When healthy

Little might be headed for 4rw and Appleton to 2rw and wheeler remains in the middle. 3/4 would get similar ice and 4 may even see more with Maurice tendency’s

Wheeler is exhausted, if Little returns he's gonna have to go to 2C and give Wheeler a break, it'd actually be a good idea to put Wheeler on the 3rd line RW and cut back his minutes a bit and that'd give him some softer match ups too but Maurice would never do that.

This team desperately needs another 2C or
middle 6 forward that can play center when injuries occur. They really should've sent a 4th round pick for
Namestnikov, Galchenyuk or someone like that.

Little needs shelter, if wheeler done up the middle, need to trade or continue audition of roslovic, Appleton, copp, and or harkins in the mix for 2c. Little sheltered min, hopefully helps pk and finds him in better situations than a forced 2c min.

If Maurice hasn't given Roslovic a chance at centering anything higher then the 4th line by now he isn't going to. Appleton hasn't played center in years and Harkins is likely to get the Roslovic treatment. Copp had enough time at 2C but there just isn't enough offense to his game to keep that experiment going and he's doing well at 3C so he should stay there.

It's gonna have to be Little or a trade is gonna need to happen but Chevy rarely makes trades so yeah its gonna have to be Little.. Lol

Hopefully a win streak, makes trade deadline interesting, this squad actually isn’t that far away from a threat, kinda want to watch what you wish for though, I’m all right with a slump also and have more assets for future runs and a lottery pick this year. Kind of a winwin for this eternal optimist
