Makes you worry about cohesion etc. Lines are clicking right now...unless you do something with the 4th line.

Will be curious to see if TT draws back in tonight and where. Also Drury should be getting close.

Drury ya. TT could be dropped in on 1 with no ill effects in my opinion. He’d probably even boost Guenz shooting opportunities more so than the current makeup.

I think you need to leave Jarvy on the 1st line. They need some tenacity...Turbo isn't that!

Don’t discount turbo though. The guy is one of our best 2 way forwards, is a unrated passer plus a decent shot and is a heavier forecheck than Jarvis when he’s playing physical(his board puck control game is miles ahead of Jarvis still). That said I could see him slotting in the shutdown line against top teams though. 
 

Jarvis’s individual offensive ceiling is higher for sure, but he also plays a similar role to Guenz. That why I think allowing Guenz to play his normal role with TT doing setup is the best way to go against most teams.

Don't over think it have you seen how potent Jarvy and Guezt are together? All you need to see!

Cam York was chirping the hell out of Jake last night and even squared up with him a couple times. Jake just skated away and ignored him, which was a good thing. Couple guys on the Flyers took issue with Jake- wonder if it's a Philly-Pittsburgh thing...

First clinches of the season can occur tonight, Florida and Boston are in the same boat as us where the caps need to beat the redwings and they need to win their respective games(for an 8th clinch). Rags just need to beat Philly or have the redwings lose. 

We need as posted above basically a win and either a red wings loss(8th clinch) or win and Philly loss in regulation(3rd in metro clinch).

    • LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.  Mock drafts 
    • Have you seen the mock drafts lately?   Most of them have us taking a QB. Just because you aren't high on these QBs doesn't mean the Panthers or other teams aren't.   If you want me to be real I just think you a Tmac homer and all you care about is us drafting him. It's why you get so defensive when people mention other prospects.   Be open to other people's ideas. Nobody in this thread is saying anything bad about your boy Tmac. 
    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
