Justin Williams’ status for tomorrow’s game is uncertain, and his absence from practice today was indeed due to the hand injury he suffered last night. On the other side, both Willie Mitchell and Alec Martinez were full participants in practice today. Terry Murray said one of them might play tomorrow, but not both.
Why do they not bring someone up from manchester on emergency loan to put some kind of spark, never know what could happen look back to the simmer move, a million years ago,they had no one to play on the first line and stuck a callup there and the rest is history,lightning could strike twice hey

We already have, Lokti and Voynov, our best offensive and defensive players from manchester.
Now, you could argue for a guy like Nolan and demote Clifford, but I doubt Nolan will be the difference maker.
I would like to see a line of Richie-Lokti-Lewis. I think this line would be hungry, and would add more energy and spark than a call up from manchester.

I agree they have to make due with what they got. There is no silver bullet in Manchester.
Just more rookies not ready for the Show.

the D set up is nice. We have our best 6 forwards in the top 6. I like Brown on the left so Penner gets moved to make room. The bottom 6 is possibly the best combination we could ice. I like these lines

Not that it will matter
I suppose horrible was strong, but I am not a fan of the lines overall still. The #1 problem I have is consistency. Players are bouncing all over the place. I don't like Penner on the right side, even though Brown had one good game on the left. Stoll has shown nothing and Loktionov has been more active, while he hasn't produced either, he has been more creative and has a bigger drive to make things happen. I don't like Johnson on the third pairing. If we wanted more offense, and if the gun was to my head like it is to Murray's, I would be bumping the offensive defensemen up and just go with a Johnson-Doughty pairing for the long-term and give Voynov the green light behind them. Still, in the end, the most irritating thing is players are moving around way too much. I would be pissed if I was switched wings and linemates every single game.
I do like Stoll's line but Penner on the RW is bit of a head scratcher.
Not really. If we're trying to get more shots on net, then you have a better shooting angle if you shoot from your off-wing. It simplifies the game in the offensive zone. It's why Brown is so much more effective as a left wing.

I was merely wondering if Penner had ever played RW that's all.
