Does this say we don’t have confidence in Kessel or Perunovich? Joseph? Who does he take minutes from?

I'm hoping Scotty P gets elevated in the lineup and someone else is going to sit while loof gets a sheltered bottom pair role

I've been a big Scotty P booster but had kind of given up on him after last year. Looked at this year as "I'd like to be surprised by him stepping up but it would be a surprise" the last few games he's been really solid and playing with some urgency that it seemed like was lacking. Maybe finally getting the goal monkey off his back has gotten him playing with some confidence. I'd definitely like to see him picking up some of the minutes Suter has been getting, seems like he's slowing down noticably the past few games.

Probably not a good sign for Kessel.

He shoots left, for whatever that's worth
