This is extremely close to my line up. A lot of people are trading Armia or putting him on 4th line. I thought he played really well with Drouin and Suzuki. The Tuna/danault/gally line was the 3rd best in the league 5 on 5 last season. Putting two goal scorers with KK is an excellent idea. Then your 4th line is the best in the league.

As for defense. People are trading Chiarot or Edmunson or putting them as healthy scratches or 3rd pairing. Nonsense. Chiarot will play with Weber. They wanted an upgrade from Kulak. Claude Julien in a French interview said by having Edmundson, it will free up Petry to join the rush even more.

My only sticking point is putting Romanov on his off side to begin his NHL career. I would move him over to the left side. But then do you put Kulak, Mete or even Juulsen on right side?

At any rate, it is a very good line up!

I agree with you re: Romanov on the left side. It makes the in game adjustments to give him extra shifts (alongside either Weber or Petry) alot easier. Kulak should be fine as a #7 D in my books, at least to start the season (for sure injuries are going to happen quickly in a (likely) compressed season, so he'll likely get to playing before it's too long, either with the Habs or otherwise). But for the start of the season, ideally I'd want to see either Mete or Juulsen play. They're either going to claim that spot pretty quickly, or Bergevin will likely be looking to add to his draft pick collection.
