[Jojalu]

Domi going to play C?

 

[Dekes For Days]

Good. He deserves it and we could use the scoring threat in our depth.

 

[BTP]

This is his last chance to prove he can play at this level.

 

[TMLAM34]

Robertson - Domi - Jarnkrok I’m assuming will be the third line?

 

[AlienWorkShop]

This is his last chance to prove he can play at this level.

nah

This is his last chance to prove he can play at this level.

A 21yr olds last chance? I don't think it is. If he stays healthy he is an NHLer all day. Skill level is there, drive is there. Body seems a bit fragile to this point. Hopefully he can withstand the physicality. TB is a good test as they're a prtty physical bunch.

 

[Buds17]

I'm both happy to have Robertson with the big team and disappointed with Holmberg being sent down (in fairness, this short stint was underwhelming for the latter).

 

[Judas Tavares]

I swear him getting into games in the bubble at the age of 18 seem to make people think this guy is 25 years old.

 

[SprDaVE]

This is his last chance to prove he can play at this level.

That's a weird thing to say. He's got plenty of time to figure it out. You're talking like he's 26 years old.

This is likely true.

 

[Stephen]

Good chance for the kid to show us what he’s got and step over some of the UFA adds.

Finally

The only difference between Knies at the NHL level and Robertson last year is that Knies didnt get injured

Robertson is promising and offers secondary scoring ability

Him and Knies should ideally be on the same line

Knies - Domi - Robertson 3rd line
Gregor - Kampf - Holmberg - 4th line

Reeves healthy scratch until he can work things out and show that he can play when he gets called upon

Bertuzzi and Jarnkrok stick in top 6

 

[kevsh]

I'll be surprised if this lasts.

He's done great at the AHL level, but so did guys like Petan. Doesn't always equate to NHL success. I do agree he should be given a shot though - Not only has he earned it but this bottom 6 has been dreadful so anything to give them a jump start should be explored.

 

[BlackAdam]

I hope this is followed with Ryan Reaves placed on waivers.

 

[Macallan18]

This is his last chance to prove he can play at this level.

lol no

Ditto

He had a glimpse in the game as Dallas?

He was 5 drafts ago.

19 Point NHLer so far.

Looks like he's going 100 MPH and thinking 70 MPH.

Scoring is in great need in the bottom 6.

 

[Burnie97]

Awesome. Get us some goals. Let's go.

 

[Macallan18]

please send Reaves to the press box

 

[Once]

Can’t say I’m a big fan either. He does have the scoring touch which is desperately needed in the bottom 6.

Knies - Matthews - Marner
Bert - Tavares - Nylander
Robertson - Domi - Jarnkrok

Top 9 looks good on paper. Third line has a puck distributor, finish, and a defensively responsible forward to anchor the group. Questions about Domi as a Center but we will have to see. He needs to get going and hopefully Robertson can help.

 

[Twine Tickler]

This was the right call. A couple days to a week overdue, but better late than never. Well done Robby. After a disappointing preseason, he put his head down and put in the work in the A.

Happy to see him get rewarded. Lord knows he has been through the gauntlet

 

[Larcos_Unal]

McMann on the 4th line, Reaves in a suit and we're in business

 

[Phion Keneuf]

Let’s go buddy. Time to make an impact

 

[stickty111]

The right decision

 

[BTP]

lol no

With this team. I believe he will request a trade to somewhere else if he doesn't stick. He's been given plenty of chances and just never stuck. Maybe he'll have better luck on another team with a fresh start.
