I would rotate him out, have him spend a game watching from the rafters in the box. Get a different perspective. He did not look good again in this game. Take advantage of the numbers you have on defense right now.
Also, it is way past time to replace a few guys on this team. Asplund, in game one, looks light years better than Larson. Sir butt kiss, er, I mean Sobotka, Larson and Okposo need to go to Rochester. Thompson, Asplund and Lazar should be in the lineup going forward. It's time to move on from some of the garbage at the bottom of this line up...Lazar, Thompson and Asplund looks and sounds better than Larson, Girgs and Okposo. More speed, more size and more scoring ability.
I would use Vesey, Mitts and Johansen as my third line when Johansen is healthy.
The Eichel line is fine.
Go get a center or a winger for Skinner using Risto. Figure out which winger / center works best with the Skinner line ( I have no faith in Sheary or ERod) and your done.
Potential bodies to move out:
Sobotka, Larson, ERod, Sheary, Okposo, Risto**
In: Lazar , Thompson, Asplund , Player attained**
Extra Forward: Girgs - possible deadline trade for pick, or package with Risto. |
