Description

I know Cassidy already said Ritchie is likely to get the call with my guess being Studnicka being left out? Maybe Bjork? But I was thinking about this and I think moving Kuraly up to the 3rd line wouldn't be a terrible idea. I think his style of play matches up well with the Tampa 3rd line. Kuraly with Coyle and Bjork/Stud I think gives that third line for Tampa, who has looked to find their groove, a tough time. Frederic was thrown in for that "Ritchie" effect, bringing extra toughness and grit. Lindholm can be put there too as he's an effective role player who can fill in on the PK and has more NHL experience than Frederic. Playoffs isn't the greatest time to experiment but Ritchie seems to be a failed experiment in itself so there's that. Just some food for thought. Not sure if anyone would agree with me here or not.

Would it make sense to move Marchand to the second line to give 2 competing lines? Also Halak?

Per Cassidy Kuraly didn't look very good on the wing. That's why he put him back on the 4th line.
