Monty switches Buch for Toro

Post by Galatians221jb1 »

Wow! Bold move halfway into second period. Hope that gets the team riled up. Other thing catching my eye is Holloway seems to be our best faceoff man tonight. Buch demoted to fourth line lets him concentrate on defense. He’s pretty useless on offense

Toro at least plays like he's hungry for it. He doesn't have all the skills but he has the hunger. Buch has no hunger no skills no drive. He kills almost every play the puck touches his stick. A couple of games ago I counted 6 consecutive times Buch touched the puck and immediately gave it away. Every time he touched the puck they lost possession. Play Toro on the 1st line let him go to the net. Put that big body in front.

I personally don't see how you ever bench Kyrou and have Buch on the top line.

Its like we are trying to create a bad culture.

I think its probably time to make some changes.
