Ryan Poehling On Second-Line Duty In Thursday's Game
Montreal Canadiens forward Ryan Poehling has a chance to skate on the second line in Thursday's matchup against Chicago, with the team having suffered a number of injuries. Christian Dvorak (lower body) was the latest victim of the injury bug in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to Tampa. Artturi Lehkonen and Jake Evans are also on the line. Poehling has produced only four points with 22 shots in 13 games this season, but he will now have a better opportunity to impress. The 22-year-old has averaged a measly 11:22 of ice time for the season, and he will definitely see the ice a lot more as the second-line center. Poehling sits on the first power-play unit as well.
