Im on the fire GG train... so Ill doubt that they will say that to me

[zamler]

Mike Smith is our best defenseman.
