You're tripping

Subban is just that horrible. Can't wait for playoffs!
Knights in 6

Laughable.

IMO Sharks will need to roll heavy in a series against VGK. Less cycling/low-high/pinching and more going straight to the net.
Radil should get more play. Gambrell can skate with Vegas, but he probably won't get as much time because DeBoer doesn't trust him.

It's good to see Gambrell get some more run. Not sure if Middleton is eligible.
IMO Ryan, Braun, Donskoi, Sorensen look broken. Burns and Thornton could use some rest.

What a horrendous end to the regular season. Sharks officially worse than every other team in the league over the last ten games. Prepared for them to get blown out in the playoffs. They aren't playing like they deserve to be there.

Crazy how bad they have been. Hopefully they can "flip the switch"

I can understand if DeBoer was trying to give players a rest.
However, he didn't seem to be making any adjustments during the losing streak.
And with only < 5 games left, he starts playing Gambrell and Middleton and is trying to build confidence in Donskoi and Ryan.

Most likely it'll be a boom-or-bust type Harbaugh run that will rest on the shoulders of EK65. DeBoer will roll out the muscle and EK65 needs to make the plays.

Radil, Pavs and EK65 all back healthy should make everyone better.

The question is going to be who's going to be in net? Will Deboer have the gumption to go with the hot hand at goalie?

Losing Simek really hurts.

I think Jones is the only choice in net. Dell is athletic, but has average skills/instincts/size. IMO nothing more than a temporary fill in.
Jones is like the catcher who has no ability except that he can call a good game and is big enough to block balls. They just have to hope that over a series, he can quickly learn to anticipate when and where the shots are coming from.

Maybe SJ vs. VGK will be such a goonfest that EK65 will never sign with them.

Vegas was rumored to be a strong contender for his services before they traded for Stone.

I hope he turns it around during the playoffs; he generally has performed well the last couple years. He even stole a game from the penguins two years ago. Just don't know what it is this year

What a dream come true if the Knights are able to sign EK65... I don't think we have the money after the Stone signing but can you imagine.... the Knights would be unstoppable!
