I think at this point I'd take Rourke over Tarnstrom or Grebeshkov until Greene gets back. Both of those guys (Tarnstrom/Grebeshkov) seem to have their biggest value being on the PP and we have plenty of guys that can handle those minutes. Certainly not wishing an injury or anything like that, but I just don't see Tarnstrom not being on the ice being that huge of a blow, especially in our own end.
