I'm going to update the title to just Gus for now since Skinner and Greenway both practiced today.

 

[ValJamesDuex]

per Don, Girgs is very very close but with 3 days of no practices it is not good timing for him to play tonight vs Boston

 

[Chainshot]

Everyone is back.

 

[Chainshot]

...except the coaching staff.

 

[Taro Tsujimoto]

Welp, having no injuries was fun while it lasted.

 

[KeyserSoze81]

Eric Robinson probably draws back into the lineup. Girgensons + Robinson should be fun together.

..oh no, whatever will we do..

Seriously, hope KO is ok, but.. do we maybe wanna see the lineup without him?

 

[ValJamesDuex]

[Jim Bob]

Adding Samuelsson since he hasn't returned.

 

[Dingo44]

Cozens and Sammy are now both day to day, as is Skinner.

 

[Dingo44]

Add EJ and I guess Joki as well.

 

[Chainshot]

Sammy not at practice, EJ has returned per Herringbone.

 

[Nikolajs Sillers]

Sammy not at practice, EJ has returned per Herringbone.

So what with Zemgus?

 

[Chainshot]

So what with Zemgus?

Not practicing either.

 

[Faceboner]

Sammy not at practice, EJ has returned per Herringbone.

I like Sammy, I like him a lot especially when he isn't recovering from an injury, is he gonna play enough games at an effective level to be worth his contract? He is a great defender but part of the allure to that extension was that he could play top pair with dahlin logging steady minutes freeing up his game, do we still see that as a possibility or is he going to be a 4 mil no.5?

If he stopped blocking shots then he might not miss so many games, but kinda counterintuitive in trying to win games

I know that's part of his game but does that mean never playing a full season apart of it?

It means he needs more pads, to better position himself to not take piss missiles off himself and to pick his spots.
