...anyone else a bit curious whos going to score our goals tonight?
guess thats what pre season is for..
anyone have an internet feed for this game?
wow this is an entire team of third line or worse players
why no stepan? i feel like he is still on a tryout and would like to see what he could do without gaborik and frolov. and if nothing else, it gives him more experience and exposure
There are alot of games left, obviously Torts wants to get a feel for which players are worth keeping for the bottom half of the roster.
Charlie - Good question. Maybe its a sign that the coaching staff feels he's already earned a spot on the team and they want to take a longer look at White and Kennedy. Maybe...
These are preseason games and the coaches need to evaluate all the players under game conditions. They aren't all that concerned about the outcome or trying to put together a lineup to score. They need to figure out who to keep and who to cut.

Sorry for the double post. It said the 1st one didn't go through.
Anybody else notice how much Chico Resh and Joe Micheletti are fighting (mostly about Avery and Boogard)? They are making Doc Emrick uncomfortable... I guess it is preseason for the announcers too.
Evan, Yes! Joe M. was owning.
stepan sat last night because they are splitting team up with 2 games in less than 24 hrs
This is really helpful post and very informative there is no doubt about it. I found this one pretty fascinating and it should go into my Collection. Very good work!
