Hey guys, scoring cats in sig, and I just need it for this week. Salo has been doing well and Tampa Bay is high flying, but so is Pittsburgh and Kennedy was put on Malkin's line. Reason I just need it for this week is transaction limits, get more transactions after this week. Both have 2 games left this week, and they are replacing Burns on IR but position doesn't matter. Think Kennedy sticks with Malkin for at least two games?
If position doesn't matter I'd rather have the forward, so with that said I would choose Kennedy, greater chance to succeed for the two remaining games he has this week.
Going with the forward is typically my train of thought as well...the problem is Kennedy is seeing like 13 minutes or lower a night which is pretty low.
Haven't been keeping up to date with the line combos but if Kennedy is on Malkin's line at least on even strength then that's a good enough gamble. It's not like Salo is really getting a ton of points peripheral wise anyway.
