Nuge - McD - JP
Kahun - Leon - Yamo
Neal - Turris - Kassian
Archie - Khaira - P.Russell
Nurse - bear
K. Russell - Barrie
Jones - Larsson
That 4th line sucks. Having P. Russel AND Khaira means you are getting ZERO chance of offense. Haas can't get back fast enough.
I am OK to get Jones back in there but I am a little surprised they took out Koekkoek to do it. I thought he's been decent most games.

Tippet turned up the suck AND the Must with this lineup. Woof.

The top 3 lines I line. No issues there. The 4th line, I don't like 2 of the 3 players on it. I know P.Russell will come out and fly around which I can appreciate but he will beat the puck square. Khaira, he's sat for 5 straight games. He lost his job to a PTO guy and probably only got the start because Haas wasn't available. I have to think this is it for him. If he can't seize a spot, I think it's over. I really have my doubts for them both but I hope I am proved wrong.
The defense. I get wanting Jones in there. If he's the future, you can't have him continuously sitting. It's been 4 games in a row already. I don't agree with sitting Koekkoek but at the same time, I don't think Russell has deserved a seat. He's been fine. The guy that deserves a seat is Larsson and Jones doesn't shoot the same way. Tippett did mention Bouchard had a back thing, maybe that is Larssons stay of execution. He needs to pick it up real soon because young guys are breathing down his neck and he's faultering big time.
