With no Simon:

Guentzel-Crosby-Kapanen
Zucker-Malkin-Rust
Poulin/O'Connor-McCann-Tanev
UFA-Blueger-Sceviour
Lafferty-ZAR

Sounds about right to me.

Can't claim to have watched Poulin much, but someone's going to have to convince me that third line can do anything.

I'm still waiting to hear the case for that second line. :laugh:

EDIT: Joke aside, IF the first line is what everyone expects, then I wonder if you're better off with Poulin-Malkin-Rust and Zucker-McCann-Tanev.

If he’s ready I’d still want to add a 3C and move McCann to 3LW. With Poulin specifically it’s a question of if he’s ready for a 3rd line role in the NHL. If he is, he’ll be able to contribute and add a playmaker to it.

I don’t think he should be the lone playmaker with McCann and Tanev.

Well, you’re better off seeing how Poulin looks on L3 if he even makes the team and seeing what ZMR does with a healthy Malkin and some more normal time together. Bonus seeing how things look without JJ behind them.

3rd line Zucker might mean trading him or McCann for a 3C.
