Give Krebs a Cookie 🍪

[Porous Five Hole]

The top six is not good enough as constructed.  SDS shield your eyes cuz Krebs is not your boy.  Here comes an idea to shake things up.  
 

It is time to move Krebs (the plugger we wish Cozens would be) to 3C. His play deserves it.  
Push McLeod to 2C for the time being. Push Cozens to wing on the top six  (there’s a thread about this). Repurposing our 7MM man to figure his stuff out could save our season.
 

Continuing to roll out Cozens on PP1 and C2 is not working.  Let Krebs (whose play as a guy who gives a crap) get promoted and promoting McLeod  to 2C is the better path forward then rolling out the ghost of “Cozens past” eating minutes where he’s not an offensive threat. 

The Sabres have be bold here.  No fan base  has been as patient as this fan base. It is time to not be patient and reward the players like Krebs who show their willingness to win despite the fact that they are not a first line player.  
 

I’m drunk and Cozens is not a top six center. Fix it!!

I suggested something similar, but it was more of a straight up swap of 4C with 2C.  @Porous Five Hole's idea actually keeps Cozens in the top six which is different from my suggestion.  I think either is worth trying.

Let's see what practice lines look like the next few days.

It could be just that, for whatever reason, Quinn and Cozens aren't clicking this year; maybe swap 2RW with 3RW, swapping Zucker and Quinn and keeping NAK on 2LW.

if you give Krebs a cookie, he's probably going to want a glass of milk

@xzy89c1 you gave me a thumbs down, but this is exactly what happened.

I think we're going to love Cozens at wing.
