If you want a thread just to improve relations between two clubs wouldn't it be best to get something going in the Jets board? You will have no problem getting leaf fans to show up there. Otherwise try to make this a league thing, involve all the other teams.

Thread to have fun, if you don't want to add to it then don't post in it. Including other teams defeats intent of thread

My point was that if that is your intent it would probably work a lot better not being in the main boards. Anyway, was just a suggestion.

Laine - Matthews - Marner

Laine would be the main trigger man while Matthews does his thing as center and fights for the pucks. Marner has one of the best visions in the league so he would fit fine setting up the two.

Ehlers - Scheifele - Nylander

Scheifele doing the dirty work while two speedy and skilled wingers do their job in the offensive zone.

 

[oooooooooohCanada]

Rielly-Trouba would be fun.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

Laine - Scheifele - Marner
Ehlers - Matthews - Nylander

Gardiner - Trouba
Rielly - Buff

 

[Hunter368]

Laine - Scheifele - Marner
Ehlers - Matthews - Nylander

Gardiner - Trouba
Rielly - Buff

I did similar thing, made Laine & Matthews the tigger men on separate lines. I don't think Laine & Matthews styles would work great together on same line imo. Plus breaks them up, harder to defend vs.

 

[jetsforever]

Perreault - Lowry - Brown
Enstrom - Carrick
McElhinney

I'm going to do a top 6/top 4 (There's enough good players to make 2 top lines and there's multiple D-Pairings I like):


Nylander - Matthews - Wheeler
Marner - Scheifele - Laine

Rielly - Trouba
Gardiner - Buff

Thought the Matthews-Nylander and Scheifele-Laine duos were the best possible and took who I thought would best compliment each duo. For defense, I think each partner will compliment the other one well.

****ing lethal

gimme dat

Laine - Scheifele - Marner

Gardiner - Trouba
Rielly - Buff

Actually insanely good

 

[Brock Radunske]

Laine - Matthews - Marner

Laine would be the main trigger man while Matthews does his thing as center and fights for the pucks. Marner has one of the best visions in the league so he would fit fine setting up the two.

Ehlers - Scheifele - Nylander

Scheifele doing the dirty work while two speedy and skilled wingers do their job in the offensive zone.

Probably should separate Matthews and Laine since they're both high volume shooters. There wouldn't be enough puck to go around.

Laine with Marner would be insane though. Laine would get so many open spots in high danger areas.

Laine - Scheifele - Marner
Ehlers - Matthews - Nylander

Gardiner - Trouba
Rielly - Buff

I'd rather Wheeler than Nylander, but otherwise not so bad.

 

[Morgs]

Laine - Scheifele - Marner
Nylander - Matthews - Wheeler
JVR - Kadri - Ehlers
Perrault/Connor/Marleau - Little - Brown/Kapanen

Rielly - Trouba (shutdown)
Gardiner - Byfuglien (all offense)
Morrissey - Zaitsev (mix)

Andersen
Mason


My god the top-3 lines would be unstoppable. I can't even fathom how good the 2nd line would be with Wheeler taking Hyman's spot...

 

[The Winter Soldier]

Who would be the #1 Center?

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

I just like the chemistry of Nylander and Matthews. It also lets the 3rd line be something like Kadri - little - wheeler

 

[Morgs]

Who would be the #1 Center?

There would be two first lines, don't start ****.

 

[Hunter368]

Who would be the #1 Center?

Who cares, when you have Mark & Matthews, you have two guys who are true #1C. Sub or play whoever is hot or fits the situation best.

Don't turn this into a pissing match please.

There would be two first lines, don't start ****.

Agreed

Let's have one friendly good spirited thread between Jets/Leafs celebrating our great line ups.

 

[The Winter Soldier]

It was a legitimate question. You have to have a #1 #2 #3 #4 line. I don't see Little as a #4C for instance. So if we can't discuss this. This thread is kind of silly. So I am out of this mythical thread and I will leave it to you folks...

Nope, you don't. Look at the leafs last season, they had 3 lines they would roll out for different situation, not a 1, 2, and 3.

 

[Arizonan God]

Idk but I'd wanna see Trouba and Gardiner paired. That would be unreal.

Laine - Scheifele - Marner
Nylander - Matthews - Wheeler

Doesn't get much better then that. With that lineup I think the weakest position would be goaltending. Anderson/Mason would be very solid, battling it out for starter but neither are elite level. Their biggest problem might be trying to stay alert b/c the puck would rarely be in our end. haha

No you don't need to label them. PMO refused on many occasions to call Mark 1C, he still referred to Little as our 1C. But how he played them said it all.

I think Matthews/wheeler would be a great pair

Scheifele+Laine is the future duo
