Don't mess with the chemistry too much to start. Let the new guys practice a few times before touching the top 3 lines or 3 D-pairs

Drouin - Danault - Gallagher
Tatar - Domi - Shaw
Lehkonen - Kotkaniemi - Armia
Byron - Thompson - Weise
Deslauriers, Hudon (extras)
Waive Peca

Mete - Weber
Reilly - Petry
Kulak - Benn
Folin (extra)

Am I the only one who's skeptical about the new 4th line?

In today's game we need a 4th line that can chip in some secondary scoring, in addition to being defensively responsible.

Is Deslauriers-Thompson-Weise going to bring secondary scoring? I don't think so.

I prefer Marcus Johansson-Brassard-Weise.

After the deadline, the 25th of February, we can have over 23 players roster, I am predicting we somehow always have a player injured until then.

I expect this too. No sense moving any depth right now. If anything we should pick up a cheap 5th line center Trade Deadline day. Maybe move Hudon. I don't see Peca as a center, but RW.

Drouin - Danault - Gallagher
Tatar - Domi - Shaw
Lehkonen - Kotkaniemi - Armia
Byron - Thompson - Weise
Deslauriers - xxxx - Peca

Mete - Weber
Reilly - Petry
Kulak - Benn
Xxx - Folin

I'd even pick up an 8th D. If we get a top 4 LHD w/o giving one up then that'll do it.

15F, 8D, 2G, 25 player roster post deadline.

What are the line-ups when Danult is back? Who is playing 4th line between Lehkonen, Byron, Shaw? I don't believe we have been 100% healthy all year with our forwards

Drouin / Danault / Gallagher
Tatar / Domi / Shaw
Byron / Kotkaniemi / Armia
Hudon / Peca or Thompson / Lehkonen

or

Drouin / Domi / Shaw
Tatar/ Danault / Gallagher
Byron / Kotkaniemi / Armia
Hudon / Peca or Thompson / Lehkonen

What I would like to see:
Drouin-Domi-Shaw
Tatar-Kotkaniemi-Armia
Byron-Danault-Gallagher
Peca/DeslauriersHudon-Thompson-Lehkonen

I can't wait to see Kotkaniemi play regularly with Tatar, Gallagher, or even Drouin. But Bergevin doesn't want it to happen.

It's one of the reasons I'd like to get Marcus Johansson if he's available for a 3rd and a B level prospect. Would be nice for Kotkaniemi to play with an offensive player.
