I think this would be the lineup I go with. I don't like Wilson and Ovechkin together. They aren't complementary players at all: both are triggermen with very few possession elements to their game, and both have defensive deficiencies. Both also have significantly better metrics apart than together over the past 3 years.
I think two defensively responsible possession players playing on the same lines as Ovechkin and Wilson is probably the way to go.
I'd keep the bottom 6 together for now given their recent play.
That's a fine thought to start the season but it's been 13 games and the trend line isn't great. At some point it's time to pull the plug.
The Hockey Jockey on 1st line? Really? How’s he gonna do on the road when the other coach can put their best line against him?
It is going to be ugly.
Put 92 in 45’s slot. Play them together. Strome and Kuz.
Strome could use a passing winger. He’s got a better shot than field vision. IMO.
Oshie can sit (sadly) until he’s ready to replace NAK or someone else shits their bed (like Lapierre).
