    Interesting seeing how we have 2 number 1 picks (RD, OP), a 4th pick (BB) and the 32nd pick (MT) making up 4 out of the 6 on the ice! I'd say we are young and flush with talent with no solid vets to back them up and show them how to play night in and night out.

    By MT I assume you mean MS - of those 4 guys 3 are "offensive" defenseman, with Dahlin the only one of the 3 who might be considered sound defensively.  Power has been a disaster in his own zone, and Byram has been up and down (though the offense seems to mostly make up for it.) But when we are defending a lead, this team isn't generally looking to generate offense and our strength on D becomes a weakness.

    Please no. Anton Wahlberg is younger than Benson. If there's one guy other than Helenius at forward we need to develop proper, it's Wahlberg. Let him stay in Rochester after a nice WJC. 

    I definitely don't want Wahlberg here long term, but I don't think it's necessarily a bad idea to give him a few games here if he's earned it (and to remind him that the WJC and NHL are entirely different levels of competition and he needs to keep working his ass off.)

     

    I'm also fine with Murray or Kozak being the call up.
