Line Combos: Build the 2013-14 starting line-up (2nd line center)

[WatchfulElm]

Let's build together the Habs 2013-14 starting line-up. This would be an "injury free" line-up, so let's do as if Gionta and Emelin were ready to start on day one.

Try to build lines that work, instead of just voting for the best player for each position.

Between (brackets) is the normal position for this player. You can always vote to put a player in another position.

Time to pick the 2nd line center :

OFFENSE

???? - Plekanec - ????
???? - ???? - ????
???? - ???? - ????
???? - ???? - ????
Ex : ????

DEFENSE

23rd player (offense or defense) : ????
--------------------------------
1st call-up (offense) : ????
2nd call-up (offense) : ????
3rd call-up (offense) : ????
1st call-up (defense) : ????
2nd call-up (defense) : ????
1st call-up (goaler) : ????

Eller all day.

 

[peate]

I'd like Eller but I voted DD cause we all know he'll be there to start.

 

[Hope Of Glory]

In an ideal world, Eller. That's why I voted for him.

 

[JonathanToews19clutc*]

Lars Eller is ready for play in top 6 role.

 

[Trist and Sea]

It should be Galchenyuk's spot, even if I bet he won't even get a crack at center this year, so I voted for him.

 

[Price My Man Crush]

Eller and Galchenyuk are going to alternate for the centre position on the 2nd line. That would be the best case...but I'm sure it's gonna be le petit David.

 

[NewHabsEra*]

Eller deserves to be our second line center with increased responsabilities on the PP.. Unfortunately, Im effraid Desharnais will still get that ice time..

 

[LyricalLyricist]

Either DD or Eller. I don't care which. Whoever isn't 2nd should be 3rd.

Doesn't make a dif which as they are just warming up galchenyuk's spot for when he's ready. Dunno how long it will take though.

 

[HatTricK09]

I want to see Eller get 2C but DD will get it

 

[That Habs Fan]

Lars Eller.

It is time.

 

[Rosso Scuderia]

Eller deserves and should be our 2nd center this upcoming season.

That said, DD will probably get all the chance in the world to produce again, so he will play with MaxPac and on every PP. So there's no doubt in my my DD will start the season as our 2nd line center.

Therrien have no choice to put him on the 2nd line. I don't think MB will be happy that he gave a 4yr extension at 3.5M$ for a third center.

 

[Milhouse40]

Finished the season as a PPG Player and that's without PP Time.
With his size and his newly found physicality.....we need Eller to be more on the ice.
At least on the PP, he diserve it!

 

[overlords]

Really fun idea for a series of polls.

 

[jaffy27]

Voted Eller and his 220lbs body, but we all know its gonna b le p'tit gars d'chez nous that's gonna get it, it's just a matter of time before Gally and Eller are our 1-2 punch at C

 

[MXD]

Can't say between Eller or Desharnais. I dunno... that's a little too much dependant on the wingers, no?

As for the PP, frankly, I'd play them BOTH on the same PP, with DD nominally at center... or wherever he doesn't play at the hashtags, or in the Kovy spot.

 

[vokiel]

DD, otherwise get ready for some shaky defensive line.. lol
