Pre-Game Talk: Week to Start Fresh (@NYR, @NJ, @BOS)

[Foppa Frossa]

Lindholm has been recalled from San Antonio ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Wasn't Nemeth "pinched" at one point, and in pain?

Nice. That means that Mironov should be the second in line almong D scratches to get into game action.

Actually makes plenty of sense to me. Got down to 22 and could bring up the extra D now.

 

[Cousin Eddie]

He was. But we were carrying just 22 skaters. Chances are this re-call is just to add another body.

 

[CoachBadkitten]

Yeah I don't think they ever really wanted Lindholm down there.

 

[Ararana]

If calling up Lindholm keeps Z out longer I'm going to loose it

I was about to ask, "Wasnt Lindholm on SA's roster yesterday? They added Colborne and Kostin".

 

[The Mars Volchenkov]

It's possible Nemeth's shoulder flared up. But if they called up Lindholm to keep Z out even longer...well...

I wouldn't be surprised to see Barbie and Miro scratched soon. Both were bad.

 

[Avs_19]

Assuming there’s no surprise injury after last night, this wouldn’t be bad.....

Zadorov-EJ
Nemeth-Barrie
Bigras-Lindholm

Barberio’s skating and puck moving ability will be missed but Lindholm would be an upgrade over both him and Mironov defensively.

Yes Please, I have a feeling we may see Big Russ sneak into the top pairing before long. I remember a few years ago they were really pushing that pairing and Johnson seemed to have a lot of positive things to say about it. If they found chemistry again that be great.

 

[Ararana]

I would be quite surprised to see Bednar pull Z from the club box to the top pairing. I wouldn't be surprised to see Bigras start with Johnson after the night he had last night.

 

[Cousin Eddie]

I'd rather Barbs get another chance and let Lindholm eat Nachos. If Z needs to "catch up" Lindholm should need to catch up as well.

With out luck we'll watch Lindholm and Z get scratched, Mironov plays and this place explodes.

 

[Foppa Frossa]

Lindholm paired with Zadorov, could be good or bad I guess?

 

[Avs_19]

I wouldn’t be opposed to seeing Bigras with Barrie but I think they should probably take it slow. Going straight to the top pair with EJ might be too much.

 

[Ararana]

Oh god... Mack is getting benched next

 

[The Mars Volchenkov]

Honestly would be an interesting pairing but if they're practicing together I'd imagine they're both out...which is dumb.

 

[dahrougem2]

Probably trying to explain his giveaways in his own zone last night lol.

 

[Foppa Frossa]

Z is playing tomorrow.

 

[CobraAcesS]

Z is playing tomorrow.

Yep

 

[Ceremony]

After seeing Yakupov in action I'd like to revise my prediction for the next two games. The Devils will be beaten so badly all trace of them is removed from history, while we get a lifetime's worth of gifs of Rask losing the head on Monday. Beautiful.

Not sure about that, Bernier is in net tomorrow.

 

[member 116861]

Our defensemen aren't that bad at all

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

[CharlesPuck]

I find it interesting that Bernier is starting tomorrow. The Avs dont have a heavy schedule, but I guess they want him rested for Boston back to back?
