'We’re still trying to find exactly where the best fit for him is.” Dave Tippett still doesn’t have a sense of what Andreas Anthanasiou's strengths are or where he fits into the EdmontonOilers lineup. (By SportsnetSpec)
Ennis is “a veteran player who’s been around the league a long time,” head coach Dave Tippett said after Sunday’s scrimmage. “He’s played with and against good players and he’s not intimidated. He’s a smart player. Plays the game efficiently. He knows when to make the right play, and when you have to move on and try something simpler.
Athanasiou hasn’t been around for long — just two points in nine games for Edmonton — and Tippett still doesn’t have a sense of what the player’s strengths are or where he fits into his lineup. There is a special pressure playing in the top-six of an NHL team, one that is even more intense when your centreman’s name is McDavid or Draisaitl.
