True. Then again, when Stone was with Da Costa they created literally a scoring chance the few shifts they were together including the eventual Wiercioch goal and the post to come before it.
I was not impressed by this guy in the early stages of the season but he's starting to show some good instincts and touch around the net. He's definitely a good fit for that line and plays the big bodied net crasher role well.

I wonder if Richardson takes Schnieder out and puts Zibanejad in his place when Zibanejad is healthy. Zibby will take someone out of the lineup when he is helthy, so I guess it would be one of Schnieder or Cowick.
Da Costa's game overshadowed another brilliant game by Silfverberg.
Rightfully so. Da Costa gave us the win tonight. Silf had a really nice goal (which was the game winner) and had some good opportunities but just didn't cash in.
Prince kind of flew under the radar with 3 assist's tonight.
Silf is sneaky good. Even when he doesn't have the puck he just knows where to go
He also sets his teammates up so well and uses his positioning with the puck as an indication of where to draw his linemates as well as his opponents. He usually goes into a gliding position and watches everything set into place like a puzzle the way he wants it to.
Someone who has that uncanny ability is Alfredsson.

Zibanejad with Da Costa and Prince would be something special. Then again Petersson was out so I'd assume they keep that line together and put Zibanejad-Petersson together with someone else. Richardson always has them together for some reason.

I would take Petersson out fast. That guy isn't doing anything, he has no excuse. 2nd year pro and all with a bunch of Swedes in the lineup, and the other small guys are contributing, Prince with 3 assists tonight and even though Pageau isn't putting up big numbers, at least hes on the PK.
Sucks too since Petersson has been one of my favorite prospects since we drafted him.
The third line of Dziurzynski-Grant-Stone had another good game. That line creates a lot of good offensive chances out there and based on the chances they have created this season, each player on that line could easily have double their point totals.
Prince and Da Costa showed some great chemistry together and Schneider had a good game as well.
Wouldn't mind seeing Silfverberg and Da Costa on the same line. Silverberg makes the smart plays and is always in the right spot, and Da Costa has uncanny vision to go along with great elusiveness. Could be similar to Silfverberg's old centre Jarnkrok.

Was Petersson injured or healthy scratch? He hasn't had much of an impact this season and the team seems to be able to play fine without him.
If Richardson puts Zibanejad with Da Costa and Prince, then we will have 3 good scoring lines and a 4th line that can chip in as well.
