Middleton is a character, seems like a good locker room guy as well.
He's also showing himself to be better than CDH. I would keep him on the 3rd pairing upon Manson's return since CDH stinks.

Something has to happen with Mittelstadt. This is beyond concerning. He's not even useful on the ice in the way J.T Compher somewhat was in a 2C role.

Plenty of hipsters saw it, but they thought it would remain cooler if only they knew about it

CDH was decent for a little while but he’s turned back into that guy who thinks it’s good defense to keep backing up until you hit your goalie. Also can’t seem to secure the puck in crucial situations.

And just makes dumb, slow decisions. I can't stand him.

At least with Middleton there's physicality and a net-front presence while not being a skating liability.

We might be ok and get by the regular season and make the playoffs without Mitts contributing much, but we definitely need him to produce in the playoffs or we probably won’t go too far

I swear a week ago people were saying CDH was very good, much better than JJ ever was, etc.

Now Middleton is better and CDH should never play again :laugh:

So the correct determination is that neither is good, and we must bring back JMFJ at the deadline!

Along with Mitts being completely useless, Colton is a cause for concern. I don’t think his foot is bothering him as he’s skating just fine.

Bednar is clearly not happy with him, demoting him from the 2nd line to the 4th line during tonight’s game. Kivi went up to the 2nd line and Ivan to the 3rd.

Bednar was asked if he’d be back on the top line because Bednar had said that was the plan when he came back. “Yeah, well, depends on how he plays, right?” He’s not happy with Rosco at all.
