I think you're right on the nose with some of this, only thing I don't agree with is Dobson. I know it's a tricky slope with him, given he can't go to the AHL but anyone who has played the game can tell you practice can never emulate game play. So, yes, it's great that he's practicing everyday with NHL quality players, but he's not getting any game action which is vital for a young players development. The kid needs to be playing everyday, if the only place he can do that is Juniors, then they have to consider it when he gets close to that 9 game mark. My only hope here is that they are dragging out his 9 games in the hopes they can trade one of the other D before then.
As for the lines, I'd like to see something like this when everyone is back...
Lee - Barzal - Bailey
Brassard (can play both wings) - Nelson - Eberle
Beau - Cizikas - Wahlstrom (no reason he shouldn't stay up)
dal Colle - Bardreau - Clutterbuck
Johnston-Komarov
Obviously when Martin and Kuhnhackl come back some decisions will need to be made then.
I don't like wishing injury on players, but it's funny that the injury bug has hit our FWs this year, where we can't really sustain key injuries but has left our D untouched, where we have the depth to absorb key injuries. Since he is already out, having Leddy be out for a little while with his LBI could be a good thing... give Dobson a chance to step in and take the job like Toews did last year.
