Line Combos: Fritshce/Voros potentially in for Prucha/Korpedo

[silverfish]

Prucha comes in, puts up 5 points in 9 games, gets scratched.

Voros comes in, takes 3 **** penalties, still plays.

Really?

it's dumb cause we all know Prucha and Korps are better players but they do have to get some trade value going for the others so I understand

they can't sit forever

well if it comes down to making a difference on the cap at the deadline then they may but in reality that won't happen . They are still good depth players

An important clarification to my previous post: I originally thought Petr Prucha and Lauri Korpikoski would again be scratches tomorrow, but it was actually Aaron Voros and Dan Fritsche who left the ice last at practice, signaling they’d be scratches tomorrow. If that’s the case, Prucha would be on a line with Brandon Dubinsky and Nikolai Zherdev, and Lauri Korpikoski would skate with Chris Drury and Nigel Dawes.

But it's awful that he's singling out two players after that Pitt game. He should just scratch everyone.

I don't understand what Gomez and Nassy are doing wrong. Nassy has the most goals and Gomez is second in scoring. Not to mention Gomez has missed a handful of games. If they weren't producing, they should definitely sit but both played well in the last game against the Ducks. Both players came up big in the 3rd period when the game was tied 2-2. Unless Gomez has some type of injury, he should play.

Prucha has scored 32 goals in 161 games. Even if he wanted to be traded. Who is going to want him? I think Renney has been more than fair with Prucha.
Fritche is a young 2nd rounder. Big kid. I would like to see him play on a more consistant basis over Prucha. He could play center or LW.

Voros and Korpikoski is tough though. But Renney made a fair statement about Voros as well. That for him to play he needs to find his game that he had in the beginning of the season. I also expected more from Dubinsky. Maybe they should try that PS line again, IDK.

I think Prucha is gone after this season anyway. He's a RFA but I don't see Slats offering him anything.

Sam should pay for my medical bill after that scare.

Andrew Gross is contradicting Sam's post:

The forward lines in front of Valiquette will most likely be this:
Nigel Dawes-Chris Drury-Lauri Korpikoski
Markus Naslund-Scott Gomez-Ryan Callahan
Fredrik Sjostrom-Blair Betts-Colton Orr
Aaron Voros-Brandon Dubinsky-Nikolai Zherdev

Which means Petr Prucha and Dan Fritsche are the likely scratches.
