1 goal in 9 games and does not look like himself? What’s going on?
Whether he's playing injured is speculation at this point.Playing injured. Proving how tough and, ironically, team first he is. Broke his sternum. But sure, come back early and be a fraction of yourself. Idiot.
lol 14 posts already.
Reinhart cursed the rest of the team so he could have his contract year
I think that's 3 posts...but I think Tkachuk will be fine, doesn't look healthy.
I'm not concerned since he's clearly not at 100%.
On the other hand, I'm a little bit concerned about how long will it take for him to be 100% if he keeps playing.
I know we already have many injuries. But wouldn't be better to have him misses a 12-15 games and have him at 100% for the rest of the season instead of having him at 80% for 82 games?
He still has 10 points in 11 games though. It tells a lot about how good he is.
Idk, not sure I wanna break up that first line. The Barkov - Reinhart - Rodriguez line is our most consistent offensive threat and overall best line most games.Just like with everyone else, I’m not going to judge anyone too harshly on offense until our D is healthy. Having Bennett will obviously be a big boost for them too. Should play Verhaeghe and tkachuk with Barkov in the meantime
Yeah thankfully the Rodrigues-Barkov-Reinhart has been fantastic so far, so I don’t mind not breaking them up. I just figured Verhaeghe-Barkov-Tkachuk would make a hell of a line until bennett is back and obviously luostarinen-Lundell-Reinhart have had continuity for the past couple years.Idk, not sure I wanna break up that first line. The Barkov - Reinhart - Rodriguez line is our most consistent offensive threat and overall best line most games.
I know we wanna get Verhaeghe and Tkachuk going, but if we put them with Barkov that 2nd line will be even more unbalanced. Rodriguez - - Reinhart with Lundell or Luo.... I mean, pairing our hottest goalscorer with 2 offensive duds is a good way to kill his hotstreak.
Besides, Tkachuk is starting to pick it up offensively and physically.
