Can someone help me understand our obvious philosophy on not taking the body or taking it very sparingly?

What is the theory?

Don’t want to spend any time in the ice bath.

Nice work, Power

Could be Okposo?  Could be Anderson?  Could be Hall?   But you want it to be Kopitar, Fluery, Maroon.

Thanks Jeff

The players are soft

Now we have a nail biter Alamo style 10 minutes.

That makes more sense... Could have been Kane but I guess we were so stacked with talent. I hated the idea at the time but would love to have him in hindsight.

What’s the worry?  They lose a meaningless game?

He didn’t want to be a Sabre as reported everywhere

For real? I didn't see that.

[Pimlach]

Clifton hitting.  No fair. 

[Mango]

It’s weird they both collapse AND leave a Flyer alone on the backside of UPL in the crease. 
 

One would think that having more guys standing around the same spot might mean one Sabre might take the man in front of a wide open net?

Watching 3rd from the plane, effort looks good to me.

QUINN TIMES TWO

[Porous Five Hole]

Benson and Quinn need to be stapled to each other’s line next year. Their hockey sense is just ridiculous.

Get that boy some hats!

[Pimlach]

We needed that Quinner. 

[bob_sauve28]

Benson and Quinn are magic!!

[GoPuckYourself]

Benson Thompson and Quinn line 1 please.

 

[Second Line Center]

If Quinn played this whole season we’re a playoff team I’ll never be convinced otherwise.  

[DarthEbriate]

Quinn is still good. Quick hands.

Rousek had a decent shift earlier, a zone clear, got open for a breakaway, and then 2 blocked shots.
