With the lack of offensive punch lately I worry every game. Donny has to do something soon. I see this team as a one and done IF they make the playoffs with our full roster. Just no reliable scoring beyond line 1.

Cave out for Smith? Not sure if you want Backes, Nordstrom or Smith taking draws all night? I think a change is needed but the 4th line has played two good games. I would stick with them.

Cave has regressed a bit. Maybe a night upstairs would help. I like his potential as a versatile 3rd line center.

A 3rd line center ?, maybe at the AHL level. We can do far better then him even as a 4th liner.

Can't disagree with this, and yeah I'd rather have Backes taking draws all night. He is actually pretty good at them, you know, given he was top 6 center for St. Louis for a decade.

I tried to edit that and failed. He was a late inclusion. The other guys I thought Cassidy might not want at the dot. Backes on the other hand I think Cassidy is still generally reluctant to play at center.

Got ya, and yeah I don't think he's in at center, but he still does take a lot of draws: he can shift over to wing after the faceoff is what I have seen happening.
