Wasn’t on my bingo card, but someone needs to shake up the lineup
Just saw that. dunno what happened i thought he was doing better than say… douglas lol
Fuck me man, moving Geekie down is not the answer; maybe I’m wrong tho
Everyone in here keep in mind Geekie is the only waiver exempt player on the roster – this probably means Zemgus draws back in Thursday. Geekie also isn’t going to get better playing 4C and 5-10 minutes a night …
I think it’s more about keeping Geekie well oiled, I think. He needs to play big minutes to develop.
But then again, Chaffee is logging less minutes than Geekie lately, so not sure that reason truly stands up.
He has been a non contributor. He needs to get lots of ice time and he’s not going to get that playing the 4th position. Finley has been better in the center position winning faceoffs. We are not good on that dot at the moment any improvement is welcomed. If this continues he could be trade bait. Disappointed in his development and we forget he’s just 21 years of age lots of time to develop into something we expected. He needs to be able to compete on the 2nd/3rd line groups not the 4th line throw in.
Also, he is waiver exempt and that is a big issue. We don’t want to lose either Finley or Douglas they both fill needs.
Time for the leadership to show up and play MUCH BETTER HOCKEY the the rest will take care of itself.
Get him more reps and playing time while keeping all our guys from getting snagged off waivers, I don’t see it as a dumb move
