A bit early to drop Sharangovich down to the 4th line. I get it that he is having difficulty to find a role on this team and I get it that Rosie is much better than a 4C. But he should be developed as a C.
The line of Greer, Rosie. and Duehr have a high upside in my opinion (even if their minutes were low last game).
I'm not sure if Rosie is a good fit with Kadri, but we will see I guess.
Similarly moving Dube off of the top line might be a bit premature. They'll need more than a game to mesh. Remember Dube's speed was to be a weapon for the line. But, as we know, guys can play with Backs and Pickles with little risk. They'll still be shutdown guys that can score.
Mangi looked like the Mangi of old last game. Tenacious and energetic. A puck hunter and a shooter (more than Dube IMO). Huberdeau might like that.
Oesterle can skate, but I think the knock on him has been play in his own zone. Wilts under pressure. I missed the first two periods last game and didn't really see the goals against. I'm confident that Gilbert can play and can be the full time 6th D.
Pittsburgh had rolled over about 50% of their roster from last year. Huska's changes could very well be a response to that.
