2-edge sword. On one end his speed and shot will help us create chances (hopefully), on the other we're dressing a player who's coming off significant injury who will be rusty in a must-win game.
Yup they'll wait, it will be nice to have fresh legs on the ice. CK will be in beast mode tonight, someone needs to show Nash how its done.
Mel. Im with you on this one. There's not a chance in hell that CK is not on the ice tonight if he has really been cleared by the Dr.
This is a really good point. One thing I dont understand is Nash is sukkkkking again but has been playing out of position. I know he needs to adjust but he is an important player who is struggling, they need to get him to the side he is most comfortable
I hate that as an excuse...Nash technically is playing out of position as a left handed shot on the right side.
I'm not making an excuse he has totally sukkkkked in playoffs. Just saying nothing wrong with doing what you can to make him more successful as he is a key player. Agree with you Al We Win Tonight! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
getting kreider back if anything puts more pressure on the defensemen because of his skill set and speed. pressure is key because the pens do seem to turn the puck over a lot
We've had discussions about this with Gaborik too Al, I think it's much less of an excuse in Nash's case who is supposed to be just taking the puck and beating defenders with a power move. He's not even trying that right now and I dont think the side he's on makes a difference in that respect. But like I said, it can't hurt to just have him on his comfortable side.
agree Prod...its not like he isn't finding himself on the right side, he is refusing....or deciding not to...use his body and power himself to the net, settling on carrying the puck to the blue line, stop...looking to pass or a sensless easily stoppable shot from above the circles
Hey Mess, just had a thought.....if Kreider's timing may be off when he comes back.... what does that say about Nash's, MSL's, Stepan's timing ??? LOL
Since all of their timing seems to be off the past two games, Krieder should mesh perfectly with them....
Don't put the pressure on Kreider! Sure he will be a big help but we need everyone to step up. Enough talk. Lets go Ranger's
Kreider gives me something to look forward to in the future thankfully. The guy has size and speed. He hits, skates and scores. Piece of shit Nash should learn from him.
