As someone who has blown ACL and LCL I’ve been trying to preach how much Dach will need this entire season to recover.
Maybe we keep him at wing until Laine is back, put them together on a rehab line and keep them very sheltered. (In jest we can add RHP for a full rehab line, although I agree that I’m not sure who he bumps out of the line up)
That’s being said he has no business on the top line or PP right now.
Having seen Hughes play several games in Laval, I totally agree with Arpon. MAG is wrong on Hughes. He has played amazing since coming over from Switzerland.
**MAILBAG QUESTION - hi Arpon and Marc Antoine. Founding member, og podcast supporter and first time question asker! I read in Arpons article a quote from Marty on Slaf getting benched, “I was annoyed, a lot of the guys on the bench were annoyed, too”. This quote isn’t incendiary but beneath lies a subtle element of Marty not having the confidence to have his own opinion as the Strong Man at the helm. I feel like this is a symptom of the losing losing record, but have you noticed this as well? Is this just due to the team not winning or do you think that as a coach, Marty might be having some serious misgivings about his ability to coach in the NHL now that the comfortable “learning” process is giving way to “progress”? Thanks. I love the show, you two are great despite not being from Newfoundland (neither am I, but I know where it is).
Messieurs, les titres c’est A+. De grosses félicitations.

"Not half stupid" is my normal morning mantra.

Arpon with the reverse curse on Condotta!
Marc Antoine is a prophet - Barron is in for Struble tonight!
That's not a bad suggestion, putting Dach back at Centre on third line. Might be the best solution here.
