will have to watch the nhl news tonight, the past two days has been nothing but Sindy news.
I’ve also noticed none of our announcers have said the word Norris in a while

Sometimes a timely save can spark the team. Sammy made (2) 10 bellr's to start the 3rd and they were off.. Holtby can't stop a beach ball at the moment. Team probably gets deflated.

There is absolutely something to that. You have to have confidence in your netminder.

So regarding WHO should be on the ice with a one goal lead....
For me...defensively responsibly speaking....
Ziggy and Gudas on D for sure (+24, +10)
And either Eller line (+5, +9, +6)
or Dowds line (+11, +7, +7)
Ovi is a -13. He has 47P, minus 19PPP means he has -13 with 28P at ES...meaning he is on the ice for 41GA
Subtract a player's P at ES from his +/- and shows how many NET GA he is on for by the other team
Net GA for each player/line: SO the higher the number, the worse your net GA is....
Ovi 41
Backy 28
Willy 22
Eller 18
Hags 4
Panik 1
Dowd -1
Leipsic 3
Hathy 5
Kempny 7
Carlson 25
Orlov 9
Jensen 7
Gudas -10
Ziggy -1
Now I realize this is just a basic measure and does not reflect what lines the guys are playing against, but it does show some measure of relative positive and negative impact on opponent's ability (or at least statistical history) to score.
Like I said....Gudas and Ziggy for sure (who both have played far above my expectations this year)
and probably the Dowd line.
Whatever, I'll take the win and be happy
Now I guess I have to go home and actually watch the game.

Sorry....should have put this in the boredom thread :pointdown:

I do. When these guys are playing full steam they are seemingly unstoppable. If we stay healthy and somewhat rested we have a shot at another cup. As crappy as we've seen them play they are still dominating the standings.
