Don't know about you people but I thought Theo sucked tonight and didn't factor in the win at all. Danis could of managed better. Theo faught the puck all night. Why does he bother standing at all? He may as well stay on his knees all night and yell out "shoot high please, I can only cover the bottom 3 feet of net" Would love to see him get his confidence and timing back for more than one game. Historically in his prior seasons he has put together at least five good game before he tanks again with soft goals. I personally think because he had a few strong playoff games against Boston that it has totally overrated him. I would trade him for Marc-Andre Fluery in a heart beat!

You had me with you until that last sentence, AB. I think Fleury is also overrated, and has been a big disappointment. But you're right about Theo - all the goals are up high. This should be an obvious correction for Rollie to work on with him.

Ab- have you been into the wine? Theo staright up for Fleury? Maybe at teh same time we can trade Kovalev for Tie Domi?

AB, I don't know about overrated, but he looked way out of position on all of the goals. 5 on 3 or 5 on 5, why is he sitting on one knee openning up the top of the short side when the opposing player with the puck is at the side of the net? He seems to be worried that his defense won't or can't take away the pass.

But, I also wonder if after a solid performance against the Rangers, if Theo didn't get cold standing around for something like 8 or 9 minutes before FLA registered their first shot.

Speaking of getting cold, it looks as though Perezhogin is a little discombobulated out there with low minutes since being taken off the first line. He only had a little over 4 minutes last night.

Edit: Theo for Fleury? There must be some good booze in Alberta
