replaced sure, but not this late in the season…you send armstrong and christensen, who are solid 2nd-3rd line forwards for a 1st line winger. christensen was doing well centering the 3rd line behind malkin but has moved up the depth with sid out…now they will have a problem losing two power forwards i think. dupuis helps, but the real debate is if hossa can show up THAT MUCH MORE on the top line to offset the other losses
hossa playing with malkin for now and with sid the kid later is a scary fucking thought for the east…
werd thats all he was ever good for. armstrong on the other hand is a huge loss imo, he played awesome with roberts last year in the playoffs. that line got probably 75% of the points against ottawa in that series.
hossa/malkin/sykora. crosby and roberts when they return…thats pretty siqqqqq tho, so hopefully its for the better.
keep malone/malkin/sykora together, theyre holding it down and malkin seems to do better without crosby. the crosby stall hossa line.
so much for brian burke sucking himself off saying “we’re set with the team we have”
is pronger going to be out for a bit? he took a nasty shot last night…
bergeron is a good pickup for anyones blue line…why the FUCK couldn’t buffalo make a run for him with ONE of their upcoming two first round picks as bait
