Weave Posted December 3, 2015 Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 (edited) Demotion for Eichel Lines at practice: Kane-O'Reilly-Reinhart Larsson-Girgensons-Moulson Gionta-Eichel-McGinn Deslauriers-Legwand/Schaller-Foligno I think McGinn's game suits being on Eichel's wing. He's someone to dig the puck out along the boards and get it to Eichel. Larsson- Girgensons- Moulson sounds like no offense. Larsson just isn't bringing it this season. And Moulson doesn't have it anymore. Edited December 3, 2015 by We've Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samson's Flow Posted December 3, 2015 Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 Demotion for Eichel Lines at practice: Kane-O'Reilly-Reinhart Larsson-Girgensons-Moulson Gionta-Eichel-McGinn Deslauriers-Legwand/Schaller-Foligno It doesn't sound like a demotion to me, only in the way you listed them. If you list the Eichel line as the #2 and the Zemgus line as the #3 as a shutdown line it makes more sense to me. Especially with the way that DD has been treating and talking about Larsson and Moulson, there's no way that line gets 2nd line ice time.

WildCard Posted December 3, 2015 Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 They've posted the lines out of order before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattPie Posted December 3, 2015 Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 They've posted the lines out of order before And in this case, it seems like with little regard to which wings are on each side. Unless they're really putting the only actual RW the Sabres have on Eichel's LW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildCard Posted December 3, 2015 Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 And Larsson got no ice time in the 3rd last game (almost none) and he's been in the dog house, he didn't get a promotion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and the Eichel/Zemgus partnership lasted all of 1 game. :censored: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildCard Posted December 3, 2015 Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 Lehner working out, Pysyk and Ennis are both week-to- week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doohickie Posted December 3, 2015 Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 (edited) And Moulson doesn't have it anymore. People keep saying this. He's fourth on the team in points and goals scored. And he's a +1 in the +/-. Not sure who put those lines in that order, but it actually reads like 1-3-2-4 to me instead of 1-2-3-4 to me. Maybe Bylsma labeled it that way to put Larsson in the "Top 6" since he seems to do better there.

pi2000 Posted December 3, 2015 Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 Give Eichel a few weeks down in Roch to get his groove back and work on his defensive play.... ....great idea? or greatest idea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LGR4GM Posted December 3, 2015 Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 Difference being Jack has already dominated college players. His problem is with NHL speed and keeping his legs going. He needs coaching and time in Buffalo. Again a game off wouldn't hurt. I think sometimes Jack is in over his head but at 19, we all were.

inkman Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 He went to college. No juniors. I'm aware of Jack's history, I just thought I read because he was drafted by a OHL team, he would still have to go there due to his age.
