AirScott Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 why haven't they just put together a powerplay line of Lemiuex, Crosby, LeClair, Gonchar, and Tarnstrom? couldn't they almost realistically net a PP goal 90% of the time? they almost wouldn't need a 2nd line for the powerplay. park LeClair in front of the net, and let Lemieux, Crosby, and Gonchar do their thing. even for the sake of having a good 2nd line, put Tarnstrom with Palffy and Reechi. ok, end of hockey related rant.

southsider2k5 Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 I don't know why, but lots of teams don't like to put all of their offense on one PP line. I guess its the whole putting your eggs in one basket thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess its the whole putting your eggs in one basket thing. true, but when those eggs consist of (arguably) the second greatest player of all time, the next Gretzky, and a damn good powerplay QB, it's a safer move than if other teams were to do it.

IlliniKrush Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 90% is ridiculously impossible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzie Montana Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 good question. Its a shame they have no W's yet. If they had a good goalie they'd be unbelievably awesome. Marc Andre Fleury is damn good though. He should be their No. 1 cause even when Thibault comes back he's just gunna get reinjured. Plus, Fleury has shown more upside that Thibault. I'm glad my boys, the Devils, are leading the division. Its good to see NY at the top too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both are quality, but the reason Fleury has more upside is cause he's 20 and Thibault is thirty-something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
