Not surprised Tito got sent down. He’s been a healthy scratch 8 times this season. The kid needs to play.

Get used to seeing Prince and Quine every game.

Beauvillier isn't an NHL player, probably should get buried there, of course I am sure he is going to get a call up faster than Ho-Sang because we all know Ho-Sang is being held to a higher standard than everyone else

Finally, Beau need to get stronger and show the coaching staff what kind of player he can be. Bernier is back where he belongs.

Now just gotta get Quone down thete, trade Nelson and Chimera for whatever we can get and being in some physical, hard checking bottom 6 NHLers

this is my only problem, i don’t mind beau going down, but i’d rather have him in the lineup than prince or quine.

This is the right move for Beau. Let him regain his confidence in Bridgeport.
I know some on the board have him pegged as Cizikas 2.0 , but I am hoping he can develop into a 2nd liner.

Beau needs to play with talented players, as witnessed with his give-and-go goal with JT a few games ago. same as the end of last year, Beau was excellent on the top line.

he is being ruined by playing with crap like Nelson, Quine and Prince, so i am ok with this. Fritz deserves a call up, too. nice to see that the mgmt will make changes when things are off.

Very good move. Finally. Beau needs icetime, and Bernier is not NHL-level.

I'm excited to see Fritz play...He just my be the third line centre we've been needing..no pressure..Not expecting much, but hoping to be pleasantly surprised.

Beau needed to go down, Bernier doesn't have it on the NHL level.

Nelson/Quine/Fritz will be the 3rd line, I think if Fritz can project on the NHL level to be a 15 goal scorer and Nelson gets his touch back... Quine can be a 20 assist guy, so the 3rd line would work...

Prince is probably going to play over them though and he is a dead end, because he is not as fast as he was 2 years ago

For a 3rd line, I want guys who can forecheck, play good fundamental defense and knock opponents off pucks..Nelson, Quine, Prince & Beau most certainly can't/won't do that and I have no idea about Fritz

Until we get at least 1 line that can do that (even the Zeeker line is not as successful as it used to be) I don't think we have the horses on the front end (not to mention the lapses the shortcomings on the back end) to be a serious playoff team. Hopefully Snow can do something about that without dealing the farm.
