Thought he was probably hurt since he was playing his role and i guess met the coaching staff's expectations (which was just going out there for 5 minutes a game and hit as often as possible while trying to not allow the other team to score too many goals).

Would honestly prefer if we played our 4th line a bit more with a line-up similar to what we have now (i.e. a bit more skill rather than "enforcer"). Maybe the line could actually chip in offensively now without Sestito in the line-up then he'll actually become a healthy scratch.

Of course Torts way of playing top players top minutes might work out better for our top players (can't be much worst than first round exit) so who knows if Torts has any plans to use the 4th line much even if they start scoring...

Hopefully they start playing the 4th line more. Subbing Welsh in there for Tostito should help.

Didn't know Sestito was hurt. That's an odd one. Could have used him in this Bruins game, but oh well.

Dalpe has been playing pretty well with Wiese lately.

I see Schroeder was rocking a cane in the ugly Christmas sweater pictures, damn. Guess he's still a ways away.

It hurts the lineup a lot with Stanton out, he's a damn solid defensemen. It's Corrado time.

I know its going to be a meltdown on here but torts said they will probably use alberts.

Im guessing since its a week break during christmas do they just try to ride our top 4 mainly these next 3 games, and hope stanton can return after xmas? Surely we wont see alberts/weber pairing after pre season.

I hope we don't either.

And I suspect Torts feels the same. If Stanton goes on IR, then i really could see Corrado called up.
