I personally feel we had 3 checking lines and one scoring line, Huberdeau crapped the bed too. After all our early suspensions and penalties all our grit players like Camara, Jenner weren't playing on the edge like they usually do. I also feel they should have brought more creative offensive talent to the tourney, sure they brought a bunch of guys like Ritchie and Jenner and they have places but I think not inviting Max Domi and cutting Seth Griffith among others was a mistake. I actually think our Forwards will be better off next year other than us losing RNH.
I'd have liked to see line ups like:
Schiefle - RNH - Drouin
Griffith - Strome - Rattie
Huberdeau/Mackinnon - Jenner - Domi
Camara - Danault - Huberdeau/Mackinnon
But either way next year I think we will be really strong still have tons of 17 year old talent and younger such as Connor McDavid...real offensive talent not checking forwards with big bodies bullying the CHL. Our defense might not be as good considering we will lose Hamilton, Harrington, probably Rielly, Ouellet, Murphy.
Edit: Spott better not be coaching next year, I'd like to see a creative coach that will coach around the team not make the team play his usual system.
