What?

 

[Gilligans Island]

Might as well let Hertl get some playing time in during this break

 

[ScottyDont]

Hertl? Wtf?

EDIT: Ah, some people on Twitter pointed out its probably to give Hertl some games during the All-Star break. Phew.

 

[Juxtaposer]

So he can play over the ASG break. Chill folks.

I'll definitely make an effort to catch some Worcester games to see how Hertl can do against AHLers.

 

[Gilligans Island]

I'm sure he'll be back after the ASG.

Worcester has 2 games until then.

 

[Gilligans Island]

This tells me they want Hertl as a C long term.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

Toemash is definitely playing much better at center.

 

[The Great John Scott]

Smart move in my opinion, as Hertl is definitely playing on the up-and-up since moving to center. Wouldn't want him to get too rusty with only a few games under his belt.

 

[Pinkfloyd]

This was done to Vlasic quite a few years ago. Not unprecedented for this team.

 

[spintops]

Watch us get our hopes up and he goes down to play wing lol

 

[noexult]

Most likely something he wants himself too...play some during break at C

 

[Woo Hockey]

This should make for some great hockey this weekend. Perhaps another two wins to extend the streak.

 

[tahoesharksfan]

Do what helps but lets get him back in at C after the break!!

 

[dechire]

Makes sense to get Hertl some games but he'd better be back up next week

 

[Barrie22]

Heart and jaw dropped for a moment. Then remembered it is the all star break. Heart started back up again.

This should totally apply #19 and #12 hey ohhhhh!

 

[Hold the Pickles]

This should totally apply #19 and #12 hey ohhhhh!

The sad thing is, they just might clear.

 

[The Nemesis]

this thread:

Wasn't it obvious that Hertl wouldn't really be demoted to the minors?

 

[slocal]

Your refrain from using those PTA gifs this season has paid off tremendously, Nem

 

[Shark Finn]

Wow **** I got freaked out at first. Thanks for pointing out the ASG!

 

[sr228]

Really smart move to get Hertl a couple more games in before taking a little break considering how much time he's missed since coming to the NHL.

I'd guess he and Mueller will both be back in San Jose when the Sharks resume practicing next Tuesday. I would think Goodrow will as well but he's been struggling and they may give another a chance.

I usually enjoy watching Worcester play but I'm really looking forward to watching the games on Fri & Sat.

AIUI, the players so assigned are consulted (way in advance) and "persuaded" to accept the assignment during the ASG.

I had a very similar reaction at first,,,,,man, I dislike the all star break.
