Question is, whose place does he take? My money is on the injured Pasta. It could be Whalstrom et al, but I doubt it.

Who knows since there was no morning skate. The lines in the GDT are based off of last night.

 

[BradMarchandismydad]

They giving him 4 or 8 to wear? Has he been named captain yet? Get the duck boats ready.

Lysell will cure all my ailments

Regardless of his play I will insist he looks better live

 

[McGarnagle]

Took them long enough, let's go Lysell

Hmmm, my money is still on replacing Pasta. We shall see.

 

[TCB]

My uneducated guess he replaces wahlstrom on the 3rd line

 

[BiteThisBurrows]

I really doubt that Lysell will be the answer to anything but it sure would be a happy new year if he surprises and steps up. The opportunity is certainly there and if he really wants to be an NHL player this is a moment to seize. A fast skating sniper is certainly something this team badly needs.

I'm not sure where they play him, but if they want him to succeed he needs a shot at top 6. So unless he's replacing an injured Pasta I'm probably moving Coyle back down to line 3 since it's been useless without him.

Maybe go with Brazzeau Coyle Kastelic and bump lazy Freddy down to the 4th line or even the press box.

My uneducated guess he replaces wahlstrom on the 3rd line

I’d like to see him on the third line. But I’d also want to play him on his natural right.

Koepke - Frederic - Lysell
Beecher - Kastelic - Beazeau

That’s how I’d go.

My uneducated guess he replaces wahlstrom on the 3rd line

Ty Anderson's best guess on 98.5.com says third line also.

 

[Sigh]

I’m excited to see Lysell, though my expectations are in check. Can’t help but wonder why it took so long.

[mar2kbos]

I think Lysell played last night? Tells me there is probably an injury more than just a normal call up. Could be wrong

They should’ve called up Poitras too if they’re looking for success on the third line cause then you’ll see effort… not just see 3 quarters of a line going through the motions.

Yeah he’s definitely due as well

 

[Blitzkrug]

Kinda funny in hindsight they called up a small army of plugs before they considered giving Lysell a chance.

Like why not do this a couple weeks ago? Did we really need to see McLaughlin, Viel, or Tufte or the 9 games they wasted on Tyler Johnson over this kid?

 

[Olden McGroin]

 

[BruinsFanMike82]

Wahlstrom and Beecher will be tonight's scratches. Brazeau - Frederic - Lysell is the 3rd line.

 

[Absurdity]

 

[ON3M4N]

Lysell called up? This will be fun. If he's anything short of the savior tonight, they'll be a section of fans ready to write him off.

 

[hrdpuk]

I have an extreme dislike for all things X

 

[bruinsfan1968]

I hope no one sees Lysell as a savior because he isn't, he's just a young guy.

 

[PlayMakers]

I don't think he brought enough sticks.

 

[Absurdity]

If Beecher and Wahlstrom are sitting, are the Bruins going with 11F and 7D? Is McLauhglin playing even though he was technically sent down to Providence?

Yes, they play hard, practice hard, listen to the coaches and support their teammates. Lysell doesn't. Happy to see McLaughlin still in the line up.
