It has to be Hyman, surely?
Marleau not being on one of the top 2 scoring lines would be pointless. The third line was also a good scoring line last year but they primarily have shutdown responsibilities and he can't replace Komarov in that regard. Komarov could move down to the 4th line, and replace Martin, which I'm fine with, but that greatly weakens the shutdown line defensively. Or, with Komarov playing with Moore, I guess that becomes the new shutdown line.
I doubt JVR is going to be placed in the bottom 6.
Unless Bozak is moved and Nylander moves to centre, the right-wing spots are also spoken for and he can't take Brown's spot for the same reason I previously explained.
Hyman is the only feasible option in the top 6 that Marleau can replace and he should already being playing in the bottom 6 regardless. If Babcock is still that obsessed with having Hyman attached to Auston's hip then I don't know what the hell they're going to do with Marleau.
