Rybinski was sent back to Hershey at the conclusion of the Boston game. One more player needs to go for OV and Eller to both come back, and both are on the trip to Toronto.

We better get back to the heavy forechecking that was working so well before. This 15-18 shots on goal won't cut it at all.

OV is in, no Eller. And Matthews is out, again.

Sucks for Lapierre, but he regressed from last season, and Eller is a really known quantity at 3C. When guys go back to the minors after a significant period with the big club, things can go one of two ways. They can sulk and sometimes lose focus, or they can work to get back, and maybe dominate in the minors because they've been playing at a higher level of competition. I have to believe that Hershey will insert Lapierre as a top-6 center, tell him to drive play and be ready to be the first forward back when injury or some other circumstance necessitates a callus.
