Three guys out injured and that's our lineup? Awesome.

Give it up for the front office:

Yeah, that 4th line is solid. And to think we could still throw Abs or Draper in there if there's an injury.

Abs will be an every night guy once he's healthy, with a fully healthy team, the fight for the last spot will be between Eaves and Miller night in and out, with the edge going to Eaves in my mind...

I definitely prefer Eaves too but it seems like the coaches really like Miller. I'm sure they'll make a good decision if it comes down to those two.

dress miller as the 13th forward when it comes down to it, cause he can also play D if a Dman goes down.

I miss Justin Abdelkader. Not because I think the current 4th line isn't capable... but because I want to see him bang bodies and hit everything in sight.
