Polak thrives because he's a tough d man who can skate really well. Hopefully this doesn't take that away from him

Zaitsev should be back by Game 4 the latest. Otherwise, we run with Marincin and Marchenko. No way Dermott is getting his first game in the NHL in the middle of a heated playoff race. He's good, but he's human.
We've got to have faith in four solid bottom pairing guys to play in our top 6 and hope Rielly and Gardiner continue to step up with big games.
Can't we call someone up from the Marlies ?
Who was that guy who had an absolute meltdown when we signed him again?
For the playoffs and since babs said the focus is not on development in thw playoffs, I would assume olesky or Campbell. Dermott is a rookie and though I love the kid I would rather he play games in the Calder cup than sit in a pressbox with the leafs.Who gets called up from the Marlies? Gotta assume it's Dermott right?
Hunwick-Rielly
Gardiner-Carrick/Marchenko
Dermott-Marchenko/Marincin
I don't think Nielsen plays a safe enough game to be thrown to the wolves against Washington's forecheck even if it's for 12 minutes a game. Maybe one of Holl/Campbell/Valiev?
If Zaitsev is not ready for game three, I am ok with Leivo filling in on the third pair. He has been filling a position on D in the recent practices.
I'm not. Marchenko will should slot in and will be better on D than leivo.
It was a joke. If Babs won't play Leivo as a forward, he certainly won't as a D.
