The curious case of Jenna Buglioni still has me scratching my head — why can’t she seem to get on the ice? Seems like the best time to play the kids:
At this point in the season, and with the injuries maybe it’s time to give the fourth-line players a little extra playing time. The fourth line includes first-round draft pick, Jenna Buglioni who played only 1:08 in the most recent game against the Fleet. That’s the least amount of ice time any player had in that game followed by fellow fourth-liner Marah Wagner with 1:25. Brooke Bryant had the most ice time of the three fourth line players with 2:18 which means that the fourth line had a total of 4:51 of playing time combined.
Buglioni is especially interesting in this situation because even if she has failed to perform as the organization would like in previous games, this would be the perfect time to let her work on that. There isn’t a lot to lose standings-wise, and it would make sense that she would benefit from more ice time.
