It also puts Forbort on the bench as a reserve. Not crazy about putting Poitras on the fourth line, but I do want to see what Lysell can do.

I totally agree with giving Lysell a 2 or 3 game stint to see how he fits in. Right now, I wouldn’t take Boqvist out of the lineup. I’m all for rotating Lauko, Steen, Brown, Poitras and Lysell. I just wouldn’t want to leave Fabian sidelined when he could be getting valuable minutes with Providence!

I didn’t mean to have Brown on the roster. You can remove him from that equation except for injuries.

Boqvist likely becomes a player who spells Heinen, JVR, Poitras, and Lauko while being in the lineup as much as any of them,

I do thinking Lysell deserves a shot if he continues to play like this. I’m actually more excited after these last 14 games since the Mouganel call out. I criticized Ryan for the comments, but it might have been the tough love that he needed,

On a side note. For as bad of a prospect system as Boston is supposed to have, they’ve completely redid Providence with prospects and I am seeing a few kids with NHL potential.

Lysell, Lohrei are being supplemented with Merkulov, Farinacci, Kuntar, Regula, Mitchell, and Callahan. The emergence of Brett Harrison getting playing time finally is also a positive development.

Two Id like to focus on that don’t get enough attention.

Alec Regula deserves call up consideration. The kid has been outstanding at Providence and should have passed Ian Mitchell. He is the best D man in the AHL. If there is a left side injury, Lohrei deserves the call up. If it’s right side, Regula.

If teams are watching Providence, I’d try to get a hold of Brett Harrison vs a throwaway pick. He’s starting to show really well after not getting much opportunity at the beginning of the season. Not much of a skater, but he’s passed Toporowski on the PP1 group and is getting some really playing time. That shot of his is fantastic. He’s not ready but I could see him moving up to a much more prominent role with Providence next year .
