Duh! I didn't even think of that. Still though, why not put Shannon there?

WTF? Poopy.

Donovan was clearly just filling in for Fisher, who was nursing a few 'bumps and bruises' (already). That will never be a real line in the regular season. You gotta love the guy, but Donovan is a bottom 6 player, through and through.

he will be forced out of our bottom 6 eventually with the emergence of our prospects, love everything you bring Donovan, but the young blood will win out eventually.

Yup. Skates fast, hits hard, scores little. Nothing like Fisher. Sens updates for Thursday via TSN's Ice Chips - Page 2 455378

I see your man-crush on Fisher is fading.

The importance of that line clicking (Foligno - Shannon - Cheechoo I think?) takes front stage right now -especially in the last practices before the real thing. That would be my thought anyway. Not sure why Neil isn't there and Dono on line 4, but it might still be about chemistry.

Man, I love how versatile Shannon is -- and it's amazing how much faith CC puts in him: 2nd line winger last year, 3rd line centre this year, 1st unit PP QB both years.

I can't stop raving over this guy lately. I know he's small, but wow. I think he'll be battling Regin for 2nd line centre duties in short order, to be honest, unless Regin and Fisher can maintain that pre-season magic early in the season. Still, Regin with Foligno and Cheechoo makes all kinds of sense, too -- it's pretty unusual to insert a rookie into line 2 duties right off the hop. Usually, you have to pay your dues and work your way up in the roster.

As everyone's been saying, tho' -- nice to have options.

Man Rooney, you said it. Options are really nice to have - especially after a couple of years where there really weren't many. I've loved that little monkey Shannon since the first shift he took - and even after that tool concussed him. Talk about a guy who brings it with speed every night. I love it.

And hockey smart. Very smart. He needs to be, being the size he is.

I'm convinced the lines will change once this Michalek-Spezza tandem has run its course. Imo the lines by December will look like this:

Kovalev-Spezza-Fisher
Michalek-Regin-Alfredsson

Personally, I like that setup a lot.

Two danglers / puck-handlers who are not particularly strong defensively, together on one line? I dunno. Maybe it's just me, but I think you keep two apart, 5-on-5.

it's really great especially after seeing Nycholat has been waived again, man what a steal of a deal BM made here.

I predict that any line with Fisher on it will have run its course long before a line with Michalek.

I'm supposed to agree that Michalek should be busted down to the second line while Fisher moves up to the first? Will do. Sens updates for Thursday via TSN's Ice Chips - Page 2 301182

I am all for leaving the Kovy-Regin-Fisher line as it is until they have stopped producing for a great period of time.

Yeah good point. I guess it doesn't really work, but I think Kovalev's defensive shortcomings are way overblown and Spezza has upped his presence in that end.
