Pre-Game Talk: Toronto @ Ottawa | Weekend at Eugene’s | Fri Jan 15 @ 7pm

ah got it, thanks.

I just started a taxi squad and cap accrual thread and likely everyone will kick in info in there for us as we go. I’m not at all up to speed either puckstuff. There is a good read in that thread and hopefully/ likely there will be more added.

Why change a winning lineup?

Because they can play better if coach forms better lines.

Not breaking up Tavares-Nylander just yet. They look good together. Tavares benefits from having fast wingers play with him

Robertson should get in for Vesey soon enough. Not against giving Vesey 1 more game though.

When Robertson does get in he would be best used in a shooting role rather then a grinding role imo so i’d play him in a top 6 role with either Marner, Tavares or Nylander. Not against sending Barabanov down and calling up Engvall either (if Barabanov doesn’t play well in game 1 vs Ottawa). Jumbo to the 4th line for me.

Hyman-Matthews-Marner
Robertson-Tavares-Nylander
Mikheyev-Kerfoot-Engvall
Thornton-Spezza-Simmonds

Engvall will not be up for a while. Vesey should be there for now playing with Kerfoot.

According to the sens forum Otta has Josh Norris and Drake Batherson as 2 of their top 3 centers, those 2 have 46 games combined, Josh Norris has 3, Tavares and Matthews need to dominate the center battle this weekend

Batherson is a winger, playing with Norris and Tkachuk.
