Ok, so we all know that he\'s going to get a look on CLS top line but... I was watching his exit interview and it sounds like he has a pretty heavy heart leaving OTT.

Bottom-line: Is he a must start right away or will he take some time getting settled?


I\'m in a heated battle to sneak into the play-offs so every goal, assist, etc. counts. I\'m trying to decide who to sit Saturday between these guys and I need GOALS(I have to sit two of them):

Vermette, Bolland, Kobasew, Booth (ribs)

Thoughts?

I would sit Vermette and Booth. I think it will take a while for him to adjust to the Columbus system; Booth is fighting a rib injury by the looks of it. Nuff said!

Karma +1. Thanks for the input.

I\'m just having a hard time swallowing sitting the guy who has a shot at centering Nash and Huselius! But they are playing Detroit...

Doesnt matter if they were playing the 1970\'s Canadiens. You play Vermette and ride him to the bank. They didnt get him to center the third line. Who do you think they will play ahead of him? Maholtra? No shot! Sit Bolland and Booth. Vermette is a very good player and he has been hot. After 7 points in his first 37 games, he has gotten 20 in his last 27 games. and is a +4.
