Well, he isn't coming up to sit so I expect we'll see him play. Who's out and how long with Simon stay? Here's hoping he cracks the top 4 quick and adjusts well. They could really use any sort of bump.

It would be really weird to call him up just to send him back down again this season, right? But it's also weird that the GR playoff run is being upended by taking him out of their lineup. The timing on all of this is just weird.

I think fans are overestimating the importance of a GR run. They are not the premier team, simply a feeder for players to play until the big club is ready for them.

What matters at this point is simply getting the Wings into the playoffs, because being the first one to miss is worse than anything else at this point.

I hope Edvinsson is playing. It would be nice.

Isn't it too much pressure on a kid to have expectations to save the season?

Can he play center?
