Woop. Team keeps making the right decisions.

 

[The Reaper]

No surprises there

 

[JMcLeaf]

Good Glad it's him

 

[Anthrax442]

Yeah, he really was the next in line. I do want to see Steckel in the lineup soon too.

 

[Quarter]

Excellente.

 

[Phion Keneuf]

Frattin - Kadri - Komarov

YAY!

Frattin - Kadri - Komarov

YAY!

I like that line, kadri and frattin have chemistry in AHL, that is a pesky skilled line

 

[leafsfuture]

Personally id rather not see Kadri with Frattin. As skilled as they are, they are both still young, and Frattin has shown a finishing problem in the NHL, while with Kadri the main issue has been consistency.

Put Frattin maybe with Grabo

I am going to start using Frattin as a verb.

He is really frattin' things up out there..

Leave the Grabo line alone.

 

[BonMorrison]

Frattin will likely play on the third line with Kadri/Komarov. He's played with Bozak and Kessel in the past with hilariously terrible results plus being defensively a mess. While MacArthur hasn't shown that much chemistry with the top line, it's a much better option.

 

[Deebo]

There wasn't really another option.

 

[Ramboshaw]

Glad to see they called up The Frat Pack instead of Connolly!

 

[TMLife*]

Damn if I was GM I'd just come on hfboards and listen to the majority of fans. We usually know what's up haha

 

[Ramboshaw]

Frat Pack - Krayon - Trollmorov

 

[false bobo]

I am going to start using Frattin as a verb.

please don't

 

[legendinblue]

Nice. I'm really excite about our forwards group.

 

[Once]

THANK GOD. THANK GOD THAT CONNOLLY WAS NOT RECALLED. Now my sadness about Lupes has mostly disappeared.

Line ups

Mac - Bozak - Kessel
JVR - Grabs - Kuli
Komarov - Kadri - Frattin
Brown - McClemment - Orr/Steckel

 

[Diamond Joe Quimby]

The optimist in me believes he will come up and show the same promise he did in his senior year at North Dakota, and the AHL playoffs last year. I'm a big believer in his abilities, not just as a grinding third liner, but as an individual who can put the puck in the net.

 

[Kyle Doobas*]

About time this whole meritocracy thing finally kicked in.

 

[ponder]

Definitely the right move. Curious to see who plays with Bozak/Kessel, if they want to preserve the JVR/Grabo/Kulemin line then probably MacArthur?

Mac - Bozak - Kessel
JVR - Grabo - Kulemin
Komarov - Kadri - Frattin
Orr - McClement - Brown

I like the lineup, I think that's probably the best we can do with Lupul out.

This is what I'm expecting
