I’m guessing when Holloway comes back Stenberg is the odd man out as it stands..

They might send him down as the most convenient move, BUT . . .

There is a sizable list of fourth line, depth, and waiver wire players accumulating on the roster, partly due to the injuries. I expect the GM office will do their job, keep their eye on the ball, and move guys who are not projected to be part of the solution (core) moving forward. It's not that hard.

So whether or not guys like Stenberg, Dvorsky Snuggerud, Breggren, even Toropchenko [all young] stick around is on them. If they individually show they belong in the NHL I'd bet they stay in the NHL.

Won’t be Torpo. Just signed an extension. He’s a key cog

what's the chances that the Hawks try to get some skin back even tho that Bedard injury was a fluke play last game? I'm going to be looking for Walker to really show me something because Joseph and Torpedo were making stuff happen on that 4th line. Our 3rd line being the young guys is a fun idea, but if our 4th line can't fill in like it was it could be disastrous. I'm hoping Walker proves me wrong but I don't think he fits the current landscape of the Blues makeup now that the young guys are in the lineup.

I think Bedart said the injury occurred before Schenn hit him so I don't think there is anything to prove on that point. National TV game and 2 wins in a row- so we will probably suck.

Yep. Two whammies against the Blues.

Just saw that Binner is getting the start. I’ve been one of his biggest critics these past few years and have absolutely hated the undeserved starts he was gifted in the past 5 weeks or so but I’m ok with this.

To me it’s still Hofer’s net but Binnington’s performance against Montreal on Saturday was that good. It wasn’t just a shutout, it was easily one of his best regular season performances of his career. Incredible save after save all while looking calm, cool, and collected (the opposite of what we’ve seen from him most games).

I reeeeaallly hope he doesn’t go back to (bleep) Binner……

Welcome back Walker

TV related: For people like me that do not have a streaming service with TNT, Sling tv (orange), has an option for 24 hour pass for 4.99.

Double-header, so 2 games for 5.00 is not bad.

Game doesn't start until 10 pm ET. Sheeesh.

[Russdv14]

What’s late start!

Wayne hasn’t shaved either

Binnington better have a good game tonight and not disappoint everyone

[hotrivets]

S[top] T[hose] F[raudulent] U[tterances] and get the game on. I normally like these guys but save it for the intermission.

[HighStick]

What is going on with the game time?
Now it's like a West Coast game.

[tubastarr]

Game could have already started if they’d stop the talking heads and post game [nonsense].
