Assuming, we get 100% of the forwards coming back (who are coming back, so no bjork)....How would you make the lines?
Marchand / Bergy / Pasta
Nash / Krejci / ?? (Do you stick with Debrusk here or do you promote Donato?)
Debrusk or Donato (whichever one is not on line 2) / Reilly Nash / Backes
But then what do you do with Heinen and Gionta (who has impressed me), nether are line 4 guys....
Also, I think the following is a very solid 4th line:
Acciari / Kuraly / Wingels
So there are some odd men out. I would immediately say Schaller is an odd man out. Maybe Heinen too, as the hot rookie has cooled and becomes a depth casualty. But you have to fit Gionta in there somewhere. Especially with his experience and special teams contributions. Maybe you bench Acciari too (hate to bench the kid from PC), and you go with the following 12 forwards (in some type of combination):
Marchy, Bergy, Pasta, Rick Nash, Reilly Nash, Krejci, Donato, Debrusk, Backes, Gionta, Kuraly, Wingels. Let the rookie (Heinen) come back next year, as he's clearly hit a wall. (Still high on the kid long-term). Schaller is an easy bench (in my opinion). Acciari who is solid , but not much O becomes your 13th forward, a role he is probably suited for.
1) Do you agree with my top 12?
2) Who would you put w Krejci? Donato or Debrusk?
