WK's 6 v 5 Warriors
9/13/2008 at 10:41 AM
Interesting game, Hildebrand and Dubyk were poor in the first period. WK's offence was slick in the first, especially Fehr, Green and Lewadniuk. I hope that line tays together, but we still need a winger for Clark and Lowry, maybe King until we know if mayorov will be here? Fehr and Green (along with Bartek) were the best line in the playoffs, so lets hope they continue with Lewadniuk, 7 points last night.
Hayes looked solid.
Miller was too aggressive, but better that than too passive, they need to teach him when to step up and when not to. Bestalnd is small, but had good skating and passing, he's made the team in my mind. Hale had a great open ice hit and followed it up with a solid scrap.
Schenn is still struggling to match last years heights, but it will come. Why the heck did Glennie decide to fight Knackstedt who is a giant 20 year old, I wish Erb and Melnychuk would have stepped in to ensure that doesn't happen, Glennie ate a lot of punches, with his concussion history this is the last thing we need to see, good spirit, but needless. Ciarelli played with great intensity, but is there room for him, Cowan and Jeffries on this team?
Could be a testy return game in MJ, maybe Clark and Lowry will play?
