Nurse needs to stop thinking his shit doesn't stink.
Bread Man, mangiapanie, will be a lock on your second line. Hyman will play third line mins in regular season, as a means to protect the post surgery and help in recovery. Oilers third line isn't a knock on Hyman skill, oilers have the ability to essentially create multiple second lines, because of the scorers they have.
