Ha...beat you by a few seconds.

 

[Navin R Slavin]

Yes, but thanks to your comment, this is the one on top...

Yes, but thanks to your comment, this is the one on top...

I was trying to figure out how to delete mine as I thought someone said we can do that now, but I can't figure it out.

 

[AD Skinner]

Who's going to sit? Would they call him up just to be an extra?

 

[MinJaBen]

Ok, while you two dance around trying to figure out whose thread stays....why was he called up and who is not playing? Rod usually doesn’t sit guys when the team is winning.

My bet is Foegele is going to see the press box soon.

 

[MinJaBen]

Maybe Walmark is more injured then we thought?

 

[A Star is Burns]

Maybe Walmark is more injured then we thought?

This is what I was thinking. Throw Marty in the middle with Goat on the wing if that happens maybe

 

[Navin R Slavin]

Yeah. I'm guessing Wally is banged up for a couple of games.

 

[Canes]

Foegele hasn't been bad but I'd like to see more out of him. Hopefully recalling Gauthier lights a fire under him like it did with Fleury now that TVR looks to be coming back soon.

This is assuming it's not injury related with Wallmark or another player though.

 

[The Faulker 27]

GOAT is back!

 

[Tryamw]

The Gaut will pillage NY. (I have no clue)

 

[CanesFanBudMan]

Does he get 3 or 4 goals in his debut?

 

[Navin R Slavin]

Does he get 3 or 4 goals in his debut?

I think just the once would do.

 

[Roboturner913]

Wallmark's injury couldn't have been that bad because he did come back in the game. I'm guessing he will rest a couple games, Martinook slides into center and you have a Foegele/Martinook/Gauthier situation on the 4th line.

 

[dogbazinho]

Excited to see him play.

Potential reasons:
1.Back to back games on Friday/Saturday so Rod wants a fresh set of legs in the lineup for the second game.
2. As mentioned earlier, maybe somebody (Wallmark) is banged up.
3. Reward for Gauthier, keeping his morale up after a good camp.
4. RBA doesn’t like someone’s play and is sending a message.
4. Showcasing Goat for an upcoming trade.

I’d guess 1 or 2 and maybe a little bit of 3

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

McGinn or Foegele sitting?

 

[Unsustainable]

My guess is Foegele is sitting

 

[DaveG]

Yes, but thanks to your comment, this is the one on top...

it's also possible that he doesn't play. though i guess that #3 could include that possibility. we called up patrick brown like 8 times without playing him just to have an extra forward.

I think it’s a mix of Wallmark not being 100% and also the fact that Gauthier should have made the opening night roster over a guy like Foegele based on the camp he had. I tend to think it’s more likely Wallmark is experiencing some issues today from being pile-driven into the ice headfirst vs. RBA actually scratching a guy like Foegele for lackluster play.

Either way, great for Gauthier to finally get into NHL action...hopefully...

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

Gauthier’s tied with Joel Edmundson for last on the team in points.

 

[Stickpucker]

RBA probably sending a message about finishing games strong and peoples spots being vulnerable.

Waivers-exemption is a bitch, but he'll get a full-time spot next year, I'm pretty sure. Foegele's too good to be waived despite his slow start, and Necas just barely edged him out in camp.
