With a potential acronym nickname, it feels like destiny.

Monty will for sure play over Komzak but yeah we’ll want Strathmann back in at D with Monty as extra skater maybe alternating D reps with Jubenvil

Definitely. Perron’s speed is on another level this year. With James being our fastest skater, that line is a great fit since they can push pace so well. Once Perron can start utilizing his shot with his speed, that line will become even more lethal.

This was an interesting weekend because the line that was so good last weekend (James-Boisvert-Perron) produced the least this weekend. The 4th line was a force to be reckoned with, though.

Seems like at least one of our guys has a hot hand in the dot each night. Schmaltz didn’t have a great night but it didn’t matter much since Berg was solid. That’s an area Boisvert needs to pick it up but he’ll get there.

Too soon. Too soon. Please wait another 20-30 years before bringing it up again

Haha no joke. I know Omac was brutal at faceoffs but him at center with Berg’s shooting abilities they could really get things going

I was coming to say the same thing. Jammer in place of Kunz would be wise if that line doesn’t start rolling by the end of the first period.

Cornell better not lose more than 1 game the rest of the calendar year. Then I’ll give them 3 more after the new year through the regular season but they are only allowed to lose to good teams and not any of the weaklings they play on a regular basis haha. They’ve got Yale Friday and Brown Saturday and if they play their game there’s no reason they shouldn’t pull it off.

Based on how well we’ve been on breakaways I say we give Hobie a chance to shoot But really I think you’ve got a solid shootout lineup there with Wilkie being another good option

Prediction: We're coming away with at least 4/6 points this weekend to get some momentum back. Win and a tie followed by a shootout loss since we can't score on a breakaway no matter how much time is available. In the tie game we will dominate play and outshoot them by 7 or more shots but won't be able to get the winner in regulation. Even with the boys being very dinged up on the back end I feel confident going into this weekend.

This has nothing to do with the team’s product on the ice. But I’ve gotta say that our team has some real duds when it comes to being interviewed by the media (they are hockey players and not news anchors, so they are forgiven). But Monty was great at the media day interviews today. He can deliver his message, is comfortable at the podium, has a sense of humor, doesn’t stumble constantly or say the same thing over and over, and is honest. I think Jammer is a good interviewee as well but Monty getting more games in might mean better interview options for the media team

Yeah Berry’s comments a couple weeks ago about Zmolek needing ongoing testing was some dark foreshadowing that it’s either very long-term or season ending

I really thought Kunz stood out, too….

I’ll disagree with you here because Jammer is truly the heart and soul of this team. He’s the captain and is owning that role by going all in every night. He willed his way to that 2nd goal in a way no other skater on our team could have tonight.
