I know this isn't meant to be tonight's lineup, but just read Acciari and Nieto are injured. I'll be curious to see who they call up.

Joona Koppanen is the call up. I was also just wondering exactly how the lineup will look like once everyone is back from injury.

No, I know. I was just bringing up this news rather than creating an AGM for it lol

I'm surprised White wasn't the call up.

Colin White has been out with an injury for weeks.

Well I guess that makes sense then lol

I'm still a little pessimistic about our bottom 6 and 3rd pairing.
I think it's still possible to sign Ethan Bear, who I think would be an upgrade to Ruhwedel at RD3 to pair with Ludvig/Shea. Alternatively, Urho Vaakanainen has been a pretty effective shutdown defenseman so far, and trades with the Ducks have a decent track record recently.
On forwards, I'm a big fan of Justin Danforth in CBJ. I remember recently Sid calling him tough to play against.
Nashville also has a couple options that I think are solid. Tomas Novak is the favorite, but for cheaper options, you could do worse than Michael McCarron or Kiefer Sherwood.

I'm not pessimistic about the third pair, but I'm cautiously optimistic. I wouldn't be surprised to see Dubas make a move there though, especially with Pysyk going elsewhere.

As far as the bottom-six, I think it's a given that Dubas will have to address the scoring issue there. I wouldn't expect anything major because of the cap constraints, but I could see him making a slight upgrade there.
