Also some guy named Crosby is returning apparently.

Is Rodrigues really going to be with Sid? And is Boyle really playing ahead of someone like Simon?

Because putting Simon in for Boyle and playing him next to Sid and Jake, and putting Rodrigues at 4C between O'Connor and Heinen seems to make more sense.

But then Rodrigues wouldn't be on a scoring line.

Idiot!

Sullivan's desire to keep Rodrigues on a scoring line is at war with his desire to staple Simon to Crosby's wing whenever he gets a chance.

If I had any photoshop skills, I'd use that cartoon meme with the guy sweating because he doesn't know which button to press.

I thought this was one of those theoretical paradoxes, but we're going to see what happens in real life.

What a time to be alive.

I'd much rather take Simon > Rodrigues on that top line for the short term, tbh. Of course, it'd be better to put Kap there and break up Kap/Zucker, but if we did that, we'd have to revisit the idea of our previously agreed-upon duos, and that's simply not possible.

Guentzel - Crosby - Heinen
Zucker - Carter - Kapanen
Simon - Blueger - McGinn
ZAR - DOC - Rodrigues

would be my idea.

It's still pretty cool that the 3rd line is allowed 4 players with Aston-Reese-Blueger-and McGinn.

That should be a huge advantage.

I'd swap Kap and Heinen, but I'm okay with that too. I just don't like Zuck - Cart - Kap and I don't think it's going to be super-effective but maybe I'll be surprised for once.

Zucker and Kap has shown nothing together regardless of center for whatever reason…yet Sully has to force it
