Barry Trotz says Jordan Eberle will travel with the team to Montreal, reiterates day to day. Noncommittal about who steps in for Filppula. Spoke with Kuhnhackl, at 3rd line center today, said played some there in juniors. #Isles

Why kuhnackl at center? The guy can’t even play wing😂
Jesus swallow your pride or whatever it is call up ho Sang and MDC move Bailey to center in the interim or Beau. Just seems nuts to me.

Wait wasn’t beau a center and we switched him to the wing??

Yep. And straight out of Staple's Athletic Q&A going on right now:

Yeah, I'm not sure how much I'm loving, "Well, I talked to the guy who can't hold down a spot in this lineup at wing, and he said 8 years ago he played a little bit of center against 16 year olds, so we're gonna pin our playoff hopes on that."

To be perfectly honest, though, I'm not so sure Bailey, with the way he's been playing, is a slam dunk here, either. It's a problem we talked about all season...if a center goes down, there's no one decent to step in. edit -- the silver lining I guess is it's Filppula here and not Barzal or Nelson...or even Cizikas.

Absolutely and I’m in no way saying it’s a slam dunk but I’m having a real hard time seeing how kuhnackl is the best possible option at center😂

Why would anyone read the staple q and a when this is out there

Andrew Ladd on losing Valtteri Filppula for 4 weeks (about 2 1/2 left in regular season): "I think definitely he’s been great for us all year. ... It’s going to be a hole for us to fill, but I think we’ve dealt with injuries pretty well this season.” #Isles


Uh...Ladd...the team's dealt with injuries to you pretty well this season because that was a net-gain for the team...

I'm thinking we may need another "net-gain for the team" pretty soon.

I’m no fan of this guy he’s like herpes but I would much rather him centering that third line than kuhnackl. Not sure what the hesitation is to call up MDC or even Ho Sang at this point? Andrew Ladd is on our first line.

Dal Colle is already up with the team; he's just been scratched.

Bode Wilde voted as possessing the best shot in the Eastern Conference in this year's OHL Coach's Poll. That includes forwards.

Also finished 2nd in "Best Offensive Defenseman" to Leafs overager prospect Mac Hollowell, but ahead of 10th overall pick last year Evan Bouchard.

Gotcha yeah I see him now on the 2nd line in practice forgot he has just been sitting out. I’m assuming kuhnackl was centering that line just for the practice and Fritz will most likely play there. Or maybe not.

I think because he was conceived on a Monday, born on a Thursday and is left nut is bigger and left handed he’s good to go.

Don’t know if I’m correct but Chiefs can confirm.
