exactly, there's no spot for Jokinen. As much as i'd like to have him, we're good to go with a healthy lineup. I'd rather have him than Poni but it is what it is.
Zubrus-Loktionov-Kovalchuk
Elias-Zajac-Clarkson
Ponikarovsky-Henrique-D'Agostini
Carter-Gionta-Bernier
If Gionta is out for an extended period of time I wouldn't be surprised to see Josefson back. Poni and D'Agostini were our moves. Butler and Tedenby didn't work out so here we are. We remain 1 Parise shy of an elite group of forwards, but these guys can get the job done.
I'm just glad to see Zajac playing better.
on second thought.. Carter-Jokinen-Bernier? Jokinen-Josefson-Bernier? doesn't quite look like a 4th line anymore. I don't see a spot for him in the top 9 unless Poni moves down, which i wouldn't mind either. One of Carter or Gionta would be scratched.. which neither deserve to be.

If anybody gets scratched it would be one of Poni or D'Ags. Nobody from CBGB should be scratched, that line has too much chemistry.
