Tough call when Hendricks comes back.

When he and Tanev are healthy it'll be interesting to see who comes out.

Roslovic has been pretty good, mistakes are minimal.

I would still like to get back to the MP Henricks Armia line. They were amazing.

Roslovic isn't coming out of the lineup.

Laine. Scheif. Wheels
Perreault. Little. Ehlers
Connor. Roslo. Armia
Copp. Lowry. Tanev

Roslo hasn't played a shift at C since he came up. He's not about to start by replacing Lowry.

If he sticks in the lineup when they're healthy, it will be at 4RW. I think he'll be a non waiver casualty and brought up after rosters expand though. Would like to see him with Petan and Copp when that happens.

I would not like to go back to limiting one of our most effective players to 10 minutes of ice time while also breaking up our best line.

My preference when healthy would be:

Laine-Scheifele-Wheeler
Perreault-Little-Ehlers
Copp-Lowry-Armia
Connor-Petan-Roslovic

PoMo probably replaces Petan and Roslovic with Hendricks and Tanev, however.

If the Blues lose to Colorado tomorrow and we beat them Friday, I think we pretty much have a top 2 spot in the division locked up barring a 5-6 game losing streak. Hopefully things go our way.

Keep up on the conversation. It's not difficult when all the related posts are one after another

No room to keep Roslovic in the top 6. This is a good problem to have.
post 63
But there should definitely be room in the top 12.
post 66
Where? Lowry? Armia? Off wing over Connor?
There's nothing wrong with a 21 year old playing on the 4th line or developing further in the AHL.
Letting our prospects stew in junior, the NCAA & on the Moose is the difference between the Jets & the Oilers.

Someone felt he was cracking the top 9 once everyone's healthy. He's not. You're roster isn't even accurate for Fridays game. Tanev is week to week as announced by Maurice on Monday. Line rushes were apparent this afternoon:

Laine-Scheifele-Wheeler
Perreault-Little-Ehlers
Connor-Copp-Armia
Dano-Petan-Roslovic

That said once healthy the team will revert to some combination of

Laine-Scheifele-Wheeler
Perreault-Little-Ehlers
Copp-Lowry-Armia
Connor-Hendricks-Tanev
Pressbox (Dano/Matthias)

with Roslovic, Petan & Lemieux all back on the Moose. Only way Roslovic stays up with when everyone healthy is demoting Connor in his place.

Take the time to learn the rules of waiver eligibility & the forward roster becomes self evident.

You may be right but he also is likely recalled right after the trade deadline in this scenario don't you think?

This one will be one worth waking up for. This is what I have wanted to see since the beginning - LSW. Schef might be a bit rusty but I still be he will get at least two points!

Lots of forward talent in this line up. Hope Morrissey Myers hang in but I am not a fan of the pair as the top unit.

This is pretty much my ideal lineup, although putting Connor with Lowry and Armia and sliding Copp to 4C with Petan and Roslo has some appeal to me as well.

Who said anything about limiting him to 10 mins? He was playing around 12-13 when he was on the 4th line.

I really like this lineup with some fluidity for Connor and Roslovic moving up depending on how the top six are doing. Unfortunately I don't think PoMo will bump Hendricks and Tanev unless they play extremely poorly.

If we are healthy with Dano/Matthias in the press box, no need to have extra bodies kicking around when the Moose are also making their run at a spot. If they are needed in the lineup (and I'd like to believe that Roslo & Petan might be), then different story. Otherwise, may as well be sharpening up on the Moose.

That stretch of games was Perreault's lowest ATOI this season, his 5v5 TOI was far below what it should be.
