Am I the only one that feels Hoffman would be better off on another line? I get that we are trying to spread out the offence but it hasn't worked that well it seems recently. We're missing on enough good players to make that work

I'm gonna go with 11 - 0 Sens. They owe us for that Alfie Night debacle.

 I actually like that Boucher has kept the lines fairly consistent. Cameron and PMac used to shuffle them almost every game. Boucher is trying to ensure that the top 3 lines are each capable of producing offense.

I always thought that was funny. When Cameron got hired he got interviewed and I listened to him say that the fans shouldn't expect to see line shuffling. He said that a lot of thought and work goes into setting the lines, so they'd stay fairly consistent. Then he started coaching...

Hoff is with turris, right?  If so, that's probably good

No. The lines were posted on page 1.

No, you're not the only one. Hoffman probably thinks the same. He lost his spot when he was suspended.

Pageau looked as surprised as Hutton.

Blues look tired. Gotta take advantage of that.

Please never put Dzingel on the power play again.

Bobby must be feeling good with another goal. It's time to heat up Ryan!

Pretty good game. Offence is clicking and defensively decent game. A few plays and goals you'd like back but all and all they limited the shot count.
The blues aren't what they used to be but it's a descent measuring stick.

Hutton was struggling as were most of the Blues. Sluggish. Classic first game back after a road trip.

Back in a playoff spot. 50 points catches the Flyers and the games in hand gives us the wildcard spot. One point back of Boston, now. Five in hand.

I thought we were very slow to get to some pucks too.  Like we were skating in mud,  maybe the ice was bad.

He's really come down to earth. Still a decent player but 3rd line material.

Nice win. Let's pick up a few more!

Probably par for the course for a player only one and a half seasons into his career and not 'elite' level. You're probably right in the long run, he'll be a nice LW on line 3, but he'll have some great streaks coming up as he continues to adjust.
