luckylager Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 OP: Not sure whether I voted on who I'd send down or who MG will send down? I'd send Ebbett packing, he's been given tonnes of opportunity in Van and just hasn't made the best of it. Sadly, I'm pretty sure they'll send down the kid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bananas Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Ebbett. He has no place on this team whatsoever. He should be in the AHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ilya Mikheyev Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Unfortunately for Ebbett he played himself out of a roster spot early in the season. If he gets sent down and makes it (likely) there's no re-entry waivers, so that's great. If he does get claimed, it really should not be hard to replace him. On the W either Sweatt or Gordon can replace him, and if there's an injury at center Burrows is proving he can hold the fort.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ilya Mikheyev Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Sedin - Sedin - Kassian Higgins - Kesler - Burrows Raymond - Schroeder - Hansen Malhotra - Lapierre - Weise Volpatti Done. When Booth AND Kesler are both back, it will depend on the situation then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N4ZZY Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Doesn't make sense to have Ebbett on the roster, when you have a developing, and improving Schroeder. When Kes returns, Schroeder's going to be moved to the third line center position. Raymond, and Hansen may join him there on that third line, cause I don't see Hansen playing fourth line minutes. He's too useful to be placed there. The lines when Kes gets back: Sedin - Sedin - Burr Higgins - Kesler - Kassian Hansen - Schroeder - Raymond Malhotra - Lappy - Weise That's a pretty solid line up, I'd say.

Fuzzysheep Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Obviously Malhotra would slot in against less physical opposition. The reason I like Weise in that spot is it gives us a good energy line as the 4th line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuzzysheep Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 my lines: Sedin - Sedin - Burr Booth - Kes - Kass Hansen - Schroeder - Mayray Malhotra - Lapierre - Higgins OR: Sedin - Sedin - Burr Booth - Kes - Kass Hansen -Lapierre - Mayray/Higgins Malhotra centring 2 of Higgins/Weise/Volpatti/Pinizzotto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berto91 Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 I think that without either Volpatti or Wiese on the 4th, we may lack quite a bit of toughness. From what I've seen so far this year we've had a good equal ratio between lines of their jobs. I wouldn't have thought a Higgins - Manny - Lappy line, would have a much grit to it in comparison to our current 4th line.. Just an opinion though. I know Higgins hasn't played that great since the start of the season (or is it just me?) but I don't see him as 4th liner doing much good to get him out of his rut. Also, putting Kas down on the second line is going to prove a couple of things: Is he is as good as he has been by his own work, or if it is the twins making him better? I personally think it is his own doing. Though being shunted down to the 2nd line may make him look less skillful if he's with less quality players that can help create chances or trying to merge with a different tactic on the 2nd line. It'll be nice to see Burrows back with the twins IF this is the case, I still think that that's the best combination, but I do love the grit Kas adds to the top-line. There are just many many variations that this team can use at the moment.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goal:thecup Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 I agree it will probably be Ebbet and I am ok with that but Volpatti has been taking one unnecessary penalty per game for at least the last three games. I worry that he will be demoted if he doesn't stop this. We need his hitting and toughness and if he has to clear waivers we may well lose him. Maybe AV will just sit him if the problem continues and hope he learns from that. In Volpatti's defense, some of his penalties have been pretty soft calls.

Peaches Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Ebbett is the obvious choice. He's been completely useless in the games he has played Sedin-Sedin-Kassian Booth-Kesler-Burrows Raymond/Higgins-Schroeder-Hansen Higgins/Raymond-Lapierre-Malhotra Malhotra/Weise Or something like that.

Creed_17 Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 With either Higgins or Raymond being bumped down to the 4th line eventually....I kind of get the feel that there could be a possible Raymond trade on the horizon. They aren't 4th liners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
