Another Challenge Cup game.

Brust should play to continue improving his fitness.

Absolutely.

Agreed - Brust Saturday, Rok Sunday

If Eberle is back Saturday do we have to sit someone with the return of Graham?

No because Deluca is suspended and you can replace them within the Import limit this season

Assuming Eberle is back:

Eberle-Hodgman-Armstrong - would reunite Eberle and Hodgman straight away, potential to put Dowd on there as well and reunite the whole line that seemed to have good chemistry early on and could then put Armstrong centering Connolly and Vallerand.
Dowd-Connolly-Vallerand - liked the look of this line in 19/20 when it had some outings as well as last week, would like to see them together again, definitely plenty of goal potential, maybe too loaded? Is that even a thing!
Latal-Oleksuk-Mosey - the faceoff and two-way play of Oleksuk and the pair of wheels on either wing together would be an energy line to say the least
Jono-ROTATE-Graham - can rotate in Hodgman, Armstrong, Connolly, or Oleksuk to center the 4th line

ASD-Todd
Schulze-Davey
Ellerby-Jones

Brust
Churchfield

If no Eberle:

Firstly, I forgot we had first choice on Shudra if required - not sure if we will call him up with him getting good minutes in Leeds.

So could be:

Dowd-Connolly-Vallerand
Latal-Hodgman-Armstrong
Jono-Oleksuk-Mosey
Shudra-ROTATE-Graham

Which would allow us to have 4 lines.

Brust and Stojanovic warming up. Think Churchfield’s with Leeds tonight.

Fairly even period. Their second came off Sam Jones. A fluke IMO and nothing Brust could do. Was ok from there on.
