Oh goody joy joy. The amazing defensive depth that wilson gave the team is going to be put to the test.

Oh right I forgot wilson was putting together an ahl team on defense this year.

 

[hohosaregood]

At least, sprains. At worst, fractures. So...2-6 weeks? I dunno. Lets go baby sharks!

 

[LadyStanley]

Both apparently upper body.

Huh...the way Braun kinda went down on one knee at the end of that one shift made me think it was a leg injury. Color me surprised.

Pollak confirms "upper body injurieS"

So more Tennyson and Hannan or maybe Fedun gets the call up?

Goodrow, Tierney, or more John Scott.

Depending how the we do without them, maybe now we can be sellers at the TDL.

Who ever gets the call up on defense will be press boxing it. We get the wonderful trio of hannan, irwin, tennyson for how ever long braun is gone.

 

[hohosaregood]

Potentially, Sharks don't call up anyone. Play Goodrow/Scott, Hannan, Tennyson, and Irwin. That'd be ****ing awful.

Hypothetically, they might end up calling up Tarasov/Hamilton and Doherty/Fedun. Abeltshauser being a lefty makes it seem unlikely he gets a call up.

This is fates way of telling us that tanking is the solution.

Not like Braun has played well this season. He's been a major disappointment.

Braun's on pace for a 30+ point season. What he's lost in play quality defensively, he is making up for in production and they need it badly.

The defense has been pretty disappointing though. It's not even because he's making risky plays and getting burned. He's just making a lot of bad decisions.

I'm pretty sure that's because they've asked him to work on his offense. It's bound to happen if you change your game. He has to find the balance and it takes awhile to do that. I'm not concerned about Braun at all, and if he comes out of this as a true TWD it will be a real coupe. This is the right year to try something like this too, he'll either figure it out, or they'll have him go back to pure D.

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

Great. Just great. More Irwin and Hannan. Good for a goal or two against every game.

 

[Coily]

Mueller still around?

If so, is he alive?

If so, play that SOB.

I agree, I don't think Bruan's issues have anything to do with him looking to improve his offense, his issues seem like they're all in his head.

Also, it looked like he might have injured his elbow / arm & Wingels injury is likely his hand. The defense was already a mess & it's probably going to get much worse.

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

I mean, there have to be better options out there than Irwin, Hannan, and Tennyson that can be had for cheap.

Screw that.

Ice Tennyson, Hannan and Irwin. Infact, try them all at the same time. Put both Nemo and Stalock in goal as well. I bet we still get scored on with a 1 F, 3 D-men and 2 goalies.

This would make sense in theory if he were caught pinching or jumping up in the play, but his mistakes this year have been in the defensive zone mostly with brainfarts and overcommitments.

Blow it up, just win the Stadium Series game

Har!

Oh wait, we probably would...

Some ****** makeshift defense we got here...

I'm guessing they call up no one for Wednesday's match up against the Kings.

Maybe next week, after ASG break.

When/if players get put on IR, then they can recall someone(s).

Depending on Mueller's status, he MIGHT be put in lineup. But as of last week, he's still skating as an injured player, not one ready to come off IR.

Ya, if Mueller isn't close they might bring up a d-man just in case for Wednesday but they won't bring up another forward until after the break.

Considering the org is high on DeMelo & for some reason Doherty I wonder if one of those two might get a call next week.
