Description

Thing 1: Josh Brown, you no longer have a spot on this roster. It's obviously not his fault he got COVID, and you obviously hope he's able to come back at 100% with no lingering issues. That having been said, he's just awful, and Lassi Thomson has absolutely earned an extended look in Ottawa with how well he's played. Holden was the best of the non Chabot-Zub Dmen To start, so bump him up as a mentor with Thomson, so Lassi isn't right in the fire playing with Chabot right away.

Thing 2: Filip Gustavsson is obviously the guy. I know they'd sent him down to avoid potentially losing Forsberg on waivers, but come on now. It was as stupid then as It is now. Forsberg is terrible, so losing him would be no big loss, and even if they are that worried about it, just keep Forsberg and go 1-1-1 with Forsberg, Del Zotto and Shaw as spares.

Thing 3: now is the time to audition Tim Stützle down the middle. The Season has basically already been punted, so now is the time to experiment and see if it could work long term. I'm sure they'll make calls to add someone, but in the mean time it's the right time for Timothy. We've also had very little opportunity to see how Brady and Timmy work at even strength, and I'd like to see it.

I like this, and had many of the same thoughts, so naturally it'll never happen lol. I particularly agree on Thomson (I don't think his ELC can slide so it won't hurt keeping him up for a while) and especially Gustavsson (he's our best goalie, he deserves to be one of our 2 goalies all season, we should try to trade Forsberg if possible, but it wouldn't hurt to just waive him). I'm not sure if they'll try Stutzle up the middle (they like him on the wing for some reason) but I did like them putting him with Tkachuk against the Flames. Hopefully they at least try that for a while, to see if they work well together on opposite wings.
