Exactly. Minny has no finish whatsoever.

Actually, they have some finnish. Miko Koivu... but he's out injured. And next year, Mikael Granlund.

maybe hes trying to limit exposure and save him for the PO's so teamms cant scout him to much ???

But, I don't see Giroux.

He's out there. Last check, he leads both teams in time played.

[cheesesteak]

Simmer just gave Powe a mean stare down.

[Kaktus*]

Woudl be nice to get Briere a winger that can finish. Talbot can not get it done. Voracek is a passer. They need a finisher on that line.

You should get banned for that lame attempt at humour

[SolidSnakeUS]

Great ****ing period, other than the AWFUL goal by Bryz.

His minutes are fine. He's a rookie, keeping his minutes down is best for him down the road.

[NewYorkFlyerFan]

Good period.

I didn't see him during the PP at all.

I'd be afraid if I was Powe.

I agree. I don't want to see Sean burned out come April.

It annoys me too b/c I think he could be doing so much more.

But at the same time, if this means that Lavvy is saving him and plans to use him 15 mins/game in the playoffs, I'd be OK with that.

I won't be happy though if Couturier is still getting like 10 mins per game during the playoffs.

He and Schenn have both passed Briere in every way / shape / form. They deserve the ice time.

That makes sense, sitting our most playoff proven center for two rookies.

[SolidSnakeUS]

Maybe the Flyers have been trying to do a lot of deflections mainly because it's been such a pain in the ass against us, so why not use it as well?

It does when he's playing like trash.

Harts said something along that in his interview with Coatsey.

and they def. do seem to be trying alot of greasy shots on net. its nice to see..

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Highlights on WIP Radio...Saunders' PxP call of the Minnesota goal: "a brutal goal."

[mirimon]

Another solid period. Bryzgalov should have had that goal, but he's been good otherwise. He's made a few nice plays with the puck so far.

Gustafsson continues to play better than last game, standing up on the blue line a couple of times.

Couturier and Read are awesome. Jagr and Giroux has stepped up their play as well.

[hckyplayer8]

We need to go out and dominate them physically. Hit anything that touches the puck that isn't wearing orange.
