Power Play / Penalty Kill
How in the world do we have the record that we do and have such an atrocious penalty kill and impotent power play unit ... seriously ....

I think the best way to put it is exactly what Peters and Speltz have said numerous times this season...5 on 5 we're the best team in the league. Nobody can play with us 5 on 5 consistently.
We need to just stay out of the box...and I guess try to keep the other teams out of it too.

another awesome penalty kill effort ... 4 goals given up to Everett on the PK .....
1. stay out of the box
2. bench # 15...................

Well they had a better effort on Monday (albeit against Portland). 3-3 on the PP and 2-2 on the PK. I'm actually kind of surprised by the lack of total power play opportunities. WHL refs usually don't want fewer than ten power play opportunities per game, or so it seems.
That 3-3 on the PP was without Bowman and Wahl too. Something to build on anyway.

It was nice to score on some (for a change) ... seems like Peters is going to play with the lines a bit so he can figure out where the new guys can be the best fit ... I liked McCrae with Blacwater and Bruton ...

That line seems like it would work --- all three of those guys play "up and down" hockey...not alot of twisty cute passes, just to the net and in your face.Originally Posted by Pete76
If they stay with that line, where does Roman fit in?
Wahl/Bowman/Rutherford? Kelner?
kelner ? with wahl & bowman gawd that was a good laff....thanks

Why not? He seemed to work well with Blackwater & Roman...Mitch and Bowman can score --- just having a guy with them that can make sure nobody tries to take any liberties would be good enough. Kelner can stand in front of the net and look stupid just as good as anyone else.
vci33 ...just because...
lines while bows is out
koper - mccrae - blackwater
brutsy - wahl - TJ
donny - roman - rudy
kelner - compton - letts
i can just see wahl feeding TJ busting in off the wing with a full head of steam.....
