Nolan Patrick will be 2C for the Flyers and is really coming on lately.

Oskar Lindblom has been recently called up and is on Patricks LW with Voracek on RW. He could be a big factor.

Robert Hagg will be in the lineup but he sucks.

Flyers fans are praying Travis Sanheim gets called up again to fix their horrendous bottom 4 D.

Dermott and Kapanen (technically he isn't, but he's become a regular in the lineup recently.)

What kind of jynx thread is this. Devils haven't made the playoffs yet, don't do this to us

yeah hagg has been playing 2nd pairing mins but getting eaten out there, bringing in someone else might help. Patrick is starting to pick it up with 7p in his last 14 gms will have to see on him.

Not Barzal

I'm really hoping we make it, because I think Iafallo is going to be an absolute menace.

 

[Rygu]

If NJ does make it, Hischier will be a pretty important part of their run. His two way style is what you need in the playoffs.

McAvoy Kapanen Tolvanen Sprong Lindblom

Eeli Tolvanen

Doubt he gets a big role. Popcorn duty for a couple of games and then some bottom 6 minutes with some PP time.

 

[maxbme]

Debrusk (2lw), McAvoy (1rd), Matt Grzelcyk (3ld), Danton Heinen (3lw) and Sean Kuraly (4c) will be playing big roles for the Bruins. If Ryan Donato signs in March like is rumored, I'd bet on him too.

 

[SotasicA]

Matt Murray is a pretty good one.

 

[wintersej]

McAvoy, Heinen, DeBrusk for Boston all with big roles. Gryzleck (rookie) and Holden (not) will be fighting over the #6 D spot and it probably will be matchup based (Gryz better at puck moving and skating, Holden not a smurf and better in the offensive zone, but doesn't have Gryz's defensive IQ)

For the Sharks we have Joakim Ryan and Tim Heed on defense.

At forward, we have Kevin Labanc (New York born and raised) and Timo Meier (passed over Barzal to pick him at the draft) that are sorta rookies.

Eeli Tolvanen

Slightly off topic, but I started to wonder that if Eeli is going to play in playoffs this season, is he still considered as a Rookie next season, or not?

Or does that maximum played games-limit (what it was?) for Rookie -status cover also playoff-games played before first "full" regular season?

I didn't know Tim Heed and Kevin Labanc were so handsome

 

[MardyBum]

Connor is currently with Scheifele, Roslovic is playing on the "second" line. So both are featured a lot 5v5. Besides that nada.

 

[pckstpr31]

Don't think anyone has mentioned Greenway yet, but I think he could have a decent impact.

 

[VoluntaryDom]

Sergachev. Also if the first game was any indication, Cirelli.

I believe he'd need to play 40 games including playoffs to end his rookie status, although I could be wrong. He'd burn a year off his ELC if he played 9 games or more.

Kempe is no slouch either. I bet he torches other teams' bottom six/bottom pairings.

 

[cgf]

Girard, Jost, Compher, Kerfoot, Kamenev, and maybe Greer, Toninato, Siemens or Lindholm if the Avs get in.

 

[Juxtaposer]

Joakim Ryan is here and ready to shutdown your second line [as best as humanly possible considering he plays with Brent Burns].
