Per sureLoss, these are all emergency recalls so they all have to play tomorrow or else they have to get back sent down. That means we get to see them all play
I wouldn't sit Monahan and Brodie just because it gives them a shot at a full 82 game season, you just reduce their ice time.Guys like Brodie, Wideman, Russell definitely need a rest! They've played some heavy minutes!
Hudler, Gaudreau, Monahan should also get the night off, imo.
Potter, Wotherspoon, Kulak, Ferland, Wolf, Poirier, Bennett, etc. can all play big minutes and let some of our vets bumps and bruises heal up!
I think Wolf will flank themBennett - Poirier together is salivating. I wonder if they would have good chemistry together if put on the same line.

McGrattan is on a sabbatical for the birth of his first child, He hasn't been with ADK is a couple/few weeks now.I wonder what the call up rules are. With Toronto calling up Colton Orr to play his last NHL game, I was thinking it'd be nice to bring McGrattan back up for his likely last NHL game as well (sadface).
Wolf & Poirier have played together a decent amount and produce well together.That would easily be my favorite line of the night.

an inability to perform at a high level?That duo gives me an Erixson
Gaudreau,Monohan,Colborne Bennett,Backlund,Jones
Ferland,Stajan,Jooris
Bollig,Shore,Poirer
Wotherspoon,Engelland
Schlemko,Potter
Kulak,Ramage

That's Oilers quality defense right there.

Frankly unless Gaudreau and Monahan are genuinely not banged up at all, I'd sit them.
The playoffs is going to be a marathon and having 6 days off from Thursday night through Wed would be great for that whole first line.
I realize we need to ice a team, but I think our Top 4 D and Top line should all be out
That's Oilers quality defense right there.
