actually, firing the coach is the next move. but i have zero problem calling up strome, mayfield and lee...not because I hold out significant hope that they are our salvation, but more so i never have to see regin, pmb and carkner again.
Bob Mackenzie talked yesterday, said Isles have too many problems for it all to come on coach. There gonna make a move before they fire Caps.
Defense and Goaltending are our major concerns but so is secondary scoring. Strome's been playing C in BP. Separate lines a bit to create depth and try to create a balanced scoring threat from within. A trade may be coming but im not waiting any longer. Its after Thanksgiving. Strome's the only guy from the top of his draft class to not be in the NHL. Kid deserves a shot like Nelson does. Compton made a good point about how Strome should be 2nd line C for defensive reasons so this is what i would do.
Vanek-JT-Nelson
Bailey-Strome-Okposo
Grabner-Nielsen-Clutter
Martin-Cizikas-McDonald
Bouchard 1st to come in/Boulton and Regin should never suit up again
On Defense. Until we get healthy or a move is made. Just don't play Martinek and Carkner for the same game. If that happens your guaranteeing a lost almost.
