Have St.Pierre play D, send back Lashoff! Him AND his off the glass pass giveaways! :P

Doesn't that leave the B's with just three centers?

Certainly don't want to complain about a team playing as good as the B's have this season so categorize this under nitpicking but....

Sobotka and St. Pierre have both been far more impressive than Noke this year. Noke has not looked nearly as productive as he did last year when he was a solid 4th line grinder. This year he hardly does anything noticable.

update on bergeron today??

They only had 12 healthy forwards last night, if two are sent down to Providence and Lucic comes back the B's are still down to 11. Are they just being sent back so they can get some minutes for the Baby B's tonight?

The Bruins cannot send Nokkie down to Providence, as he would have to clear waivers. St. Pierre and Sobotka don't have that problem.

Didn't both St. Pierre and Sobotka play last night. Even if Looch is ready to go that still leaves a spot open. Who is taking that spot, Karsums?
