not sure why this guy has only been given one game out of three.
I agree.....what's going on here.? He wasn't great against Calgary in the opener, but nobody on thenot sure why this guy has only been given one game out of three.
Yeah, this is weird. No word of injury or illness, yet not playing. Signs a 2 year deal @ 2mil per, in which Tocchet even phoned the guy to help convince him to sign, then he's back-to-back scratched after only one game.
It really doesn't make sense... obviously there is something going on
You saw why tonight. I actually felt a little sorry or Brannstrom. You get the call-up and want to make a good first impression. But you end up tethered to a boat anchor like Desharnais.Agree. He’s night and day better than Juulsen, doesn’t make any sense.
Desharnais was more or less even tonight in chances by any of the metrics (corsi, xG, scoring chances), and so was Brannstrom when paired with Desharnais... except Brannstrom finished in the pits because he had a bad shift with Soucy.You saw why tonight.

So he's only played two of the first four games.....and it's been mostly hard to watch.
