Amerks Game 1 vs Syracuse

Created by: Burnzie8_88_4Cup

Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Games 1, 2, and 5 if nec. in ROC. I don't know the status of Murray, he didn't play last week. I don't know if it was injury or maintenance? I'm guessing he would be 3 LW if healthy, over Wahlberg. I'll update later. Cuse are physical, but I think we have too much skill over the long haul. Should be fun. GO Merks!!! Edit: This is the Lineup, Neuchev and Kozak alternate on 4 LW.

Well they can't replace his size, only guy maybe if Wahlberg isn't going, is Kozak, but I haven't seen him in a couple weeks. I don't know if he's injured as well??

Yeah, I can't wait, probably the best team I've seen since the lockout team in 04-05.

Very high hopes for Levi here. I worry a bit about the blueline though.

Levi's the reason they could make a serious run. Def, Davies and Cecconi are the shutdown pair if you will. They have the offense in Davies, Prow and Novikov. Novikov and Metsa have been pretty solid for rookies. Only thing, they may miss Stillman's physicality, really only Cecconi is as physical.

Yeah its just that in zone prow, RJ and Cecconi still seem to struggle quite a bit against a heavy forecheck. I probably dont watch them as often as you so feel free to tell me im totally wrong lol. But its something i noticed in the ones i watched.

No that's fair, for whatever reason, they get caught in their zone and have trouble getting out. Also, sometimes they're in such a hurry to go, that they turn it over in the neutral zone, then can't get out and get tired. They can be quick, but they have be smart, make the safe play, the offense will be there.

His goal was a nice move, but I've been impressed w/ Ostlund.

I'm old school, I'm once you get the red Line, dump it deep and go get it. None of this 1 on 3 bringing it in the zone.
