Line Combos: Going younger, could do 6 but let's see 5

[pkunit]

Marchy-Bergy-Backes
Vatrano-Krejcki-Pasta
Agostino-Duchene-Bjork
Gabrielle-Nash-Acciari
Schaller

Chara-McAvoy
Krug-MQuaid
Killer-Potsma
Lauzon

Rask
Dobby

Includes 2 trades to be completed before season starts

Carlo/Heinen/Beleskey to Colorado for Duchene
Spooner to Pittsburgh for a 2nd round pick

Drop the puck!

I like the lineup. That's arguably the best team in the east!

If I was going to draft either DeBrusk or Bjork for my fantasy team, which should I pick? Strictly points based, cumulative on the goals


G:1 A:1 PPG :1 OTG:4 SHG:3 HT:5 GWG: 1 SGW: 2

I would probably go with Bjork because he looks to be pencilled in as the RW on the Marchand-Bergeron line. Having said that, the LW spot with Krejci and Pastrnak appears to be Debrusk's to lose (although less certain than Bjork). It would not surprise me to see both players net 20 goals each playing regularly on those lines.

Pencilled in but not automatically alongside mar ber

I think they should leave pasta in the 1st line

And experiment krejci with bjork

How is a line good for the playoffs but not regular season?

Playoffs is a different animal than regular. Alot more difficult

That line has chemistry. Dont mess it around

Also Marchand bergeron pasta (chemistry. Dont touch it)

Krejci or spooner or nash line is what needs figuring out

I just completely disagree, and thats fine. I also completely disagree with keeping Marchand/Bergeron/Pasta together, because throwing two rookies with Krejci isn't maximizing Krejci's talents.

How often has Acciari Kuraly Backes been together in training camp?

If Pasta stays on the 1st line they have one line that can score at will, and three other lines that are incredibly unproven. You have to balance the scoring.
