***Ottawa Senators vs. LA Kings GDT 11/27/21 4:00pm on BSW***

Sens could use a piece of cardboard box and still 37 or 43 saves will be made

Not saying it's definitely the correct decision, but i can see why they reunited those two. I think you could make the case for loading up the middle 6. If Kopitar's line can just sort of play their normal defensive hockey against top lines, that leaves a lot of opportunity for the bottom 9 to matchup against lesser opponents.

Like, i dont love Brown's game right now, but if playing him with Kopitar ultimately increases that line's production and possession, then you go with it.

Then TM should put Iafallo back there too. Then let Kempe play with Danault and Arvidsson.
 
Thanks for the thread, Nyssa!

32 or 36 saves. Kings will probably shoot like there is no tomorrow and score minimally...

go Kings!

Wouldn’t be surprised to see it happen if Kopitar and brown can’t get something going here soon. But I imagine he isn’t going to simply blow up the lines completely. Danault and Iaffalo have been pretty good together so far. No reason to screw that up.

In theory these moves make sense as Kempe's power forward game should be a big help to the 1st line and Arvidsson's high shot mentality should help the 2nd. The flip side is it reduces the effectiveness of Kempe's speed a bit and makes the 2nd line weaker defensively. Makes me wonder what the roles of these lines really are.

Wish they'd leave the 2nd line as is (as we know it clicks) and experiment with the others.
 
I'm going with 29 or 37 saves.

Hate this 4pm start, but it's better than a 1pm start, so I guess I shouldn't complain.

GO KINGS GO!!!

Last 2 or 3 games looks as though the honeymoon is over for Danault and Iafallo. And I think Juice would make a better line mate for both 24 and 33.
