It's Adams not Ruff.

Lindy Ruff needs to go. We all know Adams is useless but there's a 1% chance he told Ruff to play Greenway on line 1.

Ah, the old Lindy Ruff line shuffle.

Wow, in what universe is Greenway a top line winger? This organization is an absolute disaster. 

Lindy going to set a league record for the tallest line in the NHL.

Are you keeping up with the literature that says that recently, GMs in baseball and hockey are not only dictating who plays, but also are dictating where in the lineup?

But I do agree that Greenway on line 1 is likely a Ruff thing.

Boycotts are good.

Paul Hamilton stated postgame last week that Thompson likes playing with Greenway. There are positives and negatives but it is a big line and will be hard to push around.

Who is coming in for Östlund.

Would expect it to be a spare D, either Kesselring finally getting healthy or the marvelous (at the AHL level, not so much at the NHL level) Zach Metza.

And Metsa it is.

Has Metsa actually been in for any games? That may have completely snuck past me.

I kinda think the Greenway on the first line is a good choice against Calgary. Their D is huge. We know Tuch and Tage can play together and Greenway is useless everywhere else. I like it.
