Zubie#8 Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 That second line should be fun to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Wensink Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Love the lines, a good balance of size, speed and scoring on each line. 4th line may actually not suck too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devs4LordStanley Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 We WILL beat the Pens tomorrow. That's the spirit! Glad we can replace Elias w/ Zajac in the shootout... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevsMan84 Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Interesting and I guess we will see how this works tomorrow. I am not too high on that third line though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 That's the spirit! Glad we can replace Elias w/ Zajac in the shootout... Elias is 19-for-48 in the shootout (39.6%) lifetime and 5-for-11 (45.5%) this season. Zajac is 4-for-13 lifetime for 30.8% But let me guess...since Elias didn't get it done last night, he needs to replaced in the shootout. What a joke of a post. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggie B Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 My oh my, the 4th line looks respectable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilsfan118 Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 So, even when separated, Kovy's staying on the RW huh? I guess that makes sense. He's probably used to it by now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScoreMoreThan3 Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 I doubt Zajac plays more than 10-15 minutes tomorrow. At least u would hope he doesn't because it wouldn't be smart to push him hard in his first game back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zubie#8 Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 (edited) I doubt Zajac plays more than 10-15 minutes tomorrow. At least u would hope he doesn't because it wouldn't be smart to push him hard in his first game back. They will probably give Henrique or Josefson a couple of shifts between Kovalchuk and Ponikarovsky to lighten Zajac's ice time.

lazer Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 (edited) switch carter and sykora and two top lines like this. zach/zajac/kovy poni/patty/zubrus carter/adam/clarkson sykora/jj/bernie or switch zajac with jj edit:oh my so many options Edited March 25, 2012 by lazer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarpathianForest Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Yes, that's right. Put a guy who hasn't played in 37 games on the first line and give him 20+ minutes of ice time. While youre at it double shift him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScoreMoreThan3 Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 I like.. zach/zajac/adam poni/patty/kovy zubrus/jj/clarkson sykora/carter/bernie Adam is a C though. I don't want Zajac on the 1st line right away. That's asking for fatigue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayday Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 thank jesus christ the KHP line was broken up. time to try something new. good to see zajac back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zubie#8 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 New lines this morning. Henrique Zajac Kovalchuk Ponikarovsky Josefson Clarkson Sykora Carter Bernier I like! I really expect that Zajac line to be extremely dangerous with Henrique on the wing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anhkheg Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 New lines this morning. Henrique Zajac Kovalchuk Ponikarovsky Josefson Clarkson Sykora Carter Bernier I like! I really expect that Zajac line to be extremely dangerous with Henrique on the wing. I like this move a lot. I think one change can really help here, switching Poni and Sykora. Sykora is too slow against other teams' top lines and our fourth line needs some help as teams have pegged it as our weakness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onddeck Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Elias is 19-for-48 in the shootout (39.6%) lifetime and 5-for-11 (45.5%) this season. Zajac is 4-for-13 lifetime for 30.8% But let me guess...since Elias didn't get it done last night, he needs to replaced in the shootout. What a joke of a post. Fwiw Elias is honestly not that good at the SO. Ive been wishing we would substitute Henrique for Elias for a long time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Fwiw Elias is honestly not that good at the SO. Ive been wishing we would substitute Henrique for Elias for a long time Based on what? The numbers tell a different story. So Elias' 5-for-11 isn't good enough for you this season? The only thing bad about Kovy being ridiculously automatic this season is that some think that if other shooters aren't producing at somewhere near that rate, it's not enough. The fact that Kovy's now at 40.0% AFTER this season's burst should tell you how off-the-charts he's been this season. Elias is just fine in shootouts. 39.6% lifetime is very good.
