‘Krueger continues to deploy Cody Eakin – generally with Tobias Rieder and Kyle Okposo, though Casey Mittelstadt was given an opportunity during Sunday’s game against Philadelphia – with high regularity. Not only is the third line consistently drawing defensive zone matchups against better competition, they are playing less than 12 minutes a night at 5-on-5 – around the ice time we would see from Colorado’s Nazem Kadri, Tampa Bay’s Tyler Johnson and the New York Rangers’ Chris Kreider.’
