New coach new lines?

[definedMF]

I want to see Spezza with Kappy again as those two seemed to have a good chemistry going with one another. Would also give us a chance to move Kerfoot off of JT's wing as he's been essentially useless there.

Hyman Matthews Marner
Engvall Tavares Nylander
Johnsson Spezza Kapanen
Clifford Gauthier Kerfoot

Muzzin Holl
Dermott Barrie
Sandin Liljegren

Andersen
Campbell

 

[ShaneFalco]

Hyman - Matthews - Marner
Kerfoot - Tavares - Nylander
Johnsson - Engvall - Kapanen
Clifford - Gauthier - Spezza

Dermott - Barrie
Muzzin - Liljigren
Sandin - Holl

Take Goat out have Spexza as C and add Tima

Wouldn't be surprised to see Clifford higher in the lineup than expected as a second Hyman.

At last like etta james we have our Gangsta Thug in Clifford. NOW we ready to rumble in the jungle baby.

Kerfoot was again so bad on that tavares line yesterday.... so I dodn't even know anymore if he gon stay there. They might put Johnsson or even Clifford with the Tavares after that dirt. We'll have to wait and see for tomorrow. The Ducks is a real hard lineup and they play with a real edge to it. We now have Clifford to stand up for us and defend all of our suckas if some fools will try something fishy.

I would be. He's never really played more than 10-12 minutes a night, and his game seems to be more as an energy guy & defensive specialist. Hyman is by no means an offensive star, but he certainly has more skill to fill a role in the top nine than Clifford does. I think you'd be hurting Clifford's optimization by stretching his role like that.
