Hmm:

Turbo - Staal - Aho
Skinner - Lindy - McGinn
Rask - Ryan - Williams
Nordstrom - Kruger - Jooris

If Canes really are a top-line center away from making the playoffs, is this the guy?

lol

Thank you for finding that! I was going to post earlier about an article hinting at Rask being secretly competitive and RF thinking he could take the next step, couldn't remember where it came from. I read that just before the season started and was really impressed, it's just left me in disbelief with his play this year. I know some people said a lot of his points were from being carried by Skinner, but i never expected him to be this irrelevant/terrible.

I think if him and Faulk were playing like their former selves, we're in a playoff spot. The 2 of them really need to figure it out.

^ I'd be up for trying those lines. I know Peters has said he sees Lindholm as a winger, but i think its worth a try. I find it hard to believe he'd be worse than Rask right now, and I always believed his skill set was more suited to C anyways, even if the coach doesn't agree with me

Faulk + Rask + 2nd for RNH + Poolparty?

 

[The Faulker 27]

I'd love to be rid of Rask. I was never a big fan anyway. To me, he always seemed slow, and clumsy even when he was scoring more. Unfortunately, we'll have to continue to endure him on the team.

Rask's problem is that he has become a perimeter player almost exclusively. His lack of footspeed wasn't a problem when he was taking a direct path to the net. He came around the backside of the net last side with a great chance to walk in and try to stuff it on the short side but he instead pushed it down the board to the point. In the past he would've gone to the net without hesitation.

Skinner - Lindy - McGinn?

I like the sound of that

We're promised a BMW with this team but end up getting a 1999 Honda Civic instead.

At least the Civic has good gas mileage though.

And the answer is a resounding Enn, Oh!

Enn, Oh! Enn, Oh! Enn, Oh! Ee, Ee!

Right now, Ryan is much better at being a center than Rask is.

yeah, Ryan over Rask @ center, and it`s a fine lineup
