Line Combos heading into 06/07
Permalink Closed


Ryder-Koivu-Higgins
Samsonov-Ribs-Kovalev
Perezhogin-Bonk-Plekanec
Murray-Begin-Downey
Kostitsyn


Still weak down the middle, but not bad.

I am thinking like this


 


Samsonov-Riberio-Kovalev


Higgins-Koviu-Ryder


Murray-Plekanac-Johnson


Begin-Bonk-Downey


 


You forgot Mike Johnson, doesn't look like we will have all that much room for a rookie this year.

Do you guys both really see both Murray and Downey playing every night?  Isn't that a bit of overkill? I'd use Murray, who in my opinion is a scrapper without being too much of an offensive or defensive liability, and keep Downey in the stands as a backup.

Get rid of Murray and Downy - I can't beleive BG signed these guys.  Give the spot to some of our rookies.

I do agree, although I do like Murray a lot.  Downey is just eatiing up a spot for a young guy.

 Murray has proven that he can play and fight. Downey has done nothing. Yes, it's an over kill. I would give ice to Kostitsyn instead.

You guys forgot Perez! He will probably be on the Pleks wing which means Murray to the 4th line and one space for a rookie... probably one who won't develop past a 4th-liner - like a Ferland.

Somehow these combos don't convince me that we'll make it passed the first round in 07. I hope I'm completely wrong but I still feel we're missing another impact-offensive forward. Maybe we won't be satisfied no matter who we get.


To be honest, I was hoping Gainey would of made a made a multi player deal where it would make space for some hungry rookies. Look how important Pleks and Higs became in only their first year...

11 Rings, one too many guys on your roster.  Max roster size is 23.  That equates to two forward and one defence spares.


Also you would put Lats on the fourth line where he won't get a lot of minutes??  I think he needs to crack the top 3 lines to make this team at his age.  If not its back to junior to play a lot of minutes.

Is Dan Jancevski for sure going to Hamilton, or does he have a chance to get in the mix?
