I generally don't lose much sleep over the 12th forward either, but he is -8 over the last 17 games. 1G and a +1 against ARI, and -9 with no points in the other 16 games.

So the team is starting every game, down half a goal. That is not something that we can just say, well, it's the 4th line and 12th forward, no big deal. It has gotten to the point where it IS a big deal.

And the killer is that there is a very good replacement eating popcorn, in Duehr.

IMO, this issue has degraded to the point where it does warrant conversation.
