Ahhh right right. They needed to clear space to get Joey up, but don’t need to change anything to send him back down. Duh. Because it’s not Jimmy that’s on IR.

That’s what I get for slamming out a post in 5 minutes during my lunch break.

I’m not sure that the tandem will have to stay the same for three games (assuming Howard isn’t injured badly). If they scoot MacDonald back down, they can slot Howard back in — they’ll just have to keep Rafalski and Draper on the IRs they’re on because of the time commitment.

I could be wrong, too, but I don’t think Rafalski’s inclusion on short-term IR has anything to do with Howard’s ability to get back into the lineup if he’s healthy.

Is it too vague to go with “The second time Ericsson goes -3 in a game?”

If so, how about four regulation losses.

Okay, I have to change my answer to an actual legitimate one if we’re talking prizes. I’m going to go with 12 games and when they come back home for that long stretch, he’s done. That’s probably way too long but Babs is patient.

My answer was sarcastic, but I do think Jonny’s early shifts are important for his usage tonight and thus his chances of actually impressing. If he sucks out of the gate and Babcock is forced to use him a lot less, Jonny’s got a steeper climb.

But realistically, he’s probably got until through the Coyotes game. After that, there’s a break that would allow Kindl and Salei to practice together and offer a convenient spooling up for a Kindl/Salei experiment. So five games for Jonny as a window, and given my level of optimism about him, he’ll only last that long.

If you’re talking out of the lineup on a regular basis, then I’m going to go with Petrella and say about 2 weeks. The Wings are starting quickly out of the gate, with 5 games in the first 8 days, so this will be a chance for Ericsson to show that he can play well consistently. However, unless he really turns things around, I don’t see how he remains in the lineup, especially if Kindl comes in and plays like he did in the pre-season.
