Description

The defense is going to stay the same Montour and Ristolainen will be playing on the first pair.
Hall and Eichel don’t need to play with each other they both drive the play well. Put Skinner back with Eichel.
Eakin will only be effective when he’s with good wingers that’s why Sam and Victor are on the third line.
Remember that Krueger plays lines 2/4 around the same amount too.

I think this would be really good. Reunite Staal and Skinner IMO
Hall-Eichel-Olofsson
Skinner-Staal- Cozens
