At least Dubinksy won't be present.

Guess tonight's pairings game....

Dumo-Letang
Maatta-Big Rig
Hunwick-Ruhwedal

Maatta and Olek seem too slow to be together. Maybe rude beetle with Maatta.

Oleksiak covers a decent amount of ground with his stride...

8-58

I won the defensive pairing game. Ian Cole lost. They just were looking for a way to get him out of the lineup. I hope Oleksiak winds up for a slapshot that deflects out of play, breaks the press box glass and hits Brandon Dubinsky right in the yap...I'd retire his number right then and there...hang it right next to Mario's and see if we ever get a Chick-Fil-A inside the Paint Can after that...

All RHS fourth line tonight...makes cycling a little difficult...

I guess Hornqvist is fine...well, fine as far as Hornqvist goes...he's been day-to-day for his entire career...

I'm thinking a third line center pushes Reaves out of the lineup...I bet the Pens are looking for a RHS, push Sheahan down to 4C, push Rowney over to RW where they feel more comfortable about his defensive game - which has not matched last year's in the early going for him yet - and push Reaves out at 4RW.

We're a ways from that though...

Reaves is such a waste of a spot

Postby **crusherstasiak** » Thu Dec 21, 2017 7:28 pm

bet potash baked him a cake

Oleksiak surprisingly smooth.

He sure doesn't look bad

Oleksiak surprisingly smooth.

He is a good athlete. See him there on the give and go, and then crash the net...it is the mental game that has been highly questionable...not very smart, not very intense...

Fourth line looking great tonight.

Postby **willeyeam** » Thu Dec 21, 2017 7:45 pm

Reaves has come so close a few times the past couple of games. Poor guy

GMJR talked up his hockey sense after the trade; see the Big Rig thread thread for link.
