Linemates for Suter and Parise?

[Mike]

According to early reports, Suter will be paired with Spurgeon on the blue line while Parise will enjoy the company of Koivu and Heatley.

I think this will work out ok for parise, but not so well for suter. Big difference in partnering with Spurgeon rather than weber.

If anything, this more likely helps Spurgeon rather than Suter.

I really don't think Suter is far behind Weber at all. Suter played more than Weber in all situations. Defensively you could definitely argue he is better than Weber.

I watched a lot of Predators games last year (mainly for rinne), and I don't see it that way at all. I suppose we'll get a better idea this year though.

Interesting pairing for Parise... I was thinking Heatley and Setaguchi... hmmm.
