Trizzak Posted January 15, 2018 Author Share Posted January 15, 2018 Found the reason. You'd think Scherbek would get a call up though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoRvInA Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 he may still end up being called up Question is... will Shaw version 2 be forced to play centre? lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime Minister Koivu Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 We are down a Shaw so this makes sense... Not to mention that we haven't had a bargain bin 4th liner picked up this year yet and there are quotas to fill. He will probably be playing centre because there is no way possible that Galchenyuk is allowed to. Not bitter about this move it just doesn't make sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commandant Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 I understand it. We are down two forwards so we picked one up who can play some minutes. He's also likely to get minutes down the stretch, once some of our other pieces (ie Plekanec) are moved out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At first glance I thought we put Galchenyuk at centre and call up someone from laval and problem solved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toronthab Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Did we start a 5th line? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MB being MB, as usual, patching the holes with scraps of whatever he can find while refusing to develop young players by giving them a shot in those roles (except Drouin, of course...who gets all the chances in the world to masquerade as a center).

Chris Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 I would have called up Mccarron and Sherbak myself. But you can never have enough #12 forwards and #7 dmen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has to be at least one of those - given his face off percentage, it can’t be to help us win more draws! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm comfortable in making the call right now that Shaw was next on Chicago's list but Florida got to him first... It feels right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
