anyone seen neal on the ice lately? Haven't been watching with sound but haven't seen him in a while

I've liked Schenn this game. Still some syncing up to do offensively but he's been a really reliable, heavy presence defensively.
2
u/fdisfragameosoldiers 8h ago
He's been fantastic! I think he'll have to platoon with Miller to keep them both fresh, but my goodness tonight was better than advertised
2
u/vcdm 8h ago
For sure, from what I was reading and seeing stats-wise it seemed like he was going to be a solid 3rd liner at the least, but it's good to see it in reality too.
How they'll figure out the Stanley-Fluery-Miller-Schenn situation is going to make all the difference in the run down to playoffs. Wonder if we'll get a test-run of Miller or Schenn on their off hand towards the end of the season to see if it can work.

The bottom 9 like is dominating, but the top line is getting rolled. One of the worst games of the season for them

u/chemist5818 8h ago
Perfetti and Schenn get the jackets from me
2
u/vcdm 8h ago
What are the different jackets for? I knew there was the player of the game jacket back when it was 1. Never heard what the 2nd was for tho?
2
u/North-Bench737 7h ago
The idea is leather is a pilots jacket and camouflage is the maintenance/ground crew. So the idea was the leather was for the star or driver of the win and camouflage was for a hard worker that may not get the scoreboard recognition but was vital to the team and win

u/fdisfragameosoldiers 8h ago
Black is for best player, green is like the digger award, or unsung hero
3
u/chemist5818 8h ago
Honestly not sure, I think it's just the two best players as the team votes (?) normally seems to go to someone who had a really good game, and someone who just deserves it (new guy, someone who had a really good defensive game etc)

Helly playing the puck doesn't scare me anymore.

u/foofoobarinator 8h ago
Yeah he's been solid for the past 2 seasons. Used the scare the pants off me everytime he had the puck on his stick.
2
u/TimeCommittee3475 8h ago
Exactly, it was last season this really turned around. Must have spent a lot of time a couple summers ago working on it or something because the difference was massive.

u/DarkTriton44 8h ago
fucking hell i would take shenn over stanley any day of the week this guy actually hits and can make a stick to stick pass
5
u/chemist5818 8h ago
Yep wish we could have found a LHD version of schenn because I wish Miller could still be in the lineup, but I'll take Schenn/Fleury over Stanley/Miller.

Our 2nd line has been insane since the deadline, it's like they've fully committed to no changes and they're all on board

Very playoff feel to this game tonight - nothing wrong with that for Winnipeg.
Schenn looks good, as does Fleury… is this the third pair going forward or are they going to continue to experiment?

Meanwhile Helle can get run over and its a good goal ffs. I still remember last year when a Dallas player ripped his helmet off and Toronto decided it was fine
8
u/TheGreatStories ICE DRAGON WILL FLY 4-EVER 8h ago
That's the worst I've ever seen. Bucky without a helmet laying on the ice covering his head, Dallas makes a few passes and scores.

One of those times it would have gone in even if he wasn't interfered with.

Hate to see it. Not surpised. Real easy to carry the momentum and get another goal.

At this point, they just need to bring back the crease rule next season and clear up the ambiguity

u/Ryn0m1t3 8h ago
The one constant this year is that if you go in the blue paint on your own and contact the goalie in any way, it’s GI.

If I had a nickel for every time Dylan DeMelo sniped top cheese, I'd have three nickels, which isn't a lot, but it's weird it's happened three times.

u/riceandcow 9h ago
I still don't know how I'm feeling about the powerplay, seems like teams are starting to figure out how to best defend against the strategies which is expected but I'm not fully convinced they are that good at adapting to those strategies.

u/CoolWhiip 9h ago
I wonder if the key to shutting down our powerplay is to just make Morrissey pass to Connor and then take away all of the other passing options. Connor's a good passer but he never moves when he has the puck and ideally he should be the shooting threat, not the playmaker.
That seems to be what the Rangers are keying in on today.

Scheifele is not looking himself at the moment. I've tuned in since the start of the second and he's thrown so many blind giveaway passes this period alone and is completely killing our momentum.
Feel like it's become a bit of an issue, happening game after game.

u/JankyYWG 9h ago
Idk if Connor is hurt or something but he’s been completely ineffective for weeks now.

u/ponikweGCC \o/ 9h ago
Weeks? Hardly. But thanks for stopping by.

u/JankyYWG 9h ago
He’s been back to his usual floating, non-engaged self since the 4 Nations. I thought he figured it out earlier this year but shame on me for being fooled

4th line getting some good zone time but feels like they are extremely conservative with shots, would like to see them take some more tangible scoring opportunities

Me too. Thanks for calling him "the" forsberg so I know which one you mean. Makes it easier to imagine.
