If Enstrom was our third pairing, I'd agree... however, Kulikov would fill his role and Kulikov is a better player

Playing Kulikov on his off-side with Chiarot is bad, not good.

Kulikov-Buff
Chiarot-Morrow

versus

Enstrom-Buff
Chiarot-Kulikov

Yeah I'll take option 2 all day.

  • I think I would be more worried if I was the Predators the Jets ran rough shot over the best d core in the league that was at full strength.

  • While there are a few aspects of Enstrom's game that I find frustrating, replacing him in the lineup with a clearly inferior player is ... obviously bad, not good.

I'm talking about

Morrissey-Buff

Kulikov-Myers

Chiarot-Poolman

Morrow is here so that Poolman can play in the AHL and not sit in the pressbox imo

Is he here to replace Chiarot? Offensively he does.

I'd say they're basically the same guy.  I really think he's here to give Poolman playing time with the Moose.

I'm not sure that the plan isn't to keep developing Poolman and give him the call up if there's an injury...  maybe Morrow is more of a replacement for Melchiori (?)

They are stylistically two completely different players.  Morrow made it to the NHL based on his offensive abilities and was even getting power play time in Montreal.  He's similar size to Morrissey and not overly physical.  Chiarot is purely a stay-at-home, big, physical defenceman.  They're really not the same at all. 

Morrow has bumped Poolman down the depth chart, IMO... if we were down to our 8th defenceman, you'd see Morrow in the lineup rather than Poolman.

All 6-7 defencemen are 'basically the same guy' - some have a bit more offence, some block more shots... but they're all interchangeable

And glad you know exactly what Maurice is thinking - reminds me of when everyone was trying to figure out where Quinton Howden was going to fit in our lineup

While I liked O'Dell and James Wright... those names just make me feel 100x better about our bottom six right now.

Heck, even thinking that we've gone from Burmi-Lowry-Stafford to Ehlers-Statsny-Laine as our third line is great...

3rd line becomes 2nd line in 3, 2, 1...

Statsny still has a huge job to offset Ehlers and Laine's defensive lapses...  keep them as third line and PP specialists - enjoy the goals

In reality, Ehlers-Statsny-Laine will be our fourth line when Lowry's back and we're in the playoffs

wow sounds like Stastny hasn't scored at all this season but those assists are impressive

His shooting percentage is super low but I think he's still scored...
