If you guys want a team that plays tough, sometimes penalties will happen. Taking White out would be the dumbest move and completely contradict our entire change in philosophy. You'll be telling Prust, Moen and Armstrong to tone it down. Our group has gelled together because of how these guys have stood up for one another. Those of you saying White should be benched should give their heads a shake.
Pacioretty - Plekanec - Cole
Bourque - Eller - Gionta
Prust - Galchenyuk - Gallagher
Moen - White - Armstrong
If you're willing to bench Armstrong, Gallagher and Eller, you should be able to bench our pseudo number-one center who hasn't produced in the first three games to try Galchenyuk at center with a bigger group down the middle. We only have 4 games to test him out. We should try it if we're planning on doing this whole rotation thing.

Diaz was very good but Weber had solid success too. He was the leading defenseman scorer on his club. In fact, he had more points than most forwards. He put up 21 points in 32 games.

You probably don't remember since you only joined last August..
But Cole was also sleeping in the first games last year. He'll wake up; the man is a hardworker. He'll catch the beat.
You won't wake him up by sitting him.
I'd put Eller in the gally line, wither at LW or C. Prust has been great, and he's a great team guy, he won't mind moving to the 4th. I agree White has taken some bad penalties, but he brings more than armstorng atm so I'd sit armstrong.
just to put right: Diaz was quiet better in stats with 32 7 23 30 +19 while Weber was 32 5 14 19 -2. Best Geneva D men was/is Goran Bezina (Swiss NT and Geneva captain.) Weber was second best D of team.

Bring back Bonk!
The Canadiens have benefited greatly from the added toughness of having Prust on the third line and having a pure energy and defensively sound 4th line. I absolutely do not want a Gally-Gally-Eller third line. Eller is not soft, but he's not tough by any means, and those two kids are going to get pushed around.
It pains me to say this, but the only way this team is going to keep its identity while giving Eller some decent TOI is by sending down either one of the Gallys.
Completely disagree. He's been pretty good and far better than Cole.

I'd rather see Armstrong scratched than White. Not that he did anything wrong but he's the ideal candidate as the odd man out if needs be imho. White is all heart , grit , energy and sandpaper. You don't remove a guy like that from a lineup and that even if he took some bad penalties.
He took the 5mins last game + misconduct and two 2mins in 2nd period last game. Both of which could of been costly had the Caps been in better shape on the PP. Not the end of the world but he certainly can't keep that pace every game.
Bah I can't a reason not to give the centre to Galchenyuk, besides taking away Prust will make them boys vulnerable and give Prust less ice-time.
Are you only looking at the scoresheets or actually watching games ? Look who's in front of the net disrupting the goalies on each goals his line scored...
DD hasn't been great, but to warrent him to sit in favor of Eller, I mean come on. What has Eller actually done to warrent this adoration ? Being tall and a first round draft choice ?
