Player Discussion Josh Norris (C) 6’-1” - Part 3

  • Xenforo Cloud has upgraded us to version 2.3.6. Please report any issues you experience.

Graeme highlights a couple things here and on CIH this morning

the 2nd line particularly with Batherson playing with negative confidence has no one to transport the puck. He explores the idea of splitting up the top line
putting Norris with Tkachuk and moving Stutzle down ; given that Tkachuk has some ability to make possession zone entries. He also suggests that Norris could move to the wing.

These ideas have been thrown around here.

Right now with Batherson's game in the toilet (he doesn't slot anywhere well) our skill depth is really getting exposed.. Greig is not ready to be the transporter in the top 6. The one guy that isn't terrible at is Gregor but he isn't a top 6 player... Still he could be worth a try to combine with Norrris .. and switch out Perron.

We need adjustments.. As pointed out on CIH our shots against is no where near where it was when we were at the top of our game... Cousins helped the depth.
our 4th line is 2 parts AHL calibre players with Gregor. Maybe Batherson should ride down there till he shows a turn around.

I'd be sending Gaudette down for Ostapchuk yesterday
