Carrick had 4:30, Cuylle and Kakko 12 minutes, Chytil 13. Terrible ice time management. I disagree about Rempe, time will tell but he has the necessary tools to be a decent 4th liner.
I agree with you panze. The kid worked hard all summer including time with Kreids and should be getting 10 minutes a game to get better and he sparks the team. Problem is lavs MO is always sucking off the vets and never penalizing them for dumb lazy plays. If torts is here zman, miller, trouba etc either get their asses benched, their time cut or actually wake up and straighten up. The more I see of miller the more I think they should convert him back to a wing. The kid is just braindead on defense.
Rempe just needs some time on pp1 to give him the emotional support to become a goal scorer /obviousjoke
Keep playing the vets on the pp who suck balls in the playoffs and can't even get this team to a finals despite having the best goalie in the world. It's obviously working.
I use Reaves as a frame of reference for Rempe's NHL ability, think Matt ha an edge on the skating and offense now with room for improvement especially if he can learn to park in front of the net without letting any part of his skates encroach the crease. Huge improvement from the days of Glass, Dorsett or Carcillo.
