Can Rooney be a Barclay Goodrow type of player and fit with Backlund and Coleman? That’s probably what they’re going for again. They tried that with Pitlick last year but it didn’t work out.
It might not look great but Sutter also dominated the 2012 playoffs with guys like Lewis and King in his top 9 and Nolan, Richardson, and Fraser on his 4th line so who knows. Just work hard, kill penalties, be defensively responsible and hope for the best I guess.
