Just wanted to see what kind of moves you guys would make Here's mine: Perry-Spezza-Eberle Oshie-Turris-Wheeler Greening-Zibanejad-Silfverberg Neil-Pageau-Condra Karlsson-Pietrangelo Cowen-McDonagh Phillips-Methot Extras: Conacher, Gryba, Wiercioch, Smith Out: Alfie (assuming he retires), Michalek, Latendresse, Kassian, Benoit, Gonchar $53,742,499 cap hit Kinda weird to do our team as our lineup changes all the time, but it's still fun!
Just so its clear, due to lack of explaining. 6 players in, 6 players out. Stay within the cap. http://capgeek.com/senators/cap-calculator/
In- Pat Kane Mike Richards Wayne Simmonds Nick Foligno Roman Polak Ryan McDonough Out- Michalek Gonchar Turris Phillips Kassian O'Brien
Ladd - Spezza - Michalek Landeskog - Turris - Alfredsson Greening - Pageau - Condra Silfverberg - Zibanejad - Neil Methot - Karlsson Cowen - Gonchar Phillips - Burns Anderson Lehner Out: Smith, Conacher and Benoit. Yes I realize Burns is playing forward in SJ but I would play him D. Yes only 3. Cup is ours.

You literally nailed it. Perfect line-up. I'd switch Wheeler with maybe Ryan or Eberle with Kane but yea.

Alternate lineup: Landeskog-Spezza-Perry Alfredsson-Datsyuk-Kane Greening-Pageau-Alfredsson Conacher-Zibanejad-Condra Methot-Karlsson McDonagh-Pietrangelo Phillips-Cowen Anderson Lehner Can you believe we still have $7 million in cap space with this roster.

LOL, I had Condra on that line but I unno what happened. With that roster we can have Alfie playing half a shift on each line and we'd still win because of how good it is. Also, add Neil last line.
