Making a change in the lineup after a loss is the easiest way to get a guy in. If Pelts isn't playing tonight I doubt he gets in the lineup. Just another player Sutter will refuse to play who will be sent down and next day he will complain about lack of skill while Lucic continues to get top 6 minutes.
I think the mistake was giving him the extension before seeing how he meshed with this new core, it doesn't seem to be a fit.
At least Vladar starts tonight.
