The issue is Wheeler right now

I would rather have any of Vesey, Brodz, Cuylle or Othmann in that spot, even if they are playing out of position. 1st choice is Vesey. Slam dunk putting him up there, he been one of if not the best forwards regarding system play

That Othmann cheese key photo LMAO

Great to see Othmann get a look. This could be only better if Edstrom were to replace Johnny "Kyle Connor McDavid" Brodzinski.

If Shesty is playing he will definitely get beat glove side
And five-hole ... on the same shot.

Wheeler had a bad last game but the last few weeks he has actually started to find where he needs to go on the ice with that line.

🤷‍♂️

So after Carolina doing to us, what we had just done to Tampa.......let me ask.....
Are going to get Bedarded tonight? I mean, Bombarded?
You don't wanna be the team playing the Rangers after a loss, this year anyway.

We haven't been playing very well, even in our wins (for the most part).
Just don't allow Bedard pull a Hughes on us. Be ready. Nothing he would like more, than to singlehandedly beat a fellow Orig6 team.

One of Bonino or Goodrow ends up centering the line and I'm not thrilled with either of them, so it is what it is.

I would love to just put Cuylle, Othmann, and Vesey together but that doesn't make sense.
Why wouldn't it? It's better than throwing shit at the wall and hoping it sticks. If it doesn't, then you have 2 messes to clean. Trust me I know, I'm raising 3 puppies.

Kakko supposedly skated with the team in a red jersey today. Hope that bodes well for a return shortly

I agree that he's been better, a lot better. I also think that there should be someone with more speed, or maybe even just more quickness on that line though. In a perfect world, Wheeler is on our 4th line and laf, othmann and Kakko are our top 6 wingers

Who'd ever thunk it that we would be clamouring for KK and all of his high powered offense to get back in a hurry.
Kakko for all his missed opportunities on offense still has young legs and a willingness to retrieve pucks, something we need.
