Ondrej Palat Replacing J.T. Miller On Tampa's Top Line
6 years agoTampa Bay Lightning left wing Ondrej Palat will likely line up alongside Steven Stamkos and Nikita Kucherov on the team's top line Thursday against Vancouver, with head coach Jon Cooper starting the line juggling already. Palat will be replacing J.T. Miller who has to settle for a place on the fourth line. Miller's owners shouldn't feel too down though, as Miller looks set to continue on the team's first power-play unit. Palat and Miller both finished pointless in Tampa's first game of the season at the weekend, a 2-1 shootout win over Florida. Against the Canucks, the team's offense will also be boosted by the return of Tyler Johnson (upper body).
