Ehh... Wait another month to see who else is broken.
What D is injured besides Beaulieu?
Sami Niku who was expected to take a role with the Jets this season has been injured thus far for most of this season. He was just cleared to play for our AHL team so I expect him to come up soon.
Logan Stanley, even though I loathe him, should be getting close to more time on the Jets, but he's injured for a while too.
Beaulieu just got out of a non contact jersey.
Byfuglien needs no further elaboration.
And the rest, I'm still feeling the gaping hole that Trouba, Myers and Chiarot left so our D corps feels worse of than it may actually be to me. Pionk has been better than I expected, Heinola was sent down to the AHL but was good for a young kid just drafted, Bitetto has been... just... There. Sbisa has shown that he knows how to hit (and injure our own players in practice) but I haven't seen enough to make any assessment. Given that he was on waivers though... And Dahlstrom has been like a younger worse Myers. He's just some tall guy who's been simply there because we have no one else. Morrissey has been good but he can't do everything. Poolman has kind of picked up Chiarot's place but that's really not saying much. He's alright and at least has a little more experience with the team. And Kulikov, candidate for the "most likely to be bought out" has been playing too many minutes for his level of play. ie. not that great.
But that's basically what we have to work with so we just blender it all in and play with results each night.
Add the potential missing of Little tonight with Laine out and Lowry Suspended... I just feel this team is missing tons of pieces on the ice right now. Mostly on Defence as I feel our current lineup is a patchwork of players who have been put together out of panic rather than planning.
But tonight is another game, so who knows what will happen?
EDIT: I forgot about Poolman and Kulikov.
