My first thought after that odd man rush, pairing two players who can't play defense is a recipe for disaster!

Deboer apparently believes that putting two negatives together will create a positive.

dont you know we have the brightest coach in the league.. he makes the smartest decisions night in and night out

He doesn't have better options though. He either has to put Gelinas with Zidlicky or he can put Gelinas with Helgeson and I'm not sure that's a better pairing. Either that or you have to have someone playing their off side.

When Merrill comes back someone's playing on their off side regardless cause there'll be four lefties in the lineup again.  There's no reason not to have Zid with Larsson ES, and just have Gelinas and Hegelson be the third pairing with Gelinas getting his PP time.

They seem to do their best to avoid this situation though. Wouldn't be too surprised to see Gelinas sit when Merrill comes back. Not like he's been providing a ton of offense to offset his lackluster defensive pay lately.

Edit: Hey, we finally score a goal on a terrible mistake from a goalie!

Well Hegelson's gonna be the first guy to sit/be sent down so either way whether it's Merrill or Sal coming back it'll be 4 L-2 R.

Was a pretty tight game until the gift goal.

 

It's still a tight game :P  Just please Cory don't give that away...it's nice to actually have some other goalie make a puckhandling mistake against us.

That's most likely what will happen, but I would be ok with giving Helgeson a couple more games and going with:

Greene-Severson

Merrill-Zidlicky

Helgeson-Larsson
