Nope. Healthy scratch.

First line likely gets bullied around. I'd have Ras riding shotgun to Larks and Cat. Raymond with JT and Perron. Bergy can play with Copp and Sprong. Dirty Joe centering Kostin and Fischer. Fabbri will end up on IR like he always does. I think the D pairs are accurate. We'll have to see what the chemistry is like. Dirty Joe should get more. I have him at 1.5 mil AAV.

Healthy Fabbri is playing over Christan Fischer. He finished with 10 less points than Fischer in 50 less games

There's much more to lineups than the points they get. Fischer has a defined role on this team. We don't need 9 wingers who can get points, we need guys who can muck and grind.

Fischer's defined role is 13th forward.

Avs fan here. Berggren had a good year, but I'd be careful playing a dude that young with Compher. JT has the defensive ability to make up for mistakes in his own end, but not the offensive creativity to make up for bad positioning in the other end. Just my two cents.

I wish we had 9 wingers who could get points...

I actually really like that.

This is also my sample line-up with 1 change - Copp at 2C and Compher at 3C to provide LH/RH balance since this is the first time we will have it in a LOOOOONG time.

Raz-Larking-Ray
Cat-Copp-Perron
Bergy-Compher-Sprong
Klim-Veleno-Fischer/Fabbri

Wals-Mo
Matta-Ghost
Crash-Hole
