Voice is sounding a wee bit rough this morning bud.
Re: Virtanen, he didn't show enough. He had a few good moments but a fair number of bad moments too and others did a better job. He got a lot of games to try and prove himself and improve himself and it didn't happen. I don't wish anyone ill by nature so wherever he ends up and whatever he does I wish him well.
The lineup may have some changes. I didn't hear if Foegelle was injured but he and Samorukov were not playing. I thought Samorukov may have been banged up a bit so they just held him a day (and needed to test a few others first) and there is still today's game against Seattle. Foegelle I have no idea why he wasn't on the ice but it looked like Uncle Kenny was talking to him so he may be making a move or be part of a package. If he is or isn't we'll see and, again, wish nothing but the best to the player no matter where he is. If he's with the Oilers it helps the team.
I think Hamblin outplaying Virtanen got him cut. I hope they keep Foegele cause he's a playoff guy but I trust Holland and crew. If they trade him I'm sure they'll make it worth while..

Take care all.
I had a feeling Jake would get cut.
