Default Do Bennett & Wotherspoon debut Saturday?

NHL debut for Bennett. Season debut for Wotherspoon.

See no reason why they don't. Must be some players on the Flames that could benefit from a rest.

I'd think so, our place in the standings are set. Play Ortio as well.

Potter could benefit from some time off from warming that bench.

Don't see why not. Seeing Bennett's debut would put the icing on the cake for this unbelievable season!

Can't we still get home ice away from the Nucks?

Oilers beating Van and us beat Winnipeg gives us home ice advantage so not entirely meaningless

That said after tonight's game I'm sure a guy like hurdler could use a break. And our D can play a lot less minutes.

Put them in and Ortio too. If we need them it's better for them to have some experience

Would certainly rest
- Hiller
- Hudler
- One of Wideman/Russell/Brodie - probably Russell
- Johnny

Put in all the healthy guys.

Ortio may not be 100%

I'd still play Hiller.

Realistically if we're looking at resting as many bodies, Shore, Bennett and Wotherspoon can slot in. That way you could give Hudler, another forward and maybe Wideman or Brodie a rest while Potter plays a little bit more than he does today.

Is this true? If so, you better believe Hartley is gonna ice the best lineup possible.

I was against Bennett slotting in vs the Kings, but for sure he should play against the Jets!

Ortio is not 100% so not sure I would play him.

Sitting Johnny would be interesting. From a good for a team perspective you would rest him. From I want him to win Calder, maybe you put him in to pad some stats.
