   >I felt we’ve got to get out of our own heads, and as I said yesterday, we’re not going to get back to where we need to be strategizing. It’s got to be compete and work first as a primary. This is something that can stimulate that …

   Ya I agree we needed some changes but this doesn’t look right to me.

   That second line will get caved for possession, I expect

   I would like to see

   72-24-89

   53-19-22/77

   37-17-71

   28-21-22/77

   Defensive pairings are good with Clague over Bryson.

   I’m not sure I’d take away all of Thompson’s toys like this….but I was wanting a line blender back when Cozens went out, so I don’t hate it. I think the boys need their cages rattled a bit the way they’ve played the last 3-5 games. I also would have given UPL the hook after the 3rd or 4th goal by Calgary, for the same reason. They need to wake the fuck up and embrace the challenge of a playoff race. It will be interesting (and/or painful) to watch this unfold.

   The second line is gonna fucking suck absolutely zero speed on tages wing

   My ideal line change up would’ve been

   Skinner- cozens- okposo

   Girgs- tage- Olof

   Quinn- krebs- tuch

   Mitts- jost- peterka

   Krebs and Quinn is interesting, let’s see who they put with…

   Oh. Girgs. Of course it’s Girgs.

    Skinner just feels like a second line guy to me, I feel like Skinner – Cozens – Quinn is the line
