I've been assuming we're going to keep 8 — sending Tucker through waivers, but I don't know who/how you're anticipating to create time for two players when Kessel and Suter are the only real candidates for swapping in/out. Suter/Kessel is an interesting pairing that I suppose you can break up to jolt the PP, but...clearly Perunovich is not going to be anchoring PP1 if he's playing every day.Watching live, I thought Perunovich looked just fine. His limitations are obvious but he made some good defensive stops and kept guys wide. Moved the puck well on the PP.
I think 6 of the D spots are obvious. Peru, POJ and Tucker are battling for the #7 spot. Maybe an extra survives if they keep 8.
Re: Dvorsky — Curious if you got good looks on some of those one handed and/or reaching passes he makes? The broadcast views in junior, tourney, and camp don't provide the best angles, but it has come across as a very unique skill. I said it another thread but it looks like he's got exceptional power/accuracy from every part of his blade regardless if he's reaching or jammed up.Got home from the game. Some thoughts:
Parayko’s an awesome dude. My kid had a sign asking for a puck. Not only did Parayko give him a puck but he also banged on the glass a couple times and winked at him. He simply gets it. My son has a new favorite player.
Dvorsky looked ok. Some good plays but pretty clearly not NHL ready IMO.
Awesome to hear re: Parayko. My Dad is plugged into the same 'racing circle' as Parayko. The team gushes about how great of a guy he is and how far out of his way he goes to be thoughtful and just a good dude.
