More line juggling. What a joke. Isn't it obvious that Heatley needs to be with playmakers? Kyle Brodziak just isn't a third line center. I certainly hope this doesn't continue. Give Granlund the third line, with Heatley on it, and leave it at that. If you want to rotate Clutterbuck in and PMB out, so be it. I wouldn't do that, but so be it. But this juggling centers. Why such a high regard for Kyle Brodziak? There's no damn way this team makes the playoffs with Kyle Brodziak as its third line center. Never has happened and it never will.

Grandlund, Heatley and PMB were all -3 against Chicago so it's not surprising Yeo is going to do some tinkering with the line. Yeo doesn't juggle lines anymore than Lemaire use to so it's just something for fans to whine about. PMB needs an extended visit to the press box because he is bringing nothing to the team right now.

Welcome back Cal, the current daisy's on the ice sure miss you. There isn't a solid checker amongst them. Take a game or two getting in game shape and then let it rip with reckless abandon like you always do. Doesn't someone make a pad to protect that thigh area from hard hits? Unless I'm mistaken Cal's been out for a couple other thigh bruises previously...p.s. Wild.....send PMB packing, nice guy but that isn't why he's employed here

I hope that Clutterbuck's return means PMB will be either sitting out or traded.

@brianhohlen Lemaire? Who cares about Lemaire? He infuriated fans (and players) with his line juggling for much of his tenure here. Name one current powerhouse that juggles lines like they do here in Minnesota. Name one. Do the Hawks? Do the Bruins? Do the Canucks? Do they CONSTANTLY juggle lines??? And as for your +/-, that might be the dumbest statistic in sports. It means nothing. BTW: How's all that line juggling worked out so far??? Where are we today, thanks to it? :) Nice theory, sport.
