The lines are taking shape. Should be interesting to see how Minten does between 2 solid wingers.

It will be good to see if this third line can work, whether we will need to make changes or not. Hopefully these three can find some chemistry, and provide the secondary scoring that we've needed for some time. If this doesn't work, I suppose some line juggling, maybe moving Domi with Matthews, and either Nylander or Marner with Minten/McMann... I'm not sure I'd want to break up the Patches/Tavares/Nylander line though....

I think he only has 9 games in NA so far. He is too green. Let him have more games in the AHL.

I like the forward lines, no more Reaves is a Christmas miracle

So he's out for a month....damn
Just start playing better.
These are two very winnable games to give us a nice cushion for first but even if we win, we gotta start playing some better hockey.

Does it really have significance, the way a reporter wrote it down?
I am not sure it matters what he does now... he has had ample chance to show he can contribute, and has failed to do so. A one game contribution would be an exception, not the norm.
Would be nice to move him so he can get a chance somewhere else, it's clearly not going to happen here.

Depends on what it is, how it heals, and how the other goalies perform in his absence. If they excel, they probably stretch it out to be safe. If they don't, he's back sooner.
Personally, I'm not in a rush to move him anywhere to give him that chance. While it's improbable he has much value in a trade, he can be moved as part of a trade when we identify what we actually need... plus, he's probably more valuable as insurance in case of injury, than a 4th or whatever we get.

it might get him another game, but yea I don't see the team having him apart of either long term or short term plans.
He has so much talent, just can't utilize it.

I would say there is zero chance of that.
