Line Combos: Now what?

[ImpartialNHLfan]

I'd love to see Marner with Matthews and Nylander with Tavares. Just makes more sense to me.

 

[Magic Man]

Andreas Johnsson - John Tavares - Mitch Marner
William Nylander - Auston Matthews - Kasperi Kapanen
Zach Hyman - Alexander Kerfoot - Jeremy Bracco
Kenny Agostino - Jason Spezza - Trevor Moore
ex. Nick Shore

Morgan Rielly - Cody Ceci
Jake Muzzin - Tyson Barrie
Ben Harpur - Travis Dermott
ex. Andreas Borgman

Frederik Andersen
Michael Hutchinson

PP#1
Auston Matthews - John Tavares - Mitch Marner
Morgan Rielly - Tyson Barrie

PP#2
Andreas Johnsson - William Nylander - Kasperi Kapanen
Jake Muzzin - Jeremy Bracco

PK#1
Zach Hyman - Kasperi Kapanen
Jake Muzzin - Cody Ceci

PK#2
Alexander Kerfoot - Trevor Moore
Morgan Rielly - Travis Dermott

Ilya Mikheyev in for Zach Hyman until he returns. Rasmus Sandin in for Travis Dermott. Alternate Borgman and Harpur depending on who is playing well. Bring up Liljegren and Sandin when the roster expands at the deadline if the cap space is available. Mitch Marner replaces Hyman on the PK until he returns, Tyson Barrie replaces Dermott.

If we go into a reverse umbrella, Marner will be the one down low below the goal line.

High on Kivi eh? Can you give any insight on what you've seen from him or just a hunch?

 

[hector morrison]

In what world where Babcock is supreme leader is Hyman on the fourth?

It's where he belongs...I can't be convinced that one of those other names wouldn't be more productive and more suited to playing in his current spot. Gotta fire Babs to make it happen...no other coach in hockey would play Hyman in a top 6 role!

 

[MarMarSab3]

High on Kivi eh? Can you give any insight on what you've seen from him or just a hunch?

The Leafs always give these European ufa signings a good look, Zaitsev Ozi Rosen Borgman all had there shot early on. Kivi I think will impress enough with his IQ and skill that as a bottom pairing guy he's a solid option.

 

[deletethis]

It would be super useful if a prospect defenseman emerged this season and forced his way not just into the lineup but into a major role.

 

[moon111]

Think you'll see at least one player who you could put on the penalty-kill on each line.

 

[BodaciousBeefBazooka]

Sign Marner and wait for puck drop pretty much

 

[Nineteen67]

Sign Marner and wait for puck drop pretty much

Yes, get this done first.

 

[therealkoho]

Shore from all accounts is a PK/defensive specialist so 4th line RW

when healthy

Hyman - JT - MM

Johnsson - Matty - KK

Moore - Kerfoot - Mikheyev

Marchement - Spezza - Shore

Reilly - Barrie

Muzzin - ( Nylander + Ceci deal) Josh Manson

Dermott - Harpur
