Invoking the spirit of...

That works too. Just get Helm away from Datsyuk.

I haven't seen enough of Nosek to bump him up to the third and while I understand the whys of having Sheahan on the fourth... I think it does him a disservice. ...but until Miller is back, I get it.

100 % agree, Helm's brain can not keep up with his feet and Pav thinks 9 plays ahead of the game every time. It doesn't work.

I would really mix it up

Z - D - Sheahan ( don't care if he's a center )

Abby - Larkin - Gus

Tatar - Helm - Richards

Glendenning, Jurco, Pulk, Miller, Nosek, Boyd Devereaux etc.....

I understand the way the league works now - you want a net-front presence on each line. At this point, I'd much rather try Jurco or Pulkkinen over Helm on that second line. Blashill was playing with the idea of Larkin/Datsyuk/Tatar taking turns as the NFP on that line. Try it with some of the others. Helm in the top-six drives me nuts.

Come on guys enough of trying to push for Jurco in a top 6 role. He can't even produce anything going against the leagues 4th liners and bottom pairing D.

Suggesting Jurco is more because of his size, and because Helm has hands of stone. Jurco can't seem to adjust to the pace of the NHL. It's more that I'd rather see someone other than Helm in a top-six role.
