Protec Verified Member Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago I think MN needs to keep playing a team game and they'll get the goals and goaltending they need. They've finally captured some momentum. Gus has been pretty good. I think the depth guys will find a way to chip in. Hartman, Trenin, and Foligno have all been doing good things. Hill is not unbeatable. I expect to see some extra from the depth lines. Hynes is a little more dynamic than Evason but it's the belief MN needs to harness. That is the key to MN getting Vegas against the ropes and avoiding letdowns. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Verified Member Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago I absolutely agree with moving Rossi up and Nyquist out. He doesn't have it anymore. Put Ohhren on the 4th line and let them hit everything that moves for 8 or 9 minutes. I do think you are underselling on the Wilds blue line though. While the Knights are controlling expected goals that isn't the whole story. In fact the Wild defense is a case study on the shortcomings of advanced hockey stats. Vegas has had control of the puck but the Wild and specifically the defense are dictating what is happening on the ice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
