I think that's how the top six turns out.
But only once we are down 3-1 in a series, with Perron and Malkin having zero playing time on the same line prior to that.

Steigy and Errey for all I care. Just get them off the ice.If you could bench Kunitz and Scuderi who replaces them?
I think some folks over-value Winnik and let Downie's reputation cloud their judgement on him.
Winnik just can't score enough to justify a spot playing with Sid or Geno. He may have looked good by comparison the other night, but I honestly think Downie would be MUCH more valuable in that spot. I could be wrong, but didn't Downie play along side of Stamkos?
Buyout Scuderi and start playing Harrington

Right but we need someone in the bottom 6 that can score. Downie is really needed in the bottom 6. Winnik can skate with Sid, win board battles, and get him the puck. Horny can drive the net and cause havoc and Sid can do his thing. Plus, Downie is a pure right winger. There really isn't an ideal spot for Downie in the top 6.
Winnik-Crosby-Hornqvist (certainly not ideal but it's probably the best we have)
Perron-Malkin-Comeau
Kunitz-Sutter-Downie
Spaling-Lapierre-Bennett
That's the best realistic lineup the Pens can put together.
By realistic, I meant that the Pen's would actually do. Also, I think guys like Farnham, Megna, Rust can help in doses, but let's be honest that none of them are actual solutions.
Of course.
