As I wrote in the cap thread, it will be interesting if Zucker plays to see how the Zucker-McCann-EROD line looks. If they look good (I have doubts and question if Sullivan has any faith in McCann at C when all are healthy), then it opens up good personnel/line combo options for Hextall and Sullivan.
there’s a difference though in playing Zucker-McCann-Rod line as a second line with minutes and Ozone starts and playing them 10-12 minutes a night as a 3b line....I don’t think they e a particularly great defensive line like BART and Sully wouldn’t want to take away minutes from Sid and G offensively...so I don’t see that line, even if good, having the same impact when G and Kap return to run their own line
So Zucker tonight. The only question left is which of the big boys sits for Jank?
Just win.
Do you really have to ask? This the Mike Sullivan Pens we talking bout here...If Zucker’s skating looks like shit and he’s not playing well- do we a) scratch him? b) trade him? c) keep throwing minutes at him?
incidentally, I’d love to be wrong about him, but shit in one hand and wish in the other...

any significance on Geno on LTIR?
It SHOULD be none of them, but you and I both know perfectly well Drew sits for Zucker and your Czech lad sits for Jank.

Geno is more worrisome to me. Still off ice rehab suggests he isn't close to skating and TB isn't close but I think he can come back quicker than Malkin. Pens need TB back to at least have decent centers if Malkin is out for another couple of weeks.
he’s not going to be ready in less than 24 days from March 16...that’s not a good sign...trying to bank some money too in case of a trade
