“It’s been four-plus weeks of the Palát, Hischier and Bratt line putting up mediocre five-on-five results. So, what’s the solution? It’s pretty simple. Break them up.” [Infernal Access]

I watched the early part of the game vs SEA and saw 2 areas of concern:
1) Predictable strong-side breakout (vs a forecheck that is set up to neutralize it)
2) Poor spacing in OZ

Latest on Timo Talk from Pierre LeBrun: “Worth noting, though, that as of Thursday, teams hadn’t been given permission by the Sharks to talk with Meier’s agent Claude Lemieux. It would make sense that the Sharks eventually do give that. And who’s interested? The Devils and Hurricanes are two teams, for sure, among many others. The cost to get in the game will depend on whether an extension is worked out, but generally speaking, it should be three assets.” [The Athletic ($)]

Patrick Kane: Not a huge fan of the Rangers acquiring Vladimir Tarasenko. “It’s not like the happiest I’ve been to hear about a trade, but I think the Rangers I definitely pay attention to, intrigued by for obvious reasons.” [NHL.com]
