Good news for Addy as we were down to 12 forward bodies last night. Probably good news for Poirier as well as he seems a bit lost when he doesn't have Baertschi in the lineup with him. Which I will again preface with it's only his first year so I do understand it, but he's been a different player with the loss of Baertschi. Almost a loss of speed and offense and going to a more physical style. He also failed to score a point in the games Baertschi was gone too.
Same deal with Reinhart, with Granlund back he had a 3 game point streak. Since he's been gone, same issues as before. Having Granlund down for a bit maybe will start sparking his offense again. Or at least that's the hope I'm going to hold on to.
