Why not Kane or Sherwood?

Of all the options to put beside Pettersson-Garland, DOC wouldn’t have made my top 5
And why is Lekkerimaki scratched?
I getting the feeling that OConnor has hands of stone
Bsk line 😎
Needing Drew O’Connor to wake up EP40. It’s over.
Sherwood dominates in bottom 6 against bottom 6 players. Don’t change that.
O’Connor brings some speed to the line which is nice.
Petey needs some sort of catalyst and brock clearly ain’t it right now.
In theory, O’Connor could work. He’s one of the fastest guys on the team, so he’s likely F1 puck retriever. But I don’t know how good his hockey sense is in a top 6 role. Will see…
With Garland and Petey, you definitely need some weight on that line.
O’Connor’s been largely useless his whole time here but it could work if you tell him he needs to always be the first one in grinding one out for petey
Edit: A REAL high IQ coach would put Sassons/Karlsson there 👀
Names? We don’t all have their numbers memorized
Curious to see DOC getting deployed here with Petey. I would’ve had kept Kane there to see what they could accomplish (they had good advanced stats in the St. Louis game). However, I would like to see Debrusk with Pettersson and Sherwood again. They had a good stretch when Miller went on his personal leave of absense last season.
Hughes – Hronek
Petersson – Myers
D Petey – Mancini
Demko
Taken directly from Sat Shar’s playbook
During pre-season I felt like the forward lines were essentially a first line and three 3rd lines, which honestly wasn’t even meant as an insult, it spoke more to the apparent depth of good utility forwards, even if it wasn’t quite a typical deployment of personnel.
Now it feels to me like we have three 3rd lines and a 4th line. That is definitely meant as an insult. Kiefer Sherwood excepted, basically none of the forwards are playing even up to their potential, let alone above expectations, which is essentially what we were always going to need for this to be a successful season.
Let’s uh… hope things change I guess?
I like the idea of EP40 working with a sniper, so I’d prefer to keep him and Boes together plus Garland. That would be my ideal 1st line.
Also, not a fan of DeBrusk and Boeser playing together.
Omg. What are these lines. At least the AHL line is going to be good (I hope). I get that DOC and Garly are fast so hopefully that helps Petey. But Boeser and Debrusk together with Chytil? Why don’t we separate the 2 of them. Move Sherwood up there or something.
