Boddy604 Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 So Zalewski is on his way back to Utica. In practice, lines are: Sedin-Sutter-Hansen Baertschi-Horvat-Vrbata Burrows-Vey-Etem Dorsett-Cracknell-Virtanen So McCann looks to be getting a day off. Prust is scratched for a 3rd consecutive game. And Sutter will man the top line. I think it's safe now for us to assume Prust isn't going to be here after the break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riffraff Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I like that fourth line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathew Barzal Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I like the way Vey's been playing recently, I hope Sutter is on a short leash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RakuRaku Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Got a feeling Zalewski will come back soon once we can resolve the Prust situation. Zalewski looks to be a much better fit for our 4th line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronic.Canuck Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Glad to hear Sutter's back! Take some of that pressure off Horvat and Vey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down by the River Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Its hard to figure lines out knowing that WD will want to keep McCann and Virtanen on separate lines. The way this would make most sense is to alternate the lineups depending on whether its McCann's game or Virtanen's. McCann: Sedin Sedin Sutter Baer Bo Vrbata Burrows McCann Hansen Dorsett Vey Etem Virtanen Sedin Sedin Hansen Baer Bo Vrbata Burrows Sutter Etem Dorsett Cracknell Virt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zalewski looks to be a much better fit for our 4th line. I hope he does. Once Henrik gets back someone else has to leave too though. So Prust just opens up a spot for Henrik. So many potential line combos I'm not even going to try and guess lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hatedkid666 Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I wish Mccann was in the lineup but I dont mind cracknell that much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tre Mac Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Hope Prust has played his final game as a nuck. Next on my chopping block : Vrbata. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heated Blue Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I'm really liking these lines. I just hope Sutter isn't too rusty and can get back to pre-injury form quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RakuRaku Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Prust needs to go due to the roster #... then it'll be between Zalewski and Cracknell. I don't mind keeping Very around as he's looking good with Etem and Burrows. Trading Vrbata and Weber away would definitely help too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there ain't someone calling for him, put him on waivers and be done with it. Wouldn't mind seeing a bit more Fedun Edler-Tanev Hutton-Biega Sbisa-Fedun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the guy was questioning you because usually the term 'short leash' means that any small mistake results in immediate repercussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanuck Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Sutter needs to get worked into the line-up gradually imo. Putting him against the leagues top lines right off the bat might be asking too much. The rest of the league is in mid-season form and he's essentially just getting back into full game shape nevermind mid-season conditioning.

I think given that Horvat and Vey have been playing top minutes recently, they could just go that route again. Just give Sutter the offensive zone starts to get Daniel more time at the net, something that was lacking with McCann. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hope he eases back into it and doesn't push too hard to quickly. I have seen way too many players end up right back on IR by pushing too hard.
