they won't sit ZAR he's a penalty killer and has had a good year.
If anything Simon will be the one to sit

I do agree with you. I like the above lines, but for a 4th line spot I think ZAR for sure slots in over Simon - that way he and Rodrigues both kill penalties. Bjudgstad is still such a wild card, who knows if/when/where he gets into this team? We may need his face-off taking ability, which would push McCann back out to LW

McCann's inablity to win face offs has made him a winger. Until he learns to take them, he's still young at 23, he's a winger. Totally agree with that.

If McCann plays 3C with Marleau, Marleau could take the draws and then they immediately switch back.

you know, that isn't a half bad idea. He is a decent faceoff guy at +50%

How about Rodrigues last night too? 5 draws but 4 wins. Same could be said if/when he is on the 4th line with Blueger - let him take the draws from Blueger

Yeah small sample size but it can't worse right?
They looked so bad in that game. Team can't win with no blue line. Chad R, Riikola, Schulz and JJ is not a winning blueline.
