Injury Report: Stephen Weiss

[WingedWheel1987]

Cleary practicing on the bottom six is worthless. Babcock will try to spark the top six and insert Cleary midway through the first period.

Real Gud Danny Boy!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[joe89]

Sounds like:

Z-d-bert
Tatar-helm-abby
Cleary-andy-alfie
Miller-glendenning-eaves

(Vomits)

See this is when keeping Nyquist down really becomes stupidity. This isn't asset management, it's poor management.

still weird that theres been no word on Franzen

Helene St. James @HeleneStJames
Johan Franzen out Saturday vs Tampa Bay, said possible for Tuesday. #RedWings

 

[WingedWheel1987]

That second line is hilariously bad.

 

[drw02]

Sounds like:

Z-d-bert
Tatar-helm-abby
Cleary-andy-alfie
Miller-glendenning-eaves

(Vomits)

Supposedly Babcock said Helm wasn't going to play 2C Saturday.

Z-D-Bert
Tats-Andy-Alfie
cleary-Glen-abby
Miller-Helm-22/eaves

maybe swap glen and helm

 

[Vladdy84]

That second line is hilariously bad.

Just wait till its

Cleary-Helm-Gator

Lol at the notion of Joker being 2nd line center... He's pretty questionable as a 3rd line C.

 

[Huddy*]

If Weiss is out, would anyone be against:

Z-D-Bert
Tatar-Andy-Alfie

this would be a fun line 2 watch

2 kids and a goat

 

[BinCookin]

That second line is hilariously bad.

There is no real solution here.

Tatar on wing on top 6… thats what we wanted.
As for Helm.. he is 3rd line centre moved up here. No we are not splitting up the line that ALMOST won us the game by itself yesterday.
Abby was not the right wing… it was Alfie.


THats 2/3 good.

What is your other solution… Ferraro or some other kid in GR. Andy?
Franzen could take it worst case, but he's out too.

No matter what, the entire team suffers.

Either way, more no points for cleary good…. Keep falling down that depth chart.

 

[Shoalzie]

If he's only out for a short time...why not split up Hank and Pavel?

 

[Bench]

Helm isn't a #2, but whatever, with Alfredsson and Tatar they've got a fighting chance to score some goals. One of the better 2nd lines we've rolled out in recent memory.

 

[Bench]

If he's only out for a short time...why not split up Hank and Pavel?

Because they've been dominating. And it's not like they do it alone, the two are feeding off of one another like crazy. Datsyuk's move on that 3rd goal against Dallas was a gem, but that one-touch pass from Zetterberg was also a stroke of brilliance no other player on the team would have pulled off.

 

[mindfly]

So will Ouellet play on Saturday or is it just one of those precaution call-ups and he will end up being scratched?

 

[Shoalzie]

I can understand keeping that line together but they've got two top centers and three 3rd/4th line centers...you have to make the short term switch because they literally don't have a 2nd line without Weiss and Franzen.

Is Helm ready for 2nd line minutes? I haven't paid full attention to his minutes since he's come back.

You also have to take into consideration that Babcock is going to match up power vs power. Stamkos and St. Louis will see 13 and 40 every shift if Babcock gets his way.

The 2nd like center needs to handle the Filppula unit.

I agree if its only gonna be for 1 game why not.

Tatar - Dats - Bert
Abby - Zed - Alfie
Miller - Helm - Sammy
Glendenening - Joker - Eaves

If Tatar got the ice time with those linemates. He have at least 5 or 6 pts easily in 7 games.

I was thinking it was werid on they never said why though, I know people here were speculation anxiety problems and that could be why

I think the answer is more ice time to jump start him. and add in the pp time he got

 

[Laser Rayzor]

I think he has to play with Smitty and Big E on IR and Almqvist sent down, without him they only have 5 d (Kronner, DD, KFQ, Kindl, Lashoff)

I'm old fashioned, but I prefer 1 line that can score for sure rather than 2 iffy lines.

But Dolph here posted a tweet that says Helm won't be the #2 center, so I guess I'm not sure what is being planned.

 

[Winger98]

Datsyuk's move on that 3rd goal against Dallas was a gem, but that one-touch pass from Zetterberg was also a stroke of brilliance no other player on the team would have pulled off.

The problem for me is calling up Glendening. Call up Sheahan or Jarnkrok instead, throw them onto the "second" line, and hope for the best. If they can't handle it, we still have Helm and Andersson in the lineup and we re-distribute ice time and juggle the lines as they go. I'd rather roll the dice with them than Andy on a scoring line roll.

Cool, I'll watch this game just because of this then.

Earlier today I stated my indifference with him in the bottom 6, so you can gather how I'm feeling about him getting 2nd line minutes.

I though Sheahan, big good chance he's "heavy" on the puck and let him have a shot
