I have a feeling this is the B's team we'll see in October... the one thing I don't quite get is Blidh as 4th LW. Other than that, I like the team.

I think splitting Bergeron and Marchand is an extremely bad call. I also think Cehlarik is better than Blidh and just as ready for the 4th line. Other then that it looks reasonable.

Splitting them up was not on purpose. That's just because they order the players by contracts. Easily switch Marchand and Beleskey.

Cehlarik may very well be more ready than blidh but I was just going off playing style. Blidh is a physical hard forechecking player who's good defensively. Not much offense but in a normal role, he'd be fine. I honestly think we end up seeing Kelly back in that spot, which I am not a fan of. I wouldn't mind any of the cheap providence options though. Hargrove, blidh, cehlarik..... Anyone BUT kelly. There are some good cheap veterans available as well.

Looks pretty good. Play Marchand and Bergeron together and Backes as 3rd line C then move to RW late game defending the lead with Pastrnak and Spooner watching and learning how to play defense. As you said Kelly may be back and training camp winners as 4th line/extra FWD's.
