Opportunity opens for Barron, or do we double shift McKegg?

[Valriera]

Hopefully not too bad Rooney is really important to this team

Barron will dress but it will almost certainly mean more lips.

Rooney has done a much better drop than I ever could have imagined. He’s really slotted in very well here. I hope this isn’t anything too serious.

seemed like he was messing with his eye or the area around his eye right before he went off the ice, right? Not good being the bottom six is shit to begin with but at least he and Reaves filled a role. That leaves basically Goodrow for the most part who can be counted on for something whatever that might be.

Barron is the answer. Kid is hungry and now he has a role! Do it kid!

[jsm7302]

Also, Gettinger is 6'6"?!?! Wow, didn't realize.

[RJWantsTheCup]

I would assume Barron fills Rooney's spot, but Brodzinski is practicing there today.

[Kevin]

Rooney's been solid.  They might miss him more than they miss Kakko.

[Cash or Czech]

Rooney gives me serious Blair Betts vibes sans face-off ability. Hope he gets better soon and that the injury isn't too serious.

does he? He may have another roll and perhaps some pasta while enjoying more games up in the pressbox based on today's practice lines.

Lots of guys on this team are big, and you'd never realize it. Chytil and Zib are both 6'2. Gauthier and Barron are 6'4. None of them play remotely like it.

Zibanejad plays very long in the middle when he’s at his best. Takes up a lot of space, covers a lot of ice with the speed as well.
