That’s Hoglander’s spot. Is hog being pushed to the fourth with one of Bains/Sasson/Raty going out or is he getting scratched?

If he’s scratched for Bains or Sasson, that’s pretty hard to come back from… Sasson was decent in his debut and Bains is Tocchet’s boy (even if he wasn’t very good last game), but Hog simply can’t get scratched for them

Since only Ian MacIntyre is the only media member traveling, we won't be getting any practice lines.

I peeked at our schedule and the Friday game is noon PST while the Sunday game is at 9:30 AM PST. This and all the 2-3+ day breaks we’ve had so far is wild

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

It sounds like Boeser may return tomorrow, and Demko is inching closer.

US Thanksgiving weekend for the Americans. So, a bunch of early games. Today is the last practice until after the Minn game I would imagine. B2B, then day off for travel on US Thanskgiving, then a 3pm local start. Will travel after the game to Minny. Likely day off on Sat before the noon game local time on Sunday.

Demko is inching closer.

Yep only another 3-4 weeks!

Don’t mess with the Debrusk/Pettersson/Sherwood line.

Shift Sherwood to the left side and slot Boeser in. DeBrusk is replaceable.

You lose forechecking speed then, I think Petey with 2 good skaters with skill and some physicality is a nice fit. You unlock Petey's upside with rush offense imo. I hope Tocchet doesn't pull the plug on this line so quickly even if they have a meh game or 2.

Boeser has become more of a cycle player, that's why he and Miller work so well. Watching Boeser play, his go-to move in the offensive zone is to cycle the puck and pass it back to the point and then move toward the net. Petey kinda sucks in the cycle.
