brickwall30 Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 (edited) So I know it's still a few weeks away but, seeing that henrique has more or less made a spot for himself on this team with his play the last few games, what are we going to do with all our centers once zajac and henrique come back. we have: 1) elias 2) zajac 3) josefson 4) carter 5) henrique I would assume elias moves back to LW, but he has been so good as a center I think that would be a tough decision. parise-henrique-kovalchuk elias-zajac-sykora zubrus-josefson-clarkson tedenby-carter-palmieri thoughts?

Devils Pride 26 Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 Keep Elias at center. See's the game better than anyone and great defensively. It's no coincidence his line is always the best counter attack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overtime98 Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 Zajac stays with Parise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njdevil26 Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 (edited) I don't see why anyone would want to break up the Zubrus-Elias-Sykora line... Parise and Kovy are going to have to learn how to play together. Kovy needs Zajac and Zajac needs Parise... Parise-Zajac-Kovalchuk Zubrus-Elias-Sykora Tedenby-Henrique-Clarkson Mills/Zharkov-Carter-Palmieri I left out Josefson because right now I don't see how he recovers and becomes a factor this season... but if he had to stay, I would have: Parise-Zajac-Kovalchuk Zubrus-Elias-Sykora Henrique-Josefson-Clarkson Tedenby-Carter-Palmieri/Mills/Janssen/Your mother Edited November 15, 2011 by njdevil26 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsfknnikp Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 Kovalchuk is too erratic for Parise. Kovy needs stability in Zajac. I don't think Parise needs Zajac. Here's how I see it as of today. If Henrique drops off, that changes things. 1A. Kovalchuk-Zajac-? 1B. Parise-Henrique-? 1C. Zubrus-Elias-Sykora 4. Clarkson-Carter-Tedenby Insert: Josefson, Palmieri, Zharkov If Janssen/Boulton plays, bump Clarkson to Line 1A or 1B. Palmieri/Zharkov sits.

hurricane1091 Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 Josefson should probably center the fourth line and Carter moves to the wing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masked Fan Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 I don't see why anyone would want to break up the Zubrus-Elias-Sykora line... Parise-Zajac-Kovalchuk Zubrus-Elias-Sykora Tedenby-Henrique-Clarkson Mills/Zharkov-Carter-Palmieri Parise-Zajac-Kovalchuk Zubrus-Elias-Sykora Henrique-Josefson-Clarkson Tedenby-Carter-Palmieri/Mills/Janssen/Your mother I like these lines. agree to never split up S-E-Z, except to maybe shake it up for a few games.= to see if anything MORE productive can happen, but those boys work it. I think K-Z-P will be deadly. I have been hoping Travis comes back post haste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jas0nMacIsaac Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Josefson should probably center the fourth line and Carter moves to the wing. Henrique is not staying center! Did this game not prove this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SterioDesign Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Parise Zajac Henrique Kovalchuk Josefson Clarkson Sykora Elias Zubrus Tedenby Carter Palmieri if that 2nd line would click then we'd have something serious and 4 good lines, would be hell for other teams to match up against us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quinn01 Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 IIRC Zajac around Xmas and Josefson...february I think I read? Other then JJ being back around February, anyone know the exact status of him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onddeck Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 wait yea whats the latest update on Zajac.. they're still saying christmas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nessus Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Parise Zajac Henrique Kovalchuk Josefson Clarkson Sykora Elias Zubrus Tedenby Carter Palmieri This makes most sense to me. I think these would be some really good lines, especially if Clarkson works out where he is here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
