Landeskog Replacement
I should have clarified that I want to see him take Jost's spot for a game or two.He gets to play 5v5, on the PP and on the PK. I think he's getting his chance.

T-Boobs has been mentoring him as his eventual successor for when Barrie gets traded.so is Mikko our goon now?

I wishWe should trade Barrie for William Nylander and sign him to a 7/7.
if entertaining the thought of Kamenev at 2C, why not throw jost on his wing and see if that sparks something? Jost-Kam-Kerfoot, and behind them, Wilson-Soda-Sven.
I wish Barrie was enough to grab Nylander :/
He's looked good in his role so far, and Jost hasn't, so why not give him a shot?Curious why people think Kam is going to be any more effective at 2C than Jost is.

For me its more of Kam having earned more 5 v 5 minutes while Jost has been gifted top PP minutes and 5 v 5 minutes and has done nothing with them. I don't know if he will be more effective but at this point its worth a look.Curious why people think Kam is going to be any more effective at 2C than Jost is.

And he's Russian, I love Russians. Best names.Jost has been given his chance and hasn't run with it. Kam should get a turn. Not to mention the size difference.
You can't teach size, Foppa Frossa!Curious why people think Kam is going to be any more effective at 2C than Jost is.

Notably someone called him Vladimir. It's Vladislav.
I really like his style of play. He seems to skate in the right places and be a force of poise while Calvert speeds and flops all over the place. Even better, when he loses a puck battle he's extremely dogged, often screws up the opposing rush or even gets the puck back.
On a slightly different note I really hope that 1st from Ottawa is top 10. I don't like how the two best assets by far came from Nashville. Ottawa must pay!

I could get behind this line up for sure. I'd probably swap Wilson and Dano though.Why not stack the second line?
Jost-Soderberg-Kerfoot
Kerfoot and Soderberg are our 4th and 5th best offensive forwards. Take some defensive pressure off Jost by moving him to the wing. He's still a decent possession forward and has more talent than the remaining players.
Let Kamenev and Compher center the 3rd and 4th lines with some combination of wingers.
Dano - Kamenev - Andrighetto
Wilson - Compher - Calvert
I don't think the way to get Barrie going is to limit him. You just have to keep throwing him out there in his usual situations and hope he gets going at some point here. I said after last game I don't think he has played a game to the level he's capable of yet this season and that certainly didn't change after today. Not sure what his deal is but he hasn't looked like himself.
