If Peterka is back (ruff didnāt rule him out) our forwards are fine. If notā¦ā¦ yikes. Rosen please?

I said to try this last season and see what happens. I argue that bryson is close to being the best skater on the team. He just can’t win corner battles to save his life on defense. They tried the opposite with mitch marner last season.Ā
Just shows that we still have no forward depth due to our youth.Ā

Bryson isn’t being tried at forward people relax. Peterka is still injured, so Bryson is placeholding as the 12th forward in drills. Looks like Lindy might decide to go 11/7 if Peterka can’t play in the home opener.

Has anybody tried putting OP at LW?

Welp, letās hope we get a good lottery pick.

Donāt mind Krebs on a line with Thompson and Tuch, tbh. Heās more of a pass first guy, which is something Thompson and Tuch might benefit from.

All these years of high first-round draft picks and still we have no depth. What an abomination.

When we got McLeod basically every Oilers fan was saying “he’s better on the wing.” I’d much rather give that a shot and moving Krebs to 3c.

Line 1: replaced injured top scorer with opening night 4th line scratch
Line 2: scoring line featuring unproven rookie replacing an injured 19 year old
Line 3: top free agent signings and trade acquisitions apparently not good enough to fill either of those aforementioned gaps, kept on 3rd line
Line 4: new “tough” 4th line, featuring our smallest and least physical defenseman

Get ready for the Lindy line blender. Literally every game will be different

Um, what? I wouldn’t mind seeing Wahlberg get a look there.

Awful, just awful

Wasnāt Lindy a D-man that converted to Forward or the opposite?
I donāt like Bryson as a defender. I might like him as a 4th line forward better.
Seems like we should have some other options though.
