Description

Why these haven't been the lines fo the last two games is beyond me, hyman works so much better with Matthews and marner than Thornton and that second line has looked great, Thornton as 3C seems like the perfect spot, kerfoot is better on the wing than at c, just feels so obvious up front, on D I'd like to see lehtonen get a chance over Bogo and Sandin over holl but without changing the roster this seems like an easy lineup

I think nick Robertson’s in the line up tonight. Hopefully him and vesey switch. I don’t want him playing 5 minutes.

I think kerfoot is hurt so I'd put robertson in his spot beside Thornton, vesey has look solid with JT and Nylander imo

Swap marner and nylander or explain how putting Hyman on that line so marner can continue to shoot the puck 8 feet wide at 20kmh is going to change.

I worked last year, why they messed with what worked IDK, and Nylander Tavares has worked great last year and to start this one so I definitely wouldn't split them up

Marner is doing too much thinking. Just go and do what you do best. Don't think shoot first think pass first but understand when taking a shot makes sense. It's the classic pendulum, he's swung way too far the other direction.
