Great for Clune and I'm sure the players love him too. Lack of depth makes it easier to play him this year too.
Not sure why we didn't send Liljegren down for these games coming up if we aren't planning on giving him a look at the NHL level. Was nice to give him a pay bump but if you need a body for the taxi squad just bring up Kivihalme or Rosen and let him continue his hot start.

Marlies were in Calgary when Liljegren and Agostino were assigned to the taxi squad. Would have been easy enough to swap bodies the last few days.We are out west and Marlies are in Toronto.
I'd hope so. Keefe is a much more likely guy to give him a shot than Babcock would have been but with Dermott and Lehtonen both able to play the right side I can't see us healthy scratching two of them or Bogosian to play him right now.Given they're on a western road trip they would want him travelling with the team. My guess is he'll get in on one of the back to back games this week against either Edmonton or Vancouver.. Probably Vancouver since Keefe won't want to have him exposed against McDavid.
Keefe said they wanted Lilly around the team, and I think the plan is to give him a game in the upcoming back to back. As @BertCorbeau mentioned, probably Vancouver so he doesn't have to face McDavid.Great for Clune and I'm sure the players love him too. Lack of depth makes it easier to play him this year too.

The likely play is giving Bogosian a rest, and putting a natural RHD instead of someone who can play the right side in Dermott or Lehtonen.I'd hope so.

Even ignoring that, why is D'Agostino starting again?it's going to be cool to see Galchenyuk, but the defense without Liljegren/Sandin looks worrying
there's not really many options, but I really don't get that either. Edmonds should probably be startingEven ignoring that, why is D'Agostino starting again?
He looked fatigued last game so it's odd. Is Edmonds not capable of starting 1 game?there's not really many options, but I really don't get that either. Edmonds should probably be starting
