Even though I am not a fan usually, I would go 7 dmen tonight. P. Russell doesn't do anything for you. Bear has been out a long time and with a concussion, you just never know. You can skate hard in practice all you want, it's nothing like a game so it will take him a few to get up to game speed. Plus you aren't potentially getting drilled in a practice so to be safe, have an extra guy.

Vancouver is a fast team, I didnt get the PRuss over Nygard argument tueaday and I wouldn’t get it tonight either.
I’m not a fan of the 7D thing either, but if it’s a matter of keeping Bouchard in the lineup or then trotting PRuss out there again, 7D would be a welcomed sight.
Edit: to be faaaaaair, Bear in and either Russell out is a bonus.

With a young D and a suspiciously weak 4th line centre spot open, I like running 7 D. You can cherry pick Bouchard and Bear’s zones starts and sub in 97 or 29 at center for extra offence on the bottom line.
McDavid and Draisaitl were feasting on 4th line matchups in previous games.
