Few thoughts, tonight was a good game but there were still some telling things -

- 1st line PP looks fantastic, but Mantha should not be making drop passes on the 2nd line for the cycle. I get that we want him to play a full game but with his current skillset, he's a shooter. There were a couple instances where his pass worked but the velocity was too low so the other team was able to set up for the rest of the play.
- Wasn't on the Ericsson hate train until recently, he lost a LOT of one on one battles against smaller players that he could have won by putting a shoulder into them, glad to see he was the lowest ice time among defensemen tonight.
- Related to the above, Blash has gotten a lot of flack for not adjusting but at least for the past 10-ish games, he's been fully willing to throttle ice time for guys who are sucking during the game. In TBL-DET, Kronner and Ericsson played the fewest minutes when they fucked up for the first two goals
- Nyquist is not fitting in. Abby-Z-Larkin is fantastic. Tatar-Sheahan is fantastic. Nyquist isn't working with either Z or Sheahan, but he's absolutely a top-6 player worth his contract and should be given an opportunity elsewhere if someone offers good value.

If they miss playoffs I'm not too bummed because they've been playing like a bubble team. The streak is only significant if the team gets cheated out of it somehow, like the 69-70 Habs.

Would not agree that there needs to be a culture change like a lot of people say, since it's only a matter of time that they hit the lottery on late round forwards rather than defensemen.


All aboard the Nyquist trade train

Idk, a lot of people are on that trade train cuz they think Nyquist is bad. I don't think that at all, he has so much talent but he's not clicking with anyone. I know Kenny's job is to get the highest value possible but at the same time, IF he trades him (which is a big if) I should hope he asks Gus who he'd like to play for/with and goes hard on that team to get a fair deal.

He's a 20-30 goal scorer and I'd like to search google for "nyquist" without this being the result (though to be fair I've done more googling on sampling theorem than I'd like to admit because of work):
