Do you want to face Dallas with a fully healthy Heiskanen or face them with a half injured/rusty Heiskanen?

Yeah that's a good point. Honestly I would rather at least win a round than possibly get sent home straight away.
I don't like the Jets chances against either the Stars or Avs. They are just worse despite the regular season record.

Heiskanen is already skating in Dallas. The round 1 Stars without Heiskanen was always a myth.
Now you can argue he's not going to be 100%, but I think that's probably fair to say in round 2 as well.

Just some global mod bum blasters in the forum. I took care of them. Keep hardly working, boss.
I think it was like from that Naruto show where he clones himself a bunch?

I think Lehky needs to be stapled to Mack. Lehky doesn’t add enough offensively away from Mack imo and Nelson doesn’t drive play well enough to off get Lehky going offensively imo.

We’ll know more soon at gameday skate, but it’s likely Wedgewood.
Took a shot to the head yesterday during optional practice.

They probably just need a warm body as backup for a night and don't want to mess with the Eagles too much.

Expect more line f***ery tonight.
Charlie Coyle in second line burgundy alongside Brock Nelson... at least in practice.

Bednar is not an idiot. I am sure he knows the lines that work the best.
But in the playoffs, if shit happens, he needs to know which combinations are a good fit. I don't mind him trying shit out to see what sticks, I imagine with 2-3 games to go he will move the lines back together ready for the playoffs, but while we have the luxury to do so why not figure out what our options are if we lose a guy or two in the playoffs. Being prepared for any number of eventualities would be helpful, rather than experimenting when it really counts in the playoffs.

Yeah, especially now that we really don't have anything to play for. The Blues/Wild are not catching us, we are not catching Dallas. Experiment, rest guys, whatever.
So, no media availability for Bednar after morning skate? There is nothing out there as to why Girard is out and why Mandolese was recalled.
