Nagy may sit again
``We'll see,'' Crawford said. ``We thought everybody that played up front, I didn't see any passengers last night. So it would be difficult for me to take a forward out of that lineup, but it's a consideration. I know Ladislav wants to play a game where he's contributing. We've given him specific instructions on how he's got to play. His job for us is to be a strong offensive player, to not get knocked off the puck and to use his great ability to create with the puck. We want to see more of that from him. So we've given him those specific instructions and that's how he has to contribute to us. Hopefully he'll get back in the lineup. I know he will eventually and we need that game from him.''

Uhhh, can somebody say Ivanans?
Nagy is a talented player with great offensive skills. I believe he got Crawford's message loud and clear. You want to send a message, I'm all for that, but you don't want to damage the player's confidence.
He should be re-instated into the line-up against Calgary, and let's see what he does.
Bench Zeiler or Ivanans. They're expendable and between them, they have Zero talent.
Anthony, you go offsides more than Dustin Brown.
Anthony, I thought Nagy was a terrible signing and was trash? Now you want him BACK in the line up?
Hey, I'll be the first to admit I hate Ivanans. I absolutely hate watching him out there trying to learn as he plays, but even he is doing his job effectively.
He is hitting people.
Thats really all he's paid to do. So I don't think even he really has earned a benching, other than the fact he is a role player who expcts to sit every now and then.
Kevin, never said he was trash. Only said he was over-paid. But that's redundant now.
He's on our team and he does have talent.
I hope he starts showing some of it for our team.
I wish him luck.
