Yeees, why not waste Tatar on line with 2 4th liners.. because thats exactly how he is going to rebound!

Also Haula is only a C on PKs..

..plus you forgot Glass and Suzuki who are likely making the team..

Eakin is kind of an anchor offensively, but if Haula is playing wing, he’s our 3rd best C. Nosek is probably going to be the most improved player in 2018. If Eakin can play decent defense and get maybe 35-40 points I think it will be a good 2 way line.

I didn’t set the PK lineups, I was only looking for standard lines. He may still play C on special teams.

I’m assuming neither Glass nor Suzuki make the team for a few reasons:
-We have 33 roster players for only 23 spots and McPhee hates sending players through waivers if he can avoid it.
-McPhee has said many times that he prefers to ‘over cook’ prospects, coming up now is ahead of schedule, not behind.
-Neither have played higher than Junior, so a year in AHL would help both.
