Makes you worry about cohesion etc. Lines are clicking right now...unless you do something with the 4th line.

Will be curious to see if TT draws back in tonight and where. Also Drury should be getting close.

Drury ya. TT could be dropped in on 1 with no ill effects in my opinion. He’d probably even boost Guenz shooting opportunities more so than the current makeup.

I think you need to leave Jarvy on the 1st line. They need some tenacity...Turbo isn't that!

Don’t discount turbo though. The guy is one of our best 2 way forwards, is a unrated passer plus a decent shot and is a heavier forecheck than Jarvis when he’s playing physical(his board puck control game is miles ahead of Jarvis still). That said I could see him slotting in the shutdown line against top teams though. 
 

Jarvis’s individual offensive ceiling is higher for sure, but he also plays a similar role to Guenz. That why I think allowing Guenz to play his normal role with TT doing setup is the best way to go against most teams.

Jarvy gets a defender on his hip and he sees the net in front of him, he's going. He either draws a penalty, gets a SOG or scores.

Don't over think it have you seen how potent Jarvy and Guezt are together? All you need to see!

Don’t forget about the Finnish connection just cause you got a new toy.

Cam York was chirping the hell out of Jake last night and even squared up with him a couple times. Jake just skated away and ignored him, which was a good thing. Couple guys on the Flyers took issue with Jake- wonder if it's a Philly-Pittsburgh thing...

[Harbingers]

We aren’t morning skating today… not sure I approve of this. Sloppy loose play projected to continue.

[Harbingers]

Canes going full practice at noon before they head up to Pittsburgh. 

[Harbingers]

So apparently it’s an optional skate instead of a full practice.

Those participating above. 
 

If Fast is a go tomorrow gonna be curious to see who’s odd man out.

First clinches of the season can occur tonight, Florida and Boston are in the same boat as us where the caps need to beat the redwings and they need to win their respective games(for an 8th clinch). Rags just need to beat Philly or have the redwings lose. 

We need as posted above basically a win and either a red wings loss(8th clinch) or win and Philly loss in regulation(3rd in metro clinch).
