Freddie has earned a night off, let Raanta get his first action against the joke of a hockey team we play tomorrow.

Ya, I do really wonder if Rod just plays the hot hand until he loses though. I think starting Raanta is the right call, let him get his legs.

Up until now he's had plenty of rest between games, this is our first B2B and we had 5 and 3 day breaks. With as Inept as Chicago is this season tomorrow would be the day though.

I'm hoping they give guys like Marty/Stepan and Cole a rest too and get Jarvis and Smith a shot. Even if Jarvis starts on the 4th line I would like to see him get a shot as we kept him on the roster for a reason, and are using up a year of his ELC so might as well. I don't see Fast getting bumped down with the way he's playing

    • Exactly, like Hill he is just an athlete that happens to be able to throw the ball.  I’m sure, with some reps and time, he could catch just fine.  That’s why I said “and catch” Taysom Hill has beat the poo out of us and many other teams during the SP years.  If we had that!!!  Owe Mang!   Edit:  I’ll add this, 4th and 1 or 2 on the goal line?  We would get 6 points with that dude! Edit 2:  he may not now or ever be a QB1, but he can avg more than 6 yards per play
    • Eh that's debatable at the end of the day. Different schools of thought and whatnot. Generally teams are not overpaying RB's anymore and they don't need to. Most are signing mid-level FA's or drafting them. But they are still fairly important. We have seen one RB drafted in the top 10 in 2025 and an RB just went 3rd overall in the draft a few days ago. You can argue how wise that is but no team generally wants to give an FA RB a huge payday. Yes having a competent and if need be dominant running game is still an asset. The main thing that has changed is how teams invest.
    • Except we have him playing safety, so there's that.
