Feels like we're trying to get as many expendable trade targets in the lineup as we can.
I would be fine with that, if we're going to make a hockey trade with one of them, that doesn't negatively affect our (slim but nontrivial) playoff chances.
However: They've removed Berggren, a guy who makes his line mates look better, and they've inserted Zadina, who does the opposite of that.
And we already had Chiarot in, who's elevating bringing down his team mates to a gruesome art form.
If we wanted to feature merchandise for the trade deadline, we should have had Berggren center a line with Zadina and Vrana. Berggren could play center. Or have Vrana take some faceoffs and pretend to be the center on that line -- it would make him look even more valuable. Yohnnie Burgers would be the guy setting those two trade-baits up, he'd be the real center either way.
And sit Chiarot. If we intend to trade one of Lindstrom or Oesterle, pair one with Maata, he'll make them look good.
