00:00Did it seem like yesterday, did we get any more clarity on what's going to happen with Kulik,
00:04if he'll be in the lineup, like on a fourth line, or whether he won't be?
00:08That's where he was, you know, and that's where he's been.
00:13And, you know, Lindy Ruff, for the last two practices, he wanted to get a different look at some things,
00:17and it seems like maybe they're not going to go with what they went through the whole preseason.
00:23They're going to go with what we've seen the last couple of practices,
00:26which would be Norris on Thompson's line, and then Krebs going to where Norris was, not playing center.
00:34McLeod would move over to center, and Krebs would play on the wing.
00:40So that really is the only change that we've seen.
00:46Yeah, it looks like maybe Kulik's going to play with Carrick and Malenstein.
00:52You know, I just don't understand what you get out of that,
00:56but Lindy Ruff has it in his head that he's going to get something out of it.
01:00You don't like it for what reasons specifically, Paul?
01:03Because of, like, just the way that...
01:05Not playing with skilled guys, basically, you think?
01:07Yeah, exactly.
01:08And, you know, if you're going to have an energy line that plays the way that Carrick and Malenstein play,
01:15I think you've got to go with Kozak or Danforth.
01:19You know, they're going to fit there.
01:20You know, it's just not a fit for Kulik.
01:23It's not, you know, what the type of hockey he's going to play.
01:26Has he improved his defensive play?
01:28Yes, he has.
01:30Is he totally there yet?
01:33We'll see.
01:35Is he a good winger?
01:37Eh.
01:38He's a much, much better center.
01:41But if he's going to play wing, I just think, you know,
01:45you'd be better off flipping him and Krebs right now.
01:48Go on.
01:48Go on.
