Description
Zajac, too -- we need to give our youth a shot. Salo is a long-shot, and if he isn't ready we have Aho or Hickey to throw on that spot, and Greene can still at least servicably fill in as a top-4, worst-case. We got Panik, who although has a lower bounce-back potential than Parise does, I feel like keeping him around as a scratch is a waste of cap-space. Our roster is fine without Parise and Zajac, we have the injury depth necessary to sustain short-term losses and we need to give Wahlstrom a bigger shot this year.

Who is Parise/Zajac blocking? Bellows will get his chances, as did Wahlstrom and Toews. If Bellows can't do what they did and take a roster spot away, he's isn't ready anyway. I'm more than fine with making young players earn it.

Bellows is either getting waived or trades, there is no chance he makes the team. It’s unfortunate but for whatever reason the coaching staff isn’t a fan. He deserved a longer look last season IMO

I don’t mind Parise on a league minimum deal if he plays with Pageau on the 3rd line. I agree that signing Zajac makes no sense even as an extra forward.

There’s no one blocking Wahlstrom from playing top 6 minutes - he should be able to outplay Bailey and Palmieri and if that’s the case then Trotz should do the right thing and move him up in the lineup.

Lou's not going to roll with the kids in a win now situation, be thankful Dobson and Wahlstrom got playing time. If you want to see the kids play wait until the rebuild in a couple years. I'm not saying they don't deserve a chance! Lou's just not willing to take the risk of them not panning out this season, he's trying to win the cup. When they're ready they'll be ready.

As far as enough injury depth, you mean like Komarov on the first line?
