Predict Your Team's Opening Day Lineup

[Teemu]

In name only. The Kruger line has just always been the fourth line, much like the Kane line is always the second line.

You figure Brayden Point made the team, huh? Interesting.

Werenski - Savard
Johnson - Nutivara

Since kucherov hasn't signed, he's been getting second line duty and pp time. Coaches seem to like him, and he's playing great. I think theirs a real possibility.

Yupp, nailed it

 

[Kingsfan1]

Brown-Kopitar-Setoguchi
Pearson-Carter-Toffoli
Clifford-Dowd-Purcell
King-Lewis-Andreoff

Muzzin-Doughty
Forbort-Martinez
Mcnabb-Gilbert

Quick
Zatkoff

This will be our lines since Sutter has been using these lines in every game and practice except for Kempe in for Kopi while he was gone. Kempe will be in for Pearson til he returns so i see these as our lines .

 

[Chez Weber]

What? Are you serious, Hossa on the 4th line?

Thought the same thing. The irony is that Hossa is on the 4th line while Panik is playing with Toews

 

[falconski]

today's cuts made it a bit easier (though still not easy)


Landeskog-MacKinnon-Duchene
R. Bourque-Soderberg-Iginla
Colborne-Grigerenko-Comeau
McLeod-Mitchell-G.Bourque
B. Smith

Beauchemin-Johnson
Zadorov-Barrie
Gelinas-Tyutin
Weircoch
Siemens

Varlamov
Pickard

Zadorov and Beauch interchangeable based off situation (more offense or size=add Zads, more defense=add Beacuh

 

[SimpleJack]

Hawks with Yak:

Panarin-Toews-Yakupov
Fortin-Anisimov-Kane
Panik-Kruger-Hossa
Desjardins-Rasmussen-Motte/Hartman/Tootoo
Motte/Hartman/Tootoo(only 1 extra forward, the odd man out will go to Rockford and the Hawks will keep 8 defenseman)

Keith-Hammer(technically suspended for opening night)
Campbell-Seabrook
Kempny-TVR
Forsling, Rozsival

Crawford
Darling

If no Yakupov then Panik will play top line RW, and Motte/Hartman will play next to Kruger and Hossa on the 3rd line.

 

[bleuetbio]

Schenn -- Giroux -- Simmonds
Konecny -- Couturier -- Voracek
Raffl -- Cousins -- Weise
Bellemare -- Gordon -- Read
Laughton
VandeVelde

Del Zotto -- Gostisbehere
Provorov -- Gudas
Schultz -- Streit
Manning

Mason
Neuvirth


Well... actually Schenn is suspended and therefore I imagine that Raffl shuffles into 1LW, Read goes to 3LW and one of Laughton or VandeVelde slots in on the 4th line... but they would be my best bet on lines when Schenn not suspended.

Is Neuvirth actually 1st?
