Description

I like these F Lines. Each Top 3 Lines has a real goal scorer. I like L/R on my D pairs, so in camp, it will be interesting to watch the 2nd and 3rd RHD. If Fitz or (I doubt yet) Laaksonen can show, maybe... Most likely Bryson will get the nod on the 3rd pair, but here I have him 2RD with Power and a shutdown pair in Samuelsson and Lyubushkin. The Goalies are what they are to start and UPL and Subban in ROC and Houser to start in Cincy if Subban is healthy. P.S. I just noticed we have the floor, I don't know why Tage is at 1.4? I would still do Bonino, as they can afford it and an expiring contract. p.s. 2 I like to have Asplund with Mitts and Krebs with Cozens, but they could switch from 2nd to 3rd or 3rd to 2nd Lines, but I leave the RW where they are. p.s. 3I Nixed Bonino trade, but if I had to, I'd go with my original plan of R.Sheahan, as my 1rst option as 4C, he was signed for a reason. If he doesn't work, I'd look into trading for Bonino, if possible.

We dont need wiggle room we suck. We need the most assets we can get, so id look for a third minimum

No ones giving a 4th for Bonino, not a 4C making $2 mill.

Well you want him, so someone else probably also does. Retaining would be no issue for the right deal

How are you retaining? SJ is $400K under with 23 of 23 roster.

My bad, they could a little when trading.

Samuelson is playing on top D pair with Dahlin to start. They finished that way and Dahlin really got free to go wherever he wanted knowing Samuelson was there to help. I think Power plays with Llya (to do the same as Samuelson does for Dahlin) and Bryson and Joki play together.
As for Fwd lines I really think they switch a lot up. So many options and going to be interesting

@CB37 First, Dahlin playing LHD is a good plan.
Maybe Laaksonen or Fitzgerald at RHD, hard to tell which is a better plan. Bryson playing his off hand or a RHD on the right.
"I'd go with my original plan of R.Sheahan, as my 1rst option as 4C,"
Hinostroza will probably start over Sheahan.
Vinnie has two fewer goals last year than Riley has over the past three years.
Slide Olofsson to LW then move either Krebs or Girgensons to center.
But this is your dream and Granato will most likely develop a better line up than either of us could imagine.

As for 4C, I think they want an upgrade on faceoff %, not goal scoring.

I think those will probably be the D pairs, if Dahlin stays with Samuel.
