[News] Troy Brouwer out "week to week"

[FBI]

For the love of God, get the power play going, so we never have to see Brouwer on it again. 4th line and PK role for Brouwer fits him perfectly for where he's at now.

That's a little different then I wish he'd get stuck in a snow bank

We will see how much we will miss him now

But Bennett is usually the one in the box.

I'm amazed flames never called up anybody with Brouwer going out. Nothing against Hathaway but he should be on the 4th line. There has to be a RW on the farm that has some skill, that can at the very least, be given a try.

[killer_carlson]

Agreed.

This is the opportunity to bring a skilled player up to play on the 3rd line with Bennett and Jankowski. You can give them a shot without risking the room being upset.

[bigrangy]

Give Shinkaruk one more shot maybe? Not really doing much of anything in the A but I thought he looked real good when he was up for a few games.

[killer_carlson]

I think it's time we see what Klimchuk can do.

[Ozy_Flame]

Only good natural RW is Spencer Foo. Not sure he's ready for the. If show yet. Possibly Poirier too? But he shoots left. Either way, both players are more offense in nature so it may be worth a shot. Could horribly backfire too.

[Enoch Root]

The way Jankowski and Bennett are currently playing, the last thing they are going to do is throw an AHLer on their line.

I am sure Treliving would love to acquire someone that can help that line, but it's going to be tough.

We are lousy with Centres. Swing one over and move one in.

From Post 54 in this thread:

Hard to hide from Brouwer's stats.

Three regulars have an up tick playing with Brouwer

Matt Stajan - +4.52 CF%
Michael Stone - +1.27 CF%
Curtis Lazar - +.33 CF%

Those that struggle with him ...

Monahan -12.8
Frolik -12.3
Bennett -9.9
Giordano -8.4
Hamilton -8.3
Jankowski -7.9
Gaudreau -6.4
Backlund -4.4
Hamonic -4.3

Looking at the numbers, do you still think that they haven't been playing with AHL level talent already?

I know everyone loves to hate on Brouwer, but he isn't AHL talent.

Also, that is completely beside the point with respect to my comment that you quoted. There is no way the organization is going to bring up a guy like Foo or Shinkaruk to play with Jankowski and Bennett right now.

That would not be a solution to their problems.

So what you're saying is that theres a need to put all Calgary Transit operators on high alert? People get hit by C-Trains in this City all the time...

Its a tragedy of our times but I'm just sayin'....

He'd probably break the train.

Anyways, all jokes aside one of the things that really drives me nuts is that I really, really want to like Troy Brouwer but he just never gives me the opportunity. Thats really selfish of him.

I see his speed is about the same.

JK - I'm not a Brouwer hater.

Lazar-Stajan-Brouwer likely to be the 4L tomorrow. Can't see him returning to the 3L. Might see Lazar take a run with Bennett & Jankowski if/when Versteeg comes back though.
