Why bring in Ruzicka over Dube? A. You sending Dube down to make room? B. Dube is way better. You ant to try him out over Richardson? Whatever, but it’s not a scoring role.

Monahan has been one of the better forwards over the last few games IMO.

Valimaki from what I have been reading is waiver exempt. The guy needs to play whether that’s top line minutes in the ahl or at least third pairing here.

Dube is faster than ruzicka but he’s snake bitten. I said he should watch from the press box. Ruzicka has size at the center position. I like to see what that looks like.

Monohan hasn’t been one of the better players. He’s slow and lacks confidence. Beast on the boards? I don’t know about that. He’s been more noticeable with his physical effort but it’s not compensating for what he used to bring when healthier. I appreciate his spirit but his play is uninspiring. Good guy bad luck. Time and injuries catch up to most if not all pros.
