there is no excuse for Hossa, he was giiven a decent chance in MTL and very good chance here and fell through. Atleast hustle and play hard make an effort, he just doesnt. Atleast show you belong in the lineup, if yuou cant score, pass ,forecheck, then hustle skate hard thorw body checks show emotion and he dont. he did this to himself, no one did this to him. thats just my opinion.
BINGO, HE HAS NO HEART!

Most of the team isn't scoring, but it's still no excuse, Hossa had the opurtunity to grab the bull by the horns & shine, he could gave driven harder to the net, stood in front of the net & screened a goalie, shot the puck instead of passing, he choose not to.
So, his time is all ut up, time to move on.

On the plus side, he is good down low, can cycle the puck, kills pens & is money in a shoot out, thats the defination of a 3rd or 4th line player.

Hossa shouldn't be on that line. I know I'm going to get knocked by some for this. Put Prucha on line 1, he has proven chemistry with Jagr (which no one on this team seems to have). Once Straka comes back, you obviously put Straka in that spot, but until then, put Prucha there, maybe it will wake both Jagr and Prucha up.

I like that idea, even try them is Straka returns?

Prucha - Dubi - Jagr
Straka - Gomez - Callahan
Avery - Drury - Shanahan
Moore - Betts - Hollweg/Orr
