  1. This is huge for us, but our 2nd line desperately needs help with malkin out l. Kevin Hayes is not the answer. Shit have Rackell center the 2nd until malkin comes back.

  2. When we get Malkin back centering Brazeau and Mantha, and Sid with rusty and raks, I think we’ll see a much better team on the ice. They’ve been trying some guys up and down the lineup. Koivunen has just been snake bit. Hayes isn’t the top 6 guy he was before. I think when healthy, this team is a playoff team.

  3. I thought Rakell was another 3-4 weeks away last week?

    Also he should slot on the top line right, no reason not to?

  4. Woah, this is some good news. I heard he’d been skating and doing some shooting and stickhandling with coaches, but I didn’t expect this news.
