No sign of Norlininder yet …

 

We'll see if he plays tonight - Laval hasn't released their lineup yet.

 

Edit - he's in, not sure for who yet.

Interesting ... wonder if they are concerned about the health of a defenceman if they are inserting Norlinder as a "centre"

Might just be a way to get Norlinder in there as they wouldn't have flown him over to sit as a healthy scratch.  This way, he'll get some power play time at least.  He's listed as a centre on the graphic because the other two are wingers and their graphic for the D isn't big enough to fit another defenceman in it.

 

1-1 after 1.  Ylonen with the goal for Laval.

Hence the QUOTES around centre ... I was never suggesting that is where they intended to play him ... my question remains relevant ... is there a defenceman whose health isn immediate issue?

It's possible.  We know Belpedio was banged up last weekend so it could be a hedge against that.  Or it could be they'd rather him play 8 minutes on the back end in certain situations over having someone like Condotta playing 8 minutes on the fourth line.  Or they just didn't want him sitting for two straight games after flying him over and this was the easiest way to get him in there to see if he can outperform one of the other six.

Norlinder 2 shots so far.

Per AHL Box Score he got those in the second period, on one shift (11:32 and 11:27) ... sadly no TOI from AHL stats to know how much he played overall.

I didn't catch all of the game but from what I could gather from the audio feed, he was being deployed as a 7th D so the TOI I imagine was fairly low.
