The Fucking Season Thread - Redemption Tour '22

I don't think Elliott knows anything until the trade is pretty much done (like with new Ozzy; silence on the Leafs being interested in him until an hour before the trade was announced). With that said they're obviously not getting Schenn unless they trade Holl, Liljegren or even Dermott. I mean they're not going 9 deep in the playoffs.
 
nothing quite like watching a big mean oaf look like they are in molasses while they get beat clean on the outside with speed

It's not really a small sample for the 4 lines at this point... and therefore no escaping that this 3rd line has been terrible, and the 2nd line mediocre.

When you see the numbers for a 3rd line with Engvall on it there, in a decent sample too, the solution kind of looks obvious.

But it seems Keefe is very hesitant to demote either of Kase or Kerfoot to the 4th line. But really for me those two should be battling for the 2nd line slot with the other to the 4th line.

Of course the other solution is to add another legit top 6 forward which could make milky-kampf-engvall more of the 4th line with newguy/kerfoot/kase/Spezza either getting the spot on that 2nd line or making up the 3rd scoring line.

Top pair has been ok...but slipping lately. A shakeup there is not out of the question.

Funny how similar the muzz-holl and muzz-brodie pairings are - both very good underlying and awfuk regular numbers. Muzz-Lilly worse by impact but better by goals.

Bottom pair has been great no matter what.


The actual solution here might be for Keefe to just stop using a top matchup pairing so much, and stop sheltering the bottom pair so much, and use our great depth on D to our advantage.
