Seems like some sort of 3rd line role could be in the cards for him when he starts for sure.

By then, with Martin and Clutterbuck gone, the fourth line could look something like maybe Durandeau-Cizikas-Fasching. Or replace Durandeau with a cheap 4th liner signed as a UFA.

Would be something to have a very different 4th line. Would be nice to have a different top 6 as well.

Looks more that Holmstrom is coming off IR and is back in. He was skating on Barzal's line yesterday at practice and Palmieri wasn't skating with any particular line.

Plus Raty was only averaging 8:25 TOI/GP. Hopefully he goes back to BPT and kills it after getting a taste.

Gotcha. Thought I read Palmieri was a full participant in practice. Man that guy just can’t get it together here. Ladd part deux.

I think he was a full participant, just wasn't taking line rushes with any particular line. Maybe that means nothing and he's in instead of Holmstrom, but either way it seems like Raty is heading back to BPT.

It’s a shame Palms had some nice playoff moments and could have had even more under different circumstances. Palms has been a non factor in the regular season.

Simon Holmstrom has been activated off of injured reserve, so safe to say he's in tonight vs. Dallas

Yep anytime he seems like he’s on the cusp of getting it going he’s injured again. Not looking like a good signing so far.

Good for him was thinking that may be a long term injury. Kid seems to be finding a role on the team though I fully expect him to be an extra when Palmieri is 100%. Always good to have some competition in the lineup.

I dunno. Wouldn’t surprise me to see Lane bench Bailey if both Palmieri and Holmstrom out play him.

Sign me up. I’ll add beau to that benching list. He has been pretty (frank)ing terrible for a while now. Bailey has actually been better then that dude lately

Has Beau gotten a shot on net since he scored in game 6 two years ago?

The percentage of scoring chances to total shots this team gives up has to be near the top of the league

Both him and Brock have been missing a lot lately.

He'd probably miss that shot too

That was a pretty deflection.

Indeed. iIt's such a rarity to see us do anything in front of the net. We need more of that

God just shoot the (frank)ing puck.

This guy seriously might have to sit a game. That could really end up costing them.

And now Clutter with the dumb penalty. The only shots we hit are the ones we fire into our own foot.

Pageau with a good opportunity to shoot, but opts to make a lousy pass instead.

Shot, miss....shot, miss,......shot..................miss
