It may get Dawes going enough so we can dump him for a pick. I think we will see:

Naslund-Gomez-Zherdev
Voros-Dubi-Fritche
Dawes-Drury-Cally
Orr-Betts-Sjostrom

I hate to play Drury on the third line, but the fact that you can't break up that second line leaves little room to maneuver and get production. Cally can finish and I think this would even out the physicality in the line up a little although that third line still looks a little weak. Dawes can't look invisible again, but I think playing with a guy like Drury could get him going in the right direction, hockey at this level is mostly about who you play with because they all need to be pretty good to get to the NHL. If dawes gets ice time with a drury I think good things could happen. My view on the Lines:

dawes scored 14 goals last year, mike york had more his rookie year, not saying dawes cant be a nice scorer, but just b/c someone scored in juniors and the ahl doesn’t mean anything til he puts up numbers in the nhl

All your analysis shows me is that neither dawes or Prucha deserve a place in the current ranger lineup! When you roll the picture back to last season it was Dawes who jumpstarted Prucha with pinpoint setup passes in the few games they played together. When it comes to passing in the offensive zone, there is absolutely no question Dawes has it all over Prucha. Don't get me wrong; if Prucha miraculously returns to his 30-goal form, he'd be a keeper. What he is at the moment (as unfortunately is also true of Dawes to this point) is irrelevant to the Rangers' early season success.
