Bjugstad is getting bagged skated. He's not going in.

I'd rather do this anyway.

Kaprizov-Hartman-Zuccarello
Fiala-Jost-Boldy
Greenway-JEE-Foligno
Duhaime-Gaudreau-Desluariers

Defense and Goaltending are already spot on, and somewhat confirmed by Russo.

I hate Zuccarello’s game more and more with every game I watch! He is a complete ho-hum defender and absolutely brutal in the neutral zone! However, maybe he can get Fiala going, and maybe Kaprizov can get Boldy going…

I honestly believe that without Kaprizov, Zuccarello would be a prime candidate to watch from the pressbox!

Agreed other than Duhaime. He's being fine but hasn't done anything that would make me not want to try Dewar. I think Dewar was better on the PK and brought a bit of energy when he did get games this season.

Your just pissing off our best player by moving his Zuccy blanket away from him. He's not the type to complain, but the top four wingers have great chemistry with eachother already. Don't mess with it.

It's more imperative to spark Fiala than it is Kaprizov at this point. Switching out Gaudreau for Jost on that line is probably the better move, given Jost has better speed to match Boldy and Fiala and can actually accommodate the dump and chase that they've stubbornly stuck to so far this series.

TBF, without Kaprizov this team would have been fighting with Vegas for the last Playoff spot.

Hartman completely forgot how to handle the puck and it's killing any flow for that line.
