I generally think people overreact to how the young players are handled but I’ll be stunned if they play Holl over Johansson at this point.

I should wait and see before I begin the handwringing but in particular I don’t understand the lack of opportunity afforded to Johansson. The organize has spoken glowingly about him at every turn and yet, at 23 years old, he has zero NHL games played. I just don’t get the handle of AlJo

I'm hoping it's because Petry is day to day so shouldn't miss much time. Then it makes sense you may not want to bring the kid up for one game and ship him back.

EDIT: Just saw the "lines you want to see" thread where there's a tweet saying Johansson will be paired with Seider.

Take a peek in the "Lines you expect to see" thread

I saw that but the coaching staff has said it’s tbd who will actually play.

Practice in the top 6 is not the same as being trusted to play in the top 6.
