They are being called up. Bieksa and Sbisa have the mumps.

I think it's time higgy and weber take in a game or two from the press box, Yannick has been brutal in his own end...him and Stanton are not meshing well at all
- claygolf83

Burrows and Weber need to sit and really I haven't been all that impressed with Stanton this year. Sure last year he had moments and is good value but wow...he is lost out there like Weber.

WD is a rookie coach and there are going to be Gaffs like I said. Last night was a gaff.

Higgins on the fourth line makes about as much sense as Hansen on the first. Leave Vrbata and the Sedins alone and let them get their 5/5 play on track. The bottom nine can be juggled but since Higgy is so streaky he can't sit. No he is not a 2nd line winger really but leave him with Bonino and dump Burrows to the third or fourth line. Hansen is a bottom 6 guy so trying him in the top 6 is a waste IMO.

When Kassian draws back in maybe it's time he gets a look with Bonino?

Then we can rotate Burrows/Vey in or out of the press box. Hansen finally gains traction with Horvat and Dorsett then they get split up?

And I agree with most on here that Richardson/Matthias should stay together but we have options on that line as well.

I am not a proponent of trading Bieksa cause I think we need what he brings overall but man he is lost without Hammer out there to cover for him. Maybe it's time...

Really we have three starting Dmen that would be healthy scratches on most teams in Weber-Stanton-Spizza and we have a glorified fourth liner starting with the Sedins...

Guys (and Gals) We need help

Shink is gonna be fine.

Gaunce however may be the bust people are talking about.

Ahhh I'm not to worried about it, I just don't go as often as I'd like.

If by "have the mumps" you mean "are useless lumps", then yes!

I don't know when Kassian will be back, but I hope he shows some spark.

We all knew putting Sbisa and Bieksa was dangerous and unfortunately they were both playing a bit brain dead last night. We all want that pmd, but maybe we need a stay at home sort back there that doesn't feel the need to pinch all the time...

Tis the season for distraction.

Wednesday is the next game so hopefully they get some practices in and work on some things.

Today is super skills at the Rog . How ironic and sad would it be if Daniel wins the target shooting skill.

You know it's getting tough to attract players to Edmonton when even mumps won't go there.

If there's five other skaters on the ice he'll never hit anything he's aiming for!

We are in a tight spot unless we trade a bottom 9 player that brings us back a streaky unproven scorer.. or pick up a project off the wire.

Needs: top 6 scoring, defense - stability (lacking without Hamhuis) and pmd.

Really need to trade Burr if he isn't scoring. Fecker has to at least hit the net when he gets a shot and get a lucky bounce or offensive zone face off...

Really want to see Benning make a trade to bring it, but not sure if we can afford the price...

Bieksa's value may plumet by then

I love the commentators comment last night when he said" Sbisa's shot intentionally missing the net , or at least I hope it was intentional". He shot it 8 feet wide.

I dont expect a trade until TDL when we have more cap space if we are buyers or we can see if we are sellers. I hope we are sellers stockpiling picks.

How did I miss this last time?
