My lineup with todays players and no trades

Created by: Lifebane86
Team: 2022-23 Winnipeg Jets
Initial Creation Date: Sep. 19, 2022
Published: Sep. 19, 2022
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
If the Jets don't acquire any other players. I don't believe for a second they actually use these lines, but I think they would make so much sense.

We want Dubois and Sheif to have great seasons this year no matter where they end up the following year. We want them both to have first line minutes to keep them happy and up their point totals. Why not put them on the same line?

Using our third line as a shutdown line has been a total bust without Copp. We need a 3rd line that can do more than just kill time.

Bringing in Perfetti on the wing would be a huge miss IMO. Let him center the second line.

I think we have to give Heinola a full time chance this year. If 20 games in he hasn't found chemistry, then we can switch him out for Samberg.

That 4th line probably gets tied to the bench, going to have to try and build a 4 line team, only way of beating the best of the central, is going to have to be on depth and developing some youth that is basically at cast off point. I still like a Connor/Dubois/Appleton, harkins/scheifele/wheeler, ehlers/barron/perfetti, and Lowry with whoever is left. Then try to roll 4 lines and tighten up later as the game goes along.

I would like to see Gawanke get an opportunity, but I don't know whether he will mesh under Bowness's system. Also Lucius should at least get nine games in the NHL, I loved watching him in the Young Stars tournament. Dillon and Stanley should get traded after training camp to make room for our younger players, there's a logjam at LD that Chevy refuses to fix.

While I love the idea of PLD and Schief getting full minutes to keep them happy, you can't break Connor-PLD-Perfetti. That line looked very dangerous, especially against good teams like Florida and Washington. Plus Schief doesn't play defensive hockey, so I don't think he will put Connor and Schief on the same line.

I agree with your point about the 3rd line being a complete bust without Copp, but I think swapping Wheels and Appleton would be a better idea. Or maybe Barron with Wheels.

Overall there should be 11F and 7D to make room for our younger defenseman, as I would scratch Harkins. This is how Gawanke could get an opportunity. Also Gus should absolutely play, especially on the penalty kill. I really love his two-way game and I think Bowness will like it too.

For defensive pairings, I wouldn't break up JoMo and DeMelo. They played very well while together. Instead these would be the d lines:

JoMo-DeMelo
Heinola-Pionk
Samberg-Schmidt
Gawanke

As for goaltending, I think Berdin should get an opportunity to become the backup. I didnt like how Rittich played the past two seasons. The goalie tandem in the AHL will probably be Salminen and Holm.

As for captain choices, its either gonna be Connor, Schief, or JoMo.
