wow. what an awesome game to watch.
1. jagr. damn. thats really all i need to say.
2. read - i think we can start penciling him into our line combos (see below).. he's fast, he's got a good shot, and his smarts took left (center was occupied by jagr) stage tonight.. pking he winds around the offensive zone and looks for room, sends it all the way back to the d-zone to kill off another 15-20 seconds.. and on the PP he drifts in to the net when the battle is in the corner, unbelievably smart play for a rookie, and he gets rewarded with a great pass, and puts a wicked shot up top.. i'm VERY impressed
3. simmonds - he's probably about 2 periods away from topping my jersey power rankings.. another great game, being physical, being dangerous, and the way he handled avery tonight was very impressive to me.. never got to say anything about the incident, but he handled that with pure class.. i'm very impressed with simmonds
4. coburn - monster tonight.. physically and with the shot.. very good to see
5. voracek/giroux/jagr - i see no reason for this not to be the top line.. if they learn to shoot a little more, wow.. cause they play keep away forever
6. harry z - unfortunate that he has to be this low, cause i thought he played fantastic.. and damn is he fast.. i think him and read add another element to this team that wasn't there in the preseason games they didnt play
7. walker - anybody else notice him being a pillar of strength tonight? i'm just as surprised as the next guy, but walker looked real good defensively tonight.. i wonder if there is a way to fit him under that cap because..
the negatives
lilja is not good, neither is gustaffson (unfortunately), and bart has looked shakey too.. hence me wanting to play walker
bryz could have been better, but i wont get on him yet, its preseason, and there were a couple tonight that he had no chance on anyway (see lilja and gustafsson)
sestito = shelley part 2, so no thank you.. make an example of him too shanny, thanks
Awaz's lineup after 5 games:
voracek.giroux.jagr
jvr*.briere.simmonds
read.schenn.hartnell
harry z.betts.talbot
nodl
coburn.mesz (see below)
pronger.timmo (just for fun i have them flipped, cause thats what i want haha)
walker.**carle
bart
bryz
bob
*in case anyone was wondering about how amped i am about our forwards, i forgot jvr initially
**pains me to put carle down here with how well he played the other night, but this just makes me realize how much i like our defense again
not sure if that lineup fits under the cap, but i hope it does.. i know walker is 1.7 mil which is really unfortunate.. if he plays like he did tonight, he's well worth it, but i dont think he was in the flyers plans when they were calculating the cap
they're setting me up to be crushed, but i LOVE this team right now
