For the most part, I like the lines.

Wish they could find a fit for Dube.

Hasn't been able to play on the Grind Line as a RW.

Not good enough defensively to play on Backlund's line.

One good game so far as a C with Mange.

I actually would like to see him get a little more time with Mang and Toff. Then put Calle on the right wing with Backs and Coleman. And let Lewis, Looch, and Money create fits on the fourth line.

id go:

Mangiapane, Backlund, Coleman

Dube, Jarnkrok, Toffoli 

Lucic, Monahan, Lewis

 

 

I haven’t liked shag I’ve seen so far since changing it up a few games ago. Something just isn’t right ATM with the mix as is.

 

JTech suggestion could work too:

 

Mangiapane, Dube,  Toffoli 

Coleman, Backlund, Jarnkrok

Lucic, Monahan, Lewis

 

id also like to put Monahan back on PP1. I feel Johnny knows Monahan in that situation. The PP has been stale a bit lately.

Well, if it was me....

 

Top line

Coleman-Backlund-Jarny

Mange-Ruzie-Toffoli

Lucic-Monahan-Lewis/Dube

 

Sorry, but I think that Dube hasn't earned a spot any more than Ruzie has.

The advantage is he can play 3 positions.  Lewis can play 2.

Jarny and Coleman can swap sides if they like.  Jarny can take strong side draws.

4th line is speed with Dube and defensive with Lewis.

 

EDIT - the big reason Ruzie isn't on the roster is due to roster.  Not flexible the way it is.  

Maybe the coach is not as high on Ruzie but the last moves with him were for roster purposes, not play.

it was funny lastnight when the media asked darryl why gubby was out second period lol

 

Yeah, he said he could sew up a cow faster.

 

Roster note - Ruzie is not in California.  So, read into that what you may.  I expect to see a waiver movement sometime next week.  Not sure why BT didn't do it before TDL, but then again, if he's making a trade, it's a player out and one in.  Or a guy already in the AHL.

Sutter says a lot of things about the backup in pressers that don't really mean what they sound like.

Wants the team to have his back, as if he's not able to steal games.

Wants the goalie to be more than just a backup in case they need it.

Just my opinion of course, but I laugh at the way the media interprets his comments.
