Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

Dude Friedman has to play. If you've watched episode 6 of in the room on YouTube (Penguins series on their channel) then you'll know why. The dude was chirping players and pissing them off so much that they get distracted and try and fight Friedman the whole game. He brings a while nothing element to the pens and that game against tampa when we won 5-1, holy crap Friedman won us that game. He was chirping everyone and tampa only focused on Friedman the while game. We need him if were gonna win games in the playoffs. He also does those things without taking penalties.

I very much agree, Friedman should play. Especially after watching that In The Room episode, really made me like him more than I already did. So I agree with literally everything here.

Yup. He just plays a very physical fast game that we need for the playoffs and either he plays over Ruhwedel or Pettersson. Idc who he replaces at this point, I just hope hes in the lineup

I think you gotta play him over Ruhwedel in the playoffs. If Beaulieu is healthy, he might play too in place of Pettersson for the physicality.

I disagree. That Zucker - Malkin - Rakell line played great together against the wild until Zucker got injured .

Blows my mind why they keep alternating him in and out. When someone is hot you keep them in. That's how you win in playoffs and how the narratives develop.

I'd play Heinen over E-Rod, but we need Zucker to be healthy and play.

naw....I'd say Heinen over Erod, but not Zucker. Perfect world where everyone is healthy for the playoffs the lines should be...
Guentzel-Crosby-Rust
Zucker-Malkin-Rakell
Heinen-Carter-Kapanen
Boyle-Blueger-McGinn
Dumo-Letang
Beaulieu-Marino
Matheson-Friedman
Jarry

I feel like Beaulieu could help open things up for Marino because if he plays the physical pest game then they will worry about him instead of Marino. Same reason I put Friedman with Matheson.
