Go Preds go. They played the Avs hard

I wonder why Tucker and Mailloux are back together again. Hopefully they'll be better than before.

What's the over/under on their minutes? 11 minutes?

I’m guessing Monty is sick of the lack of chemistry on defense. Going back to the pairs that played well together last year before he started tinkering. Faulk and Broberg are good together. And I’ll take the under on the 3rd pair.

Yes, this is what I've been calling for. Fowler-Parayko.

Broberg-Faulk is good with me, and it locks the top-4 they go to anyways late in the game. Mailloux has proven enough to be with Tucker the whole game, making it a pretty tough 3rd pair. If Mailloux can simply be a Bortz this season, I'm good. Fabbri needs to take him out one night and have Bortz and Steen join them.

Wait a second. I haven't even talked about the real shocker of this lineup. Fabbri signs and joins the 3rd line next to Dvo on the road in Nashville!

Yeah yeah, I know, he's washed up, Army is dumpster diving to salvage a lost season... but I don't care. He is a heck of a hockey player when he's in the lineup. I remember watching his first goal, might've been the only opening night game I've gone to...Lehtera with a sweet behind the back pass to a trailing Fabbri (his and McDavid's first NHL game)...

Maybe he clicks with Dvorsky. If he's in shape and gets up to speed, he oughtta play with Thomas.

Go get'em 4th line...

LGB!

fabbri was at .50 ppg last year which isn't terrible. in fact he's done that the last 5 seasons. So he proves to be able to get on the scoreboard every other game on average. But the killer is the most games he's ever gotten to since the injury is 68. Hopefully he has a spark for the boys, and he can survive long enough to allow people to come back.

I said it in another thread, when he first came up with the Blues, he was quickly one of my favorites. Around that time it was Schwartz and Fabbri. Fabbri was super exciting to watch as a player. He was just a different style of player than the other guys wearing the note at the time.

+1. He was trending to be the play-driver that Tarasenko had needed for a while.

Truly hope that happens, but this is a guy who was cut by Penguins in October.

And, he was not .5 PPG last year, as a different poster asserted, much less his career.

No, but that would be a blessing...

[slimjay63801]

Frigging Stamkos....

[HighStick]

Even though they didn't score I thought they had some decent setups on that PP.

[zamadoo]

Quality chances, can't score.

Another quality chance miffed by McGing, and they take it down for an odd man rush and score. 0-1 Predators when we were building momentum.

[DawgDad]

Ouch.

[HighStick]

Dam it!

[82birds]

down 1
we'll have to come back
