Kelly the Dog Posted June 1, 2006 Posted June 1, 2006 It's almost impossible to really question Ruff too much as he has been brilliant this year at pulling strings. In the last couple games, when we were down a few defensement, I wasnt all that enamored with putting both Janik and Jillson together, however, and it bit us a couple times. I do understand the theory of keeping the best pair together and logging the mot ice time. It will be interesting today to see who he groups, with only Lydman and Soup as regulars, and Soup being scary enough as a defensive defenseman.
Catholic Guilt Posted June 1, 2006 Posted June 1, 2006 Where's Jay McKee? What happened? 701417[/snapback] The Hockey Sherpa has willed that we play with no defenseman tonight. He still likes our chances.

I think he'll be fine. But, I really want Lindy to come out gunning. Let the boys on the blue line jump into the play...encourage Paetch and Soupy to pinch....we are gonna need to put the puck in the net if we are gonna win this game, I don't see it being the defensive struggle that the last game was.
smokinandjokin Posted June 1, 2006 Posted June 1, 2006 I have never played ice hockey, but I have been to Rochester a few times. Does this mean I can suit up tonight? You da man Paestch!!! Seize this opportunity!

Kelly the Dog Posted June 1, 2006 Posted June 1, 2006 I thought Ted was saying 'you can't be serious' in a "these injuries are ridiculous" sort of way. 701436[/snapback] Oh, he was. My comment was really just about Nathan Paetsch playing and who Ruff may pair him with.
Crap Throwing Monkey Posted June 1, 2006 Posted June 1, 2006 Oh, he was. My comment was really just about Nathan Paetsch playing and who Ruff may pair him with. 701437[/snapback] Who's left? I think Paetsch is going to be paired off with a pair of old socks...
Dan Gross Posted June 1, 2006 Posted June 1, 2006 Who's left? I think Paetsch is going to be paired off with a pair of old socks... 701450[/snapback] Told ya Regier should have picked up 5 more 1st line defensemen before the trade deadline...
Lurker Posted June 1, 2006 Posted June 1, 2006 Told ya Regier should have picked up 5 more 1st line defensemen before the trade deadline... 701452[/snapback] (that kind of day, so far...)
Crap Throwing Monkey Posted June 1, 2006 Posted June 1, 2006 Told ya Regier should have picked up 5 more 1st line defensemen before the trade deadline... 701452[/snapback] I've been thinking of that stupid "argument" all day, too...
X. Benedict Posted June 1, 2006 Posted June 1, 2006 Told ya Regier should have picked up 5 more 1st line defensemen before the trade deadline... 701452[/snapback] Darcy is a bum. Any good GM can tell you that you lose 4 out of 6 of your starting defensemen in a Stanley Cup run.
Kelly the Dog Posted June 1, 2006 Posted June 1, 2006 I say put a goalie mask on McKee and just have him lay there in front of the net on one side blocking shots. 'Tis but a scratch! The Black Knight always triumphs!

HurlyBurly51 Posted June 1, 2006 Posted June 1, 2006 Told ya Regier should have picked up 5 more 1st line defensemen before the trade deadline... 701452[/snapback] Will be interesting to see if some of these same folks so willing to give Darcy carte blanche will be willing to do the same for Marv. Of course, some won't be able to correlate losing 4 Dmen and how that might translate to the NFL.
