The good: koivu(nice goal, always a threat), Markov(solid again), Bouillion( solid again), Begin (love this guy). I also liked plekanac tonight--what about him as our second line center?
The bad: Theodore(looking very average to me), Souray( Sometimes just stands around), Kovelev( other than that great move to set up Koivu, he played uninspired), Ryder(not that bad a game but...I've seen him better)
The ugly: Ribero( sorry but this guy is not cutting it as our second line center, he looked like a boy playing with men tonight. God awful). WE NEED A REAL SECOND LINE CENTER!!! And that game exposed our need for another true blueliner( that way Streit is not our 6th dman).
I've seen Kovy play a lot here in NY, and I like him, but he's like your dream date who wants to go out with you, but doesn't feel like going out all that often, then 10 dates in a row, etc, etc It's just his cycle of things. But he's so good when he's good, it trancends all the crap in between
Ribs will look like a kid when he''s 40. wouldn't mind seeing what could be had for him
