Was it last game plDougie had to go to the room for a bit?
Yes, Dougie had to go to the room when we were in Ottawa. Must have borrowed Pastrnak's masseuse, because he did come back to play a few shifts in that game. I paused and rewound that about 2 or 3 times to try and see what hit/hurt him, and couldn't see what went on.
I don't think it's Dougie - I know a LOT of Bs got banged up last night, but IIRC they were mostly forwards. Kelly or Paille (forget which) and Campbell got pretty dinged. But that's no reason to call up a defenseman, unless you're doing something like experimenting with 11F/7D.
Maybe bench Chara for that Stamkos brain fart? I mean, he IS the captain...but his minutes have been (appropriately) reduced, and he's been slowing down. I honestly don't think that's what it is - just trying to figure out who it would be to sit, and I can't come up with another defenseman.
