Spezza is the only thing that stood in the way of this being Elliott, Elliott and Elliott again. He had to make rididulous 3rd period saves, again. Against a Dung team I might add.

1 - Spezza
2 - Elliott
3 - Regin

Joking aside I actually agree with your stars SSF and as luck would have it those were the same ones as picked in the building.

1. Spezza
2. Elliott
3. Gonchar

I didn't catch that. I was at the Canadian Tire in Morrisburg at the time!

You're biased

Seriously, though, when are Foligno and Regin going to wake up? Sure, Regin got two assists, but against a tired team (some of them didn't get in til 3AM, I heard) we could have used a little more from everyone. It's a shame that, in a game like this, Elliott *has to be* one of the stars. This should have been a game Emery's Jersey could win.

Or perhaps the infamous neck tie?

Clouston put Foligno and Regin out on the PP together maybe hoping one could pot one. I was surprised that even up 3-1 with an empty net that CC didn't put one or both of them out there to try for an empty netter.

Spezza
Elliott
Regin

HM - Gonchar

Come on Prager, there's more to it than just scoring, Regin has been really solid. He's truly emerging as the mix of two-way player and offensive threat. The goals will come for him, but for now he's making things happen in the offensive zone.

Foligno I'm disappointed in, but Regin needs to continue to play the way he's playing IMO, the goals will come.

Yeah, I'd really like to know what Foligno's issue is this year. Where's all the skill and razzle dazzle he showed in the preseason? This kid is dumbfounding and if he doesn't get it together soon, he might find himself getting benched.

Not sure, but soon he'll find himself firmly planted on the 4th line - where offense seems to go to die (no offense Winchester, Smith!).

Call me crazy, but that is a pretty solid 4th line. When or if everybody is healthy that gives us:
Regin - Spezza - Kovalev
Michalek - Fisher - Alfie
Ruutu - Kelly - Neil
Foligno - Winch - Smith/Shannon

Are you talking about last night's game, or the first dozen games of the season? If you say Regin has not disappointed you this season so far then you'd better be careful when you next sip your coffee -- your nose might get in the way.

He's not a top-six winger yet.
