Hopefully Bura sits in favor of Chiasson for game 5. I've been an advocate of playing Bura but he didn't nothing last night to show he belongs in the lineup right now. Eller's play has been perplexing too. So strong in games 1 and 2 but now he can't stay out of his own way. Not sure what to do with him. Drop him to the third line? Not too impressed with backstrom either but at least he had the mental toughness to try to play.
Eller is a very inconsistent player. He goes on a little run and then everyone falls in love him. But he has terrible stretches too, At times he looks no better than Burakovsky. He is pronbe ton taking dumb, lazy penalties. And sometimes he wants to carry the puck so much that he won't make the smart play.
