Glad to see Malenstyn get a well deserved seat upstairs. He'll hit and block the odd shot, but is an offensive black hole. Kozak and Dunne can play the same role... Only better.

Krebs... Your next.

Greenway... You too.

I thought about including Quinn on this list but part of me feels he's on the brink of figuring out his game. There's definite glimpses. Kind of like when Thompson was younger, but hadn't quite put it all together yet.

I don't get the Malenstyn disrespect. He's a monster on the forecheck. He often beats players to the puck on dump-ins.

Because if you don’t score and you’re not on the top line, dude don’t want them on the team

Did Malenstyn tweak something last game? I'm surprised with his speed that he's the first one sitting.

I will be watching.  Really need this to be a win.

The Bills game is hurting me, as did the hockey Flame Out on Wednesday.

Fixing the fourth line will not move the needle toward the playoff goal.  The fourth line players are good enough for a wildcard team, and for most teams actually.    

The problem is the top 6 and it has been for a long time.  Improve the top 6, move some of the current 6 to the 3rd line. 

Everyone likes Doan.  I do too.  But he is not a first line player at this point in his career.  He would not be top 6 on top 8 team. 

Add better players, improve the first line and benefit from the trickle down.
