Okay. I think Staal Staal Semin- line is the best option right now. Eric is playing poorly and the best chance to get him going is to play with his brother. Maybe that could light him up. And Jordan too if that's possible offensively? Another chance could be to trade Staal(s) at some point and we're not there yet. We could also put Jiri back to the top line with Eric and Semin and just wait. How long can we wait? No one else won't make a difference..
Defense is ok. We miss Pitkänen. Harrison's been a bit out of place lately.
Then to the forwards again: we've too many solid defensively and nothing else kinda guys on our roster right now.
Skinner, Lindholm, Gerbe, Dvorak - they're ok if just healthy. Dwyer's the best defensively but please Dwyer to the 4th line. Now. And a lot of PK time.
With Ruutu. Well we must wait for a while. But if nothing changes. Well that's....
Malhotra.. Give 5-10 games. At least he seems to win the faceoffs. Use him effectively.
And then get rid of Bowman, Nash, Westgarth, Sutter. Right now.
I don't who'll replace them. Maybe Terry, Boychuk, whoever that scores or makes plays and has at least ok defensive skills. Whoever. That is not useless.
Tlusty - Staal - Semin
Gerbe - J. Staal - new, Terry or Boychuk?
Skinner/new - Ruutu - Lindholm
Dvorak /new, LAROSE??? - Malhotra - Dwyer
