Losing

[Bolt Fore]

Losing four out of five the Bolts are not getting many points and the other teams are sneaking up on them in the standings. I could see if this isn't stopped we could miss the playoffs.

Yep we need bishop and stamkos healthy! Or we are done simple as that!

Vladislav Namestnikov is playing his first NHL game tonight. I've been waiting for this for a long time . Hope he does well.

he still is small a very raw but I think he will be a good nhl player nice win tonight. But I like brown, Vladdy and kucherov playing on a line good to see!

 

[dannyb24195]

Yeah a very gutty win. I thought we looked tired, I thought our energy was lacklustre but I'll take the two points any way we can get them.

Main thing is Bishop it seems. As great as Stamkos is, they have found ways to win without him. Without Bishop the cause appears next to hopeless.

Ya bishop is the glue holding it all together!

Yeah they literally fall apart when he's not in net.

The team has faith in bishop they know he can make the saves. They just don't have it in lindback and others! They are more calm when Ben is in net! They take more chances to score! That young line with brown vladdy and kucherov really looked good! Watch out for them.

It's a good line. I like them too.

Ya as for canada I have always wanted to see Crosby and St. Louis play together! now I may get to see that on a line.

That would be some crazy playmaking there, even I could probably score 15-20 goals in the NHL playing with those 2 on my line.

ya I would bet they put Chris Kunitz , Crosby and St.Louis together thats a crazy good line!

One thing about the Canadian roster I noticed, they have a ton of playmakers, not enough snipers.

ya thats why they wanted stamkos on the wing for canada for crosby to feed him the puck. However I still see canada taking the gold medal.

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

It's the most talented team no doubt but I have doubts to as whether or not they have the right pieces. Too many playmakers could result in over passing the puck, and no one who wants to take the shot.

Here's my guess at Canada's lines:

Tavares-Crosby-Kunitz
Duchene-Toews-Sharp
Benn-Getzlaf-Perry
Marleau-Bergeron-Nash

I don't think Marty will feature in Canada's A+ lineup, I think he will get games against the lesser teams but with being a replacement I don't think he'll feature in Canada's lineup the deeper they go.

Haha I was completely wrong Canada opens with Kunitz-Crosby-Carter line | ProHockeyTalk
