Just give him another month or two to strengthen his shoulder. Norris is a long-term play, don't put his career/health in jeopardy just because this team has a history of starting their seasons off horribly. Just put him on LTIR, sign Pinto and kick the can down the road. It also gives the expendable guys like Joseph/Kubalik/Brannstrom an opportunity to increase their trade value for the time being - lots of teams get injuries early on and need a Top 9 replacement.
After November, this team played at a 93 point pace with Pinto and Gambrell/Greig in the 2C/3C spots. And that includes only a total of 63 games between Chabot/Chychrun, and the whole 7 goalies debacle. Worst case you play Giroux at C.
This team should most definitely survive a month or two with Pinto and Greig as 2C/3C as they *should* only be improved from last year. This Top 9 will more than suffice for now:
And their PP units would still be very good:
They can't rush Norris, that would be yet another fireable offence for Dorion, Smith and Co.
