MacArthur expected to get the green light for an early January return, possibly January 7. Simple question, where does he fit within the line-up?
Does he get sheltered minutes on the third line? Small minutes with the fourth? Or does he get positive Top 6 which ramps up expectations and pushes Smith or Hoffman down???
I’m thinking the Brassard line is looking strong, so it could be the Turris line that gets a make-over, and adding MacArthur to Ryan on that line is not a strong positive and Hoffman should claim that spot anyway.
Dzingel will not mesh with slower Neil, Kelly, Lazar combo to highlight his speed and playmaking. I like him with Pageau, even if its off wing.
Hoffman – Turris – Ryan
Smith – Brassard – Stone
MacArthur – Pageau – Dzingel
Pyatt – Lazar – Neil
Kelly
Wondering where others would slot him.
