First line is great.
Second line has no defense at all, likely gonna get outscored in the playoffs.
Thid line is small and soft. Domi also needs a shooter to play with.
Fourth line has no identity. Lafferty is a grinder, Kampf is soft and defensive, Reaves is a fighter.
First pair doesn't work. Rielly/Brodie can't play together. Keefe did everything to keep them apart starting January of last year, I don't see that changing.
Second pair didn't work last year when they tried them together, maybe they try again but not confident.
Third pair, Gio is a horrible partner for Klingberg, he plays a fast game and Gio is slow, could defintely be a bottom 10 pairing in the league.
Sammy is a top 10 goalie, solid starter.
Woll should steal the net by the end of the season
Timmins is a solid #7 but needs games to develop.
Holmberg might be a better fit than Kampf at least his game matches Lafferty's (Obviously Leafs won't site Kampf at $2.4M, just talking about building the best lines).
Jones sure, I wouldn't carry 3 goalies personally.
