[LucicAndChong]

Im going to assume Mikheyev is back for the playoffs even though im not sure if he actually will be for the sake of this post.

Hyman - Matthews - Marner
Kerfoot - Tavares - Nylander
Johnsson - Engvall - Kapanen
Moore - Spezza - Mikheyev
Goat

Rielly - Barrie
Muzzin - Holl
Sandin - Dermott
Ceci

Assuming all are healthy:

Hyman-Matthews-Marner
Mikheyev-Tavares-Nylander
Johnsson-Kerfoot-Kapanen
Moore-Engvall-Spezza (Spezza/Engvall take strong side faceoffs)

-Engvall could switch with Mik if he isn't his usual self by playoff time.

Rielly-Barrie
Muzzin-Holl
Dermott-Liljegren

Andersen
upgrade from moving Ceci*

 

[Maplebeasts]

Hyman-Matthews-Marner
Mikheyev-Tavares-Nylander
Engvall-Kerfoot-Kapanen
Moore-Brooks-Spezza
Gauthier

Rielly-Holl
Muzzin-Liljegren
Dermott-Barrie
Marincin

Freddy
Backup

Johnsson traded for picks and a back up
Ceci traded so Lilly can come up.
Lilly paired with Muzzin.
Roll the D pairings

Edit: Forgot about Moore. He replaces Timashov

Like our 4th line a lot...2 PK guys and a PP2 guy = Very important pieces that can play up if required

 

[WTFMAN99]

Assuming Mikhayev is his usual self...

Hyman-JT-88
Soup-Matthews-Marner
Johnsson-Kerfoot-Kapanen
Engvall-Spezza-Moore

Muzzin-Holl
Rielly-Barrie
Dermott-Ceci

Andersen

I would prefer to look at moving Ceci, Johnsson and uprading back up but that is assuming nothing changes.

Looking at the amount of talent on the 4th line I'd be looking at trading a forward if the right deal came about

 

[Funk21]

Trade Johnsson plus a Third for Savard


Hyman Matthews Marner
Mikheyev JT Nylander
Engvall Kerfoot Kapanen
Moore Gauthier Spezza

Reilly Savard
Muzzin Barrie
Dermott Holl
Ceci

Andersen
Hutch

 

[frizzer1]

Mikheyev Matthews Marner
Johnsson Tavares Nylander
Engvall Kerfoot Kapanen
Moore Spezza Hyman

Muzzin Holl
Barrie Rielly
Dermott Ceci

Unless Liljegrin or Sandin are brought up....then the defense would be completely different.

 

[ToMaLe]

Mikheyev - Matthews - Marner
Johnsson - Tavares - Nylander
Engvall - Kerfoot - Kapanen
Moore - Spezza - Hyman

Rielly - Barrie
Muzzin - Holl
Dermott - Liljegren

Anderson
Hutchinson

 

[Martin Skoula]

Depends who we're facing. If it's Boston we need to abuse their depth, if it's Tampa I like our chances going blow for blow with a stacked top line.

 

[Gary Nylund]

Trade Johnsson plus a Third for Savard

Hyman Matthews Marner
Mikheyev JT Nylander
Engvall Kerfoot Kapanen
Moore Gauthier Spezza

Reilly Savard
Muzzin Barrie
Dermott Holl
Ceci

Andersen
Hutch

Or trade Johnsson and Rielly for Pietrangelo.

Mikheyev - Matthews - Marner

I'm not a big Hyman fan but putting him on fourth line is a pretty big stretch.

what do you guys think?

Looks good to me, not sure I would change a thing here.

 

[notDatsyuk]

I'm not a big Hyman fan but putting him on fourth line is a pretty big stretch.

I'm constantly surprised that there are posters who do that - even putting him on the third shows, imho, a lack of understanding.

That’s mine too, assuming no trades. Don’t love Ceci, but he’s probably the slightly safer/better choice over Liljegren for this year.

Wouldn’t mind seeing us try moving some expiring dmen for a better Rielly partner though. I’d be psyched if we could do something like Barrie+ for Savard.

 

[LeafChief]

Should I be the first one to post a lineup with Williams in it?
