I don't have issue with Plek as a player it's his new contract that's the problem. He's not a $6m player.
Not a big fan of that lineup. Yes, it's a young man's game now but we have to sign or trade for a top 6 vet winger. This team has to win NOW. Price is already 28 and PK is 26. I don't want to see them waste their prime years or wait another 3-5 years to develop the young guys.
Also, im still not sold on Carr, Hudon, McCarron (who should stay as a 4th liner) and obviously, DD has to go. Ghetto should also be Eller's RW.
Well looks like Galchenyuk will be back on the wing next game.
I'm all for getting a top 6 winger. I just don't know how we're going to do it. Every team wants one and none are available. Ghetto, Hudon, McCarron, and Carr may be close. They should definitely be playing in the top six every game until the end of the year. But Therrien took Hudon off the Pleks line instead of Byron, and put Mitchell on it. Ridiculous.

Like McCarron, Hudon looks a lot better on this call-up then the last one. He had chances and was noticeable on his shifts, especially after he was taken away from Pleks & Byron.
None being available is MB mentality and not reality. A good GM finds ways to get what the team needs.
Mitchell can play with Plek go figure...

I hate this Pleks Byron Hudon line.
Byron needs to be taken off of that line. He brings no offense and there are already two small guys on it. Put McCarron on that line.
