A life with Risto is a life for me

Description
For some reason, maybe out of my stupidity, I see Risto being given a half season chance. Just to see if he can succeed with this new coaching system. Henri being in the AHL won't hurt him, and in fact might help develop him. If I am going by some (handful) comments from Hawks fans about him. Also, I wanted to try my hand at solving the lineup puzzle. Olof being on the 3rd line is the best I got for him. He can easily fill in the top 6 if injuries/chemistry issues occur. Overall though, these lines make the most sense to me with everyone we have.

    you dont think Henri makes the jump? he looked REALLY good in a small sample size with the hawks last season. he wasn't sheltered and was still very effective.

    Wouldn't keep our three best forwards on the same line personally. Skinner and Eichel stay together and you toss a guy like Sheary/Thompson/Johansson up there. If Mitts is playing 2nd line center, give him Olofsson and Reinhart to help him out. Third line I see as ERod with Vesey and you-name-it. 4th line I could care less as long as CJ Smith gets 20 games of oppourtunity
