Rittich with the shutout!

But seriously, the fact that Brett Ritchie was the RW on the Gaudreau and Monahan line for most of the game after Simon was promoted (following his healthy scratches) and then benched for his awful turnover...

I'm generally a Ward and Treliving supporter but this game was a cry for help.

Mantha out of DET, or a handful of Nashville players would all be huge upgrades for this team. Doing nothing but expecting this lineup formation with Simon/Leivo/Ritchie/whoever to help that line is ridiculous. It's clearly not happening.

At the very least with how useless Tkachuk has been lately, why not go back to a top 9 of:

Gaudreau - Monahan - Lindholm
Tkachuk - Backlund - Mangiapane
Lucic - Bennett - Dube
