Quick Strikes: Lightning prospect Nolan Foote named captain of the Kelowna Rockets

Cedric Paquette has missed the start of the season due to an injury. But according to the latest reports, he’s close to a return to the line-up. Geo looks at the options for who will be replaced. [Raw Charge]

With all of that said, I think he’s kept himself in a fine position to remain in the lineup on the third line. Replacing Joseph with Paquette would mean that Verhaeghe would be moved up to the third line. While that might be beneficial for Verhaeghe going forward, I don’t think at this moment that he’s better than Joseph in that spot.
