Vagrant
The Czech Condor
The problem is, Vagrant, somebody has to take those minutes. Faulk and Sekara can't play 27 every night while the others get table scraps. Last night I thought Murphy earned his minutes, even if he was a little careless at times in his own zone. He was making things happen, and down 2-0, that's kind of what you need.
When Gleason gets back, and it seems he's a week or so away, I figure things will sort themselves out. For now, I wouldn't mind swapping Harrison and Hainsey and running something like this:
Faulk // Sekara
Hainsey // Murphy
Harrison // Komisarek
Bellemore
The third pairing might be pretty terrible and slow, but would you rather have two C bottom four pairings or a B and a D?
It just seems like lately we've been running two pairs and hiding another and that seems to be counterproductive. I would put Murphy on the bottom pairing with either Bellemore or Komisarek and shift them a regular shift. Move Harrison with Hainsey and lean on them like a traditional second pairing and let Harry get comfortable again with those minutes. Perhaps even give Komisarek a look with Hainsey if he can get back into the lineup and look decent enough. It's just that the changes are so polar in who we shift and who we don't that it's hard for guys to get a comfort level.
