Ooh, now this is exciting.

 

[hohosaregood]

Ooh good for him! Hope he gets a chance to play though.

If SJ puts Tarasov on the 4th line he's going to fail. He really needs to be with offensive minded players, otherwise he'll be out of his element.

I know Melker has been doing ok on the first line, but how about with the Joe's?

 

[weastern bias]

Cool

Hopefully they'll play him in TK's spot on Hertl's wing

 

[sr228]

This is an awesome reward for his stellar play as of late.

He won't play tonight but there's a small chance if TK is out for a while he may get into a game.

I think Tarasov would do fine on the '3rd' line with Sheppard at C and Hertl on the other W but I agree, skating him with any combo of Desi/McGinn/Scott would just be setting him up for failure.

I could see that happening. There's not really a lot of options for that spot other than McGinn or Goodrow and even they aren't great options, they just work okay there.

 

[The Great John Scott]

My guess is he'll get into the lineup just as soon as John Scott gets suspended again for concussing/name-calling Tim Jackman.

Scott does seem go stupid pretty often when it comes to Jackman.

 

[Bowie22]

Hopefully they pair him with decent line mates, if he does even get a chance to play.

 

[fasterthanlight]

Wow, that's surprising for someone who doesn't really watch Worcester.

 

[DonskoiDonscored]

Can't wait to watch him on the 4th line skating with thugs or sitting in the press box!

 

[Zeroz]

Hope he at least plays.

If this is true, the end result should be, he fails.

This is interesting. Tuesday, Kurz quoted McLellan on Hertl: "Based on our injuries now and the way we move people around, he’ll play the wing for a couple games again..."

Then Wednesday, TMac says Kennedy is injured. Tarasov called up.

I'm assuming Hertl goes back to center, but the whole "he'll play the wing again" made me rage. Hertl was doing fine at center and they blew his 4-day break apart to get him AHL time at center. Then TMac plays Rubik's cube because... he's bored?

Maddening. But oddly, thank you Kennedy for forcing TMac to do the right thing.

TK getting injured isn't going to move Hertl back to center. They like Sheppard at C so until they get healthy enough to go with 4 good likes Hertl is likely to stay at W.

Fascinating. Frustrating, but fascinating.

I hope Tarasov skates circles around someone. Anyone.

 

[hohosaregood]

I think they might have Hertl and Sheppard switch around during games. I'm pretty sure I saw Hertl take some draws last game, meaning I thought he was the first one on the draw.

Looks like Tarasov won’t be playing tonight, judging from morning skate here #SJSharks

I just hope he get to actually play.

 

[Lebanezer]

With Jackman not playing tonight I hope Tarasov gets to play. Scott can sit and goodrow can slide to the 4th line.

I don't see that happening.

Smart move by the Ducks to go with a skilled 4th line vs what's likely to be a pretty bad 4th line. I'm surprised they don't do this all the time, they have the skaters for it.

Scott must be needed to chip the puck 5 times and change.
