Damn injury bug just won't leave us alone. I guess we find out if JT can play center? Or Lindberg moves up to 3C and Pirri plays 4C? Or Nieves comes up?
Puempel will slide in.
Miller plays center for sure, think Vesey slides up to third line, Puempel in for on the 4th line
IMO, we will move Oscar to 3rd line C and play Pirri @ 4th line C...but we'll see...
wonder if we'll see Boo get another shot.
That's not what AV did in-game though, which I think should give a pretty good indication of what his plans are.IMO, we will move Oscar to 3rd line C and play Pirri @ 4th line C...but we'll see...

I'd rather call Hrivik up than keep playing Lindberg.
I like Lindberg, and generally defend him...but the "double-hip surgery/no pre-season" reasoning is used up at this point. It's getting late in the season. If he continues to play like he did yesterday, I agree that Hrivik would be an improvement. At least Hrivik helps drive possession...Lindberg doesn't.
I defended Lindberg too, but the skating isn't the issue now. It's the poor play all over the ice, whether it be bad reads, poor passes, or stupid damn penalties. Hrivik at least can play center at the NHL level and win board battles and establish a cycle.

That number would be 10 games, and only if he were 18 or 19.Correct me if I'm wrong, he gets 5 freebies game exposure that do not charge on year 1 ELC. Believe he only played the 1 game earlier.
4 more games would be good experience for him and help out team with a breather on minutes.

Hrivik brought nothing as well, but at least he didn't take penalties.
Pump should be in before both of those 2 players.
