While I'm not happy with the result, I am happy with the effort. It's just good to see them put in a 60 minute effort against the top team in the east. Although we lost some positives can be taken out of the game and should be taken with them to NY for their game on Wed.
I think the main reason for the recent sucess is not having Audette and Juneau in the lineup with Dagenais and Begin taking their places. Dagenais may be a little slow but at 6'5 and a rocket of a shot(21 goals in 63 career games)he is a must stay in our lineup and the 5'8 snakebitten Audette could be traded for a bag of pucks for all I care. And of yeah his over 3 Million dollars contract :roll:
As for Juneau, I still have tons of respect for this guy but he is just too old. He had some great years back in the day but IMO he is not what this team needs right now. In order for us to compete we need guys who are fast and will get their nose dirty, which brings me to Begin. This guy is your stereotypical pest. He isn't afraid of anyone and he has good speed. He has done an excellent job as our checking center.
Did the Zednik-Riberio-Dagenais line ever look great tonight. They got both of our goals and could of had a couple more.
If CJ keeps this lineup we should be able to compete everynight, especially with Jose backing us up
