I think they keep him in the AHL for another season. He’s playing really well right now but still only has 64 AHL games of experience. An actual full season would help.

Carry on the team, but not on the ice. For Poehling to get a chance to play in the playoffs, 5-6 forwards needs to be injured...
Unless Ducharme is free to do whatever he wants in the playoff, but so far he's been constrained into pleasing his boss aka makes Bergevin's acquisitions and vets looks good.

Unless KK starts to show something, he might be one also looking to be in the lineup. Not sitting PD,NS or Evans as it is now. Staal has been improving and can smother and help pin in the opposition.

Laval plays tomorrow night and then has 6 more games over an 11 day period.

I do like how Staal has stepped up over the last 2 games cause I was getting worried about him. Not because he was lacking offense, but because I didn't see much compete level in the phyicality areas of the game. It's been a noticeable difference in the last 2 games.
And sitting KK is not a bad idea as well. Not cause he sucks but because he's been meh and if he sits a game, he gets time to reflect on things and where he needs to step up. If you can do it to Romanov as a 21 year old, we can do it to KK as a 20 year old.

KK has confided that he feels tired. So yeah, rest might be good.

Yeah, that 4th line could be Staal Evans Perry or Evans Staal Perry.
So far, I've liked Lehkonen-Staal-Perry, Drouin-Staal-Perry, and Frolik-Staal-perry at the offensive end. But haven't kept track of their +/- , how they've done at the defensive end.

I'd be tired too if I wielded around that Giant Redwood of a stick that he has.
Three of those four are done for the season. I guess they are allowed on taxi squad?! What a loophole.

Imagine in the old days when Richer had that long pole. Made of real wood! No wonder he had pipes!

If only KK could shoot like him. Remember Richer ripping it from inside the blue line and just beating the goalie?
Crap. Hopefully Laval keeps rolling. They're missing a lot of offense all of a sudden.

Yup. But the good news is that they've shown that they can still get the job done when they were missing key players before. They still got Poehling, Weal, Veilleux, Ylonen, and Vejdemo who play key roles and contribute offensively. Also good news is that aside from Fleury, they still have their regular D-corps.
