It really is amazing how we've been able to thrive despite all the injuries this season. 

True that and I expect probably geekie to rise to the occasion on the fourth line. It’ll be interesting to see how rod puts the lines together though. 
 

But I will say Trocheck has been playing lights out across the boards. It’s going to be harder to replace his presence on the second line & Power Play.

This team is so entertaining to watch. Having bad goal tending only adds to the entertainment value because you keep your butt clenched the entire time.

I think we've all just been so conditioned to accept shitty goaltending that we expect it, even when it's not there.

Ned is playing like a borderline top 10 netminder.

Mrazek was the best goalie in the league before he got hurt. 

And, as bad as Reimer has seemed, he's been playing like a quality backup. Which is what he is. Last season was probably a fluke.

I was hoping they'd give Paquette a shot at the second line and keep everything mostly the same. That First Line is gonna be serious though, holy poo. The martinook line should be interesting though. Hopefully Martinook remembers it's a hockey goal tonight.

Yeah, that 3rd line is going to be interesting to watch tonight. The first 2 should be money, though.

I was wondering the same thing. I saw yesterday where they said he wasn't at practice. But, never heard what there injury was or when it happened. 

[Stumpy]

NHL injury reports be like...

Day to day, lower leg.

Doesn't sound to serious from what I’ve seen, Probably precautionary.

I am still trying to figure out how we get automatic wins on the icing calls even though he obviously loses.
