Kane back to RW

[JOVE23]

Kruger will center line 2, per Zawaski. Line 1 will be Stalberg Toews Kane.

 

[chasman]

Why?

 

[supraman]

well that kinda shits all over me trying to trade Crosby and someone to BHP for Kane and Marchand

 

[howcho]

Maybe because the current lines have not worked well as of late. I am not sure that I like this so much either, not the new lline, but the constant juggling. This stuff should have been set a week into the season if not pre-season.



I expect a big effort on Friday.

 

[roshinaya]

Thinking about Q's decisions might break your mind. Will be interesting how Krüger will fair with the added minutes. He has improved so maybe they are giving him a carrot.

 

[R K]

I was going to post if you saw the lines in practice today you crack your shit.



25-19-88

10-16-81



Top two lines.



Lepisto shoud be in as well and Smith

They are not happy about Tuesday, as they shouldn't be. But it's becoming a broken record. Find some consistency and it starts with the COACH!

Thats exactly what they are doing.



Plus Kane is NOT a Center!

 

[LordKOTL]

I'm strangely comfortable with this...as long as there's time to gel.



Now, If Smith is in who sits? (please, be Bickell)

Then zip up your pants.

Considering this is being done because Kruger is ready for the number two slot then I think it is a good idea. I can't wait to see what he, Hoss, and Shooter do on Saturday night. It will be nice to see them live to evaluate his play away from the puck.



Anytime JT and Kaner are together good things happen, so no complaint there.

Does Q not like Lepisto? I think he is a waaaaaay better option than O'l-Daddy, empty-Monty, and Lumberjohn Scott.

 

[Ton]

I told yall Kruger would get a shot on the 2nd line before the deadline. TOLD YOU TOLD YOU TOLD YOU! NA NA NA BOO BOO.

 

[PatrickSharpRules]

Love Krugers play but really am questioning whether he's ready for this role. We'll see how long it lasts, something tells me this is no different than any other Q move and that any 2 goal deficit makes any chemistry void.

I think Montedor is better than all three, but I'd have Lepisto in before Scott and Odonnell no question.



Tony didnt you say that's where Bolland would be?



I'm also ok with the moves. Anything to get Kane back to RW where he belongs.

 

[Ton]

I'm not sure if he's ready either. But I think it's the right move, Mayers can anchor the 4th line just fine and Kruger was playing W on the 3rd line the past few games anyway. He needs to play C, I think he'll do OK in that role especially with Hossa and Sharp as his linemates but I'm hoping they give him a shot until the deadline, stop the musical lines and go with this line-up, I like it this way and this is actually similar to what I was asking for in training camp.

Yes! I've been waiting for this award, I will proudly display it until I obtain an "awshit" award.

Should take about 10 minutes.

Should take about 10 minutes.

Cmon give me more credit than that. 11 minutes.
