I mentioned this in a post and was curios about what people feel will be the future team's style of play?
I see a blend of new school offence with old school grind 'em down/shut 'em down defense.
Given our future wingers/centers like Marner/Nylander/Brown/hopefully Vesey/etc mixed with Komorov/Martin/Grundstrom/Korshkov/Hyman/ the big dman that were drafted/etc etc.
I also think Matthews kind of fits both sides and to a lesser degree Kadri/Sosh.
This team will attack with high-skill/high-tempo offence, and follow that with an in-your-face grind 'em down defense.
The beauty of this make-up is its adaptibility. You can seperate the two and give more minutes to the high-skill offense to build a lead or chase a lead. Also switch to the defence if you have to defend a lead. If you are playing a tougher team you can juggle the lines to add grit with the offense or if you're playing a defensively weak team you can juggle and play the offense more.
Love the pure adaptibility this team is striving for.
