2. From what I understand Palmieri has been taking a lot of shots, but they're poor quality. Everyone is hoping that full roster + healthy Nico = Palmieri playing well, but if that doesn't happen do we start to panic? He just hit 29 and goal scorers typically don't age well.
3. Bratt's been criminally underrated for a long time. His presence on the ice is such a calming factor during the game. Also doesn't hurt that he found immediate chemistry with Hughes and Johnsson. I agree, we need to lock him up long term asap.
4. Yegor came out flying his first couple games but as soon as the lines got juggled he has seemed lost in the shuffle in most of the games. I think him finding a stable spot in the lineup will help his game come out.
