So add Peluso for Hathaway gets us a lot slower and marginally less offensive. Done to get tougher I guess and maybe more fresh on a back to back?
Add Smith and the goaltending gets markedly worse. They want to give Smith a way to work himself out of his age I guess. And back to back reasons
Sub Stone in for Andersson and the Defense moves the puck worse. Maybe teach Rasmus a lesson and get a fresh body out there because of the back to back.
Not sure there's a direct game benefit to be had here.
