dlbalr Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Duchene - Mitchell - Rantanen R. Bourque - MacKinnon - Comeau Grigorenko - Soderberg - Landeskog Martinsen - Colborne - Iginla Zadorov - Barrie Beauchemin - Goloubef Tyutin - Wiercioch Pickard Pacioretty - Plekanec - Radulov Lehkonen - Danault - Shaw Byron - Mitchell - Gallagher Carr - Flynn - Andrighetto Emelin - Weber Markov - Petry Beaulieu - Redmond Price I thought McCarron would have been in since he's a better fourth line option but that does not appear to be the case: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IN THE HEARTS OF MEN Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 McCarron is also nursing a wrist injury and was a game time decision last night. im of the belief that with enough minutes on the 2nd or 3rd line and not the 4th... I can see him finishing the season and playing a roll in the playoffs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commandant Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 I don't want a guy who can't produce offense in the AHL anywhere near the 2nd line in the NHL. Let him play on the fourth line fine, but we need production by committee in the top 9 with Galchenyuk out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xXx..CK..xXx Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Nice, I didn't realize we were playing Colorado today. Should be a nice change of scenery to watch. 2 hours ago, Commandant said: I don't want a guy who can't produce offense in the AHL anywhere near the 2nd line in the NHL. Let him play on the fourth line fine, but we need production by committee in the top 9 with Galchenyuk out. I'm not on either side of the debate but I don't think McCarron would ever be a long term solution in the top 6 right now. It doesn't mean that the team can't do it for 5-10 games within a season and for it to not actually work out. It happens all the time with young guys who come up full of adrenaline and who other teams don't pay much attention to. I see that it was being suggested that he stay in the top 6 all season long though and don't see that as realistically happening this season. I like McCarron more than you do but I'd hope we'd have a better lineup heading into the playoffs if we're going to go all the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlbalr Posted December 11, 2016 Author Share Posted December 11, 2016 This should be a nice opportunity to give Weber a lesser workload and really balance the ice time out. Needless to say, that was a fun period to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
