I've never thought Spezza was one of our top-12 forwards, and definitely didn't think he should be trying to hack it at C anymore, so seeing him on the 4th line W is more than fine with me. I'm also no fan of Petan - not nearly skilled enough to make up for his lack of both size and speed (and a worrying Bracco comp, to boot). Aberg has been a legit 3rd line producer and passable possession player against borderline 2nd line competition. For me he's always been the favorite to crack the 3rd line......though that was before Mikheyev's impressive showing last game, which if it continues pushes Aberg down to the 4th line when Hyman is back.
My issue is with Babcock still thinking Goat is good. and I'm sure Dubas will have an issue with that, too.
Mikheyev-Kerfoot-Kapanen
Moore-Shore-Aberg/Agostino
is what I hope to see eventually as the bottom 6 (as long as Mikheyev is what he looked like in his first game).
