Only on this team would an AHL call up be immediately promoted to the first line...
f***ing joke TMAC. You should be ashamed of yourself

RNH - McDavid - Strome
Slepyshev - Draisaitl - Puljujarvi
Lucic - Khaira - Kassian
Gives McD and Drai some real wingers and puts Lucic in a place to succeed.
PLEASE TODD!
Todd liked Aberg so little...and likes our other wings so little, he calls up Rattie and right to McDavids line he goes.
Drai getting dropped down the lineup is kind of weird. He had a bad game, get immediately third lined. Lucic hasn't had a good game in months, still gets gravy top 6 lines. I don't forking get it.
It's strange I always thought you'd have to be a very good coach to make it to the NHL, but throughout almost the whole year I've felt the line suggestions made by the fans make so much more sense than the ones made by TM.
It shouldn't be that difficult to give McD and Drai suitable (as suitable as they get) wingers, put Puljujarvi to a place to succeed and to gain confidence, and then organize the rest to take some pressure off from Lucic and to use the rest according to their strengths.
No excuse why you wouldnt give Puljujarvi prime offensive minutes in these meaningless games.
I would give him more ice time than McDavid.
As for Rattie on top line.. he could just be sub'ing in for Aberg at practice and would not play tonight. Not going to bash TMac for that just yet.
Im fine with trying some weird combos to finish the season
I remember last year we strolled into Florida, they were a hot team, 5 straight wins and looking impressive in each one before we defeated them and more or less sent their season off the rails.
Speaking of Aberg, McLellan said in a brief comment when asked about Aberg that he "missed practice today, and will not play tomorrow"...make of that what you will.
I wonder if he was late for practice or something else? Todd didn't say anything about him being sick or injured.
This looks hilarious. lol.
McLellan's vagueness, combined with Stauffer saying shortly after on his show "I would suggest to you that this is a missed opportunity for Pontus Aberg", that Aberg screwed up somehow.
Hopefully Florida wins + McPoints
Don't want the Devils to make the playoffs. I've had enough of their fans gloating about how they won the trade, how easy it is to fleece Chia, etc. (when initially they were saying it was an equal trade and that they wish us the best blah blah blah)

They're not but that doesn't mean they should join in on kicking us while we're down. I see it a lot on reddit (I don't check the mains here)Are they wrong?
Couldn't care less about the Devil's but I really want Hallsy to taste playoff hockey so I'm rooting for them.
Devil's fans aren't even that bad they all love Larsson, it's more other fanbase$ bashing us
