Re: 2017 IIHF World Championship

AYRT I think they are trying to spark up some of the players, hopefully, they well revert to some of the other lines. Maybe it's the wake up call they need.

It's pretty obvious that both Johnson and Pickard are back up goalies for a reason. I wanted to see what Pickard could do this year, and the answer is he does that. He has great games and bad games. They have space for another skater and another goalie, but I'm not sure they will find someone else willing to come at this point.

AYRT. I thought that might be the case. After all, MacKinnon & Skinner are the scoring leaders on the team, so it made sense to move them to lines that don't particularly work. Maybe the lack of results will make them revert to the previous setup?

I don't think Holts would have said no to finishing his season on a better note than that G7 vs the Pens.

Well putting Skinner and MacKinnon back on the same line seems to have helped, judging by the sheet. I couldn't watch the game today though, so I don't know how much better or worse it was.
