In a few months Smith-Pageau-Paul would be a nice way to round out the lineup. (I know, I know, Paul won’t play over Pyatt, Paajarvi and McCormick, but I’d like to see it)

 

[BondraTime]

Earned call up, good on Batherson and management

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Best by a good margin in Belleville... Happy for him.. Play him and give him every opportunity... none of this play with P&P shit

 

[L'Aveuglette]

So he's Nick Paul's replacement?

More likely, he's Colin White's replacement in the top 6.

Well, this is what I was wondering(re:White), but considering we're not playing before Thursday, I was wondering what exactly drove this decision.

 

[Micklebot]

Nice. Hope this doesn't mean white is out long term

 

[aragorn]

Finally & they should bring up Chlapik as well to replace White if he can't go. Hopefully Smith will be ready to go for Thursday. Should be interesting where he plays but that should be a pretty good right side of Stone, Ryan & Batherson, that is if GB doesn't scratch him.

 

[starling]

Hope he's getting some pepper time.

Dzingel - Duchene - Batherson
Tkachuk - White - Stone
Boedker- Tierney- Ryan
Smith - Pageau - Paul

Was hoping he would come up after the Christmas and continue to grow in the AHL. I hope he is ready and won't be rattled like he was in the preseason.

Mann seems to think he is

Is P&P the new GSN?

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Nice. Hope this doesn't mean white is out long term

Would not surprise me.. but .if they are lookig for someone else in the top 6 where Paul played vs FLA.. Batherson is a better choice for that imo. I hope White is ok but it looks like a slash to the hand so ... not sure ., Terrible news for him if he's out weeks

 

[robsenz]

Well this is exciting, he better get some decent minutes

 

[Korpse]

More likely, he's Colin White's replacement in the top 6.

I’m not sure. If white was going to miss time I feel like they would call up a centre. If they run with the Tkachuk- White-Stone and Boedker-Tierney-ryan lines Batherson could fill the right side on th Duchene line.

Possible White is out and Smith moved in with Tkachuk and Stone if he's back.

 

[RAFI BOMB]

Much deserved call up. Hopefully he gets top six duty. I would have liked to see them keep Paul up as well. But I guess Boucher isn't willing to scratch pyatt and paajarvi.

Mouth watering......

It’s Bath time boys

[Nac Mac Feegle]

Now to see where they put him in the lineup. If you're going to bring up the kids, let them play some decent minutes.
