There was a lot of (over) confidence Emberson's small sample advance stats would translate into 2nd pair responsibilities & ice time. Bit surprised they've moved him out of third pairing but clearly they are trying to Rubik's cube a second pair fix with now flipping Nurse to 2RD and experimenting with Dermott on his natural side. Lurching closer to a 9-1-1 call to an unsigned veteran stopgap middle pair option Shattenkirk or even Schulz.Emberson scratched again.
Did we even scout this guy? Or did KK just say, 'hey I know a guy!'
Nurse has played well the past several games. Let's see how this next reiteration of deployment of three rotating #7-8 guys goes.
Do think the Oilers win tonight. Real solid road game in Dallas until the dumb Stetcher penalty.
