I'm really glad they are finally splitting up McJesus, Drysaddle, and the Nuge to 3 different lines. Should make this team much better balanced.

I have EDM winning the President's trophy in my pre-season predictions especially because they are finally going for lineup balance... and an actual goaltender helps, too : P

There is no difference between the 2nd and 3rd pairings in this scenario. Manson runs then equally.

Woodcroft ran unicorns from the first game, IIRC. And the Oilers were 2nd in the league (.724) over the final 38 games last year.
