Holy crow, if everyone's healthy the matchups for the Jets are ridiculous. Little's line could literally function as the 4th line, or PoMo could toss out CSW or ESL against opposing 4th lines.

Well, that depends. How long will the Stars keep Lehtonen in before they throw Bishop in?
But seriously, Laine has been feasting on Niemi and Lehtonen. Former is no longer with the Stars, so Lehtonen will have to sacrifice himself.

Watching the jets practice at the ice plex everyone seems to be having fun no yellow non contact shief Practicing on the pp thinking he's back Sunday if they haven't mentioned anything yet. Dallas will be practicing at 1pm might stick around and watch
Yup. I like that, too. PLA and CLR spreads the size and speed out a bit more, but a CLA line is a big and miserable line to play against.

I'd like to see Little stay with Wheeler and Connor. Obviously Scheifele is great with those two but Little looked the best he has in a hot minute with them, and they played well off Little as well. I think Schiefele with Perreault and Armia has some real potential (or Roslovic, pushing Army down with Copp and Lowry.)

Could be any combination and I wouldn't hate it. There's not one player in that lineup that if they moved up a line i'd be shaking my head in disgust like previously

Player audio: Lowry & Scheifele.
Coach Maurice scrum topics: Update on Scheifele/Lowry. Do they have the same representative that Jacob Trouba did? Was the last battle a test for Lowry/Scheifele? Would there be any apprehension in putting them both back in tomorrow? Updates on Enstrom/Kulikov. Is Enstrom an option tomorrow? On having to remove players from the lineup? On minutes played. What kind of urgency is he trying to create with his team? Is there any thought about resting guys before the playoffs? On Kulikov's disappointment. Any updates on Mason/Hutchinson? On Comrie's mindset.

Except maybe Tanev. I would not like him to be on our third line over Perrault or Armia.
Kulikov to undergo surgery; out 8 weeks - Article - TSN
Shame. Hopefully we will go on a deep run and he will be able to make it for Conference finals....

To bad apart from last few games he played he had a bounce back season, good thing that Chairot has become a semi use full player so the drop off is not as bad as it could of been

Not diggin the Myers-Morrow tandem. Way Myers has been playing lately he needs a Scott Neidermayer type to mitigate his yips.

Now 20% Chunkier
I'm all for introducing the Scheif, Lowery and Toby slowly. I would rather over protect them at this point. We've been playing well enough without them to give Dallas all they can handle. Make sure they are fully healed. If we lose a game or two because of it now, so be it. We need those guys at 100% plus going into the playoffs.
Yeah no need to rush them. We need everyone healthy if we want to make some noise this year. Make sure they are 110% before going in.

The upside of the injuries is how much guys like Roslo got to play and establish themselves. The byproduct of that is now as the forwards like Schief, Lowry, Tanev get healthy and with the addition of Stastny our great line options are endless.
Not sure if you feel what I feel but I think we have the makings of a scary good group if we can keep a bit healthy.
I have never understood "game time decisions" in long term injuries. Play them when they are 100%. You should know that before the day of a game. If they are even doubtful, then they aren't ready. Certainly it's different in a short term or when its playoffs, but at this time of the year....

Maurice basically said Lowry and Scheifele are 100% now. If they feel the same tomorrow they probably play. He also said Toby is just dealing with pain management.

Exactly why he needs to be on the third pairing now. Hopefully he manages it much better now(which I expect).
