I would have kept Carrick in for Ryan. Carrick is bigger, not that it matters that much in this series but more physical. I think he skates a little better and he's been better at faceoffs this series. I've thought the 4th line was pretty good since he came in and except for the PK, Ryan isn't giving the team much.

Carrick getting plenty love from Oilers media, but it's the typical grinder bias. There's not much there that he's doing that isn't easily replaced by even a cardboard cut out.
He's played in 8 playoff games, and has only 4 shots in that whole time. He's okay on the faceoff, but really, does nothing else. He has 28 hits, which is why guys like Bob Stauffer are going to love him. That said, if those hits are not leading to puck retrievals and chances on goal? Then they have very limited impact.
Last game he played all of 8:40, was -1 and had one shot on goal. That's a pretty low bar for his replacement.
Worth noting, Ryan isn't much better this playoff. 8 shots in 12 games playing 9 mins a night. He's got more track record, but I don't think there's a lot of gas left in that tank. The Oilers have decided that they prefer aged veterans to promising youth, but I do wonder what it looks like if they would have a couple of the young guys from the AHL team in those roles instead.
