Yup, I think I agree.

Jarnkrok hasn't taken a bunch of dumb penalties, and he's done great work on the PK.

Is he contributing offensively as much as we'd hope? Hell no. But he's not a liability.

*and in a fast-paced series like this, the guy Jarnkrok is replacing... this year, Monahan would have been an actual liability in this series.

I'm gonna defend Toffoli a little bit, dudes played more hockey than anyone on the ice save maybe Coleman. They both look like they could use some downtime. Colemans bread and butter is easier to carry on though.

I also think Toffoli isn't a real good fit on his line.


Actually that whole line isn't a real good fit for each other. None are real playmakers.

So you tell me that I shouldn't lock the bugger in there. Go ahead, tell me.
maybe hit him too

I agree. Jarnkrok has battled pretty hard.

Toffoli is just so slow. If he's faster, it would be a huge difference.

Well we're just a couple goals away from the wall of shame. My chance to be famous.

I shut off the game at the end of the first and at this point I'm committed to not turning it back on.

I'm refuting it. An off-season to recover and do nothing but get a beer belly cures all injuries. His decision making has been mediocre at best.
