    Default Who to drop for Ristolainen?

    Ristolainen is off the IR. The obvious answer seems to be Duchene but I'm interested to hear what you think.

    The only thing remotely attractive about Duchene is he wins faceoffs from the RW. If I drop him, I don't have another guy who does that on a regular basis other than Miller who can't be expected to line up at centre for the Rangers for every game.

    Jesus...Duchene sucks.

    Well, the same question arises a couple of weeks later.

    Ristolainen is slotted as "IR" for me. Who should I drop to move him back into the line-up?

    Or, do I sit tight with 4 D and wait for Murray to come off the IR and move him into the line-up when the time comes?

    Team in signature.

    "TT" means Toffoli or Teravainen?
