I am thinking Murray makes a big move to bring in a player. I am hoping we nab OReilly. If we get a proven talent via trade this team flirts with the post season. As the roster currently sits we are only one top six player from filling out(Eichel included) and a LD from
Filling out the defense. For how bad we are the roster actually looks solid this year

Line 1
Kane-Girgs-Ennis
Line 2
Moulson-Eichel-Reinhart
Line 3
Foligno-Grigs-Gionta
Line 4
Des-Larsson-Kaleta

Defensive

Zads-Risto
Gorges-Bogosian
McCabe-Pysyk


I like the idea of letting Reinhart play as a winger to relieve pressure of playing in the NHL but still getting him minutes with the club. Kind of shelter him.
In an ideal world he starts in Roch. I want to press hard with Grigo this year. If he pans out this team moves ahead a full year in the rebuild. He has all the tools to be that last top 6 guy we need. Not opposed to moving him to wing. I haven't been this excited in years. I think we struggle early but manage to finish around .500

Interesting. I could see a number of combos for the forwards. I think McCabe will start in Rochester and Weber will be in his place. I can see Reinhart and Gio being swapped too.

Reinhart can just as easily be in Roch with McCabe. I like that we haw flexibility for the first time in a long time. And having Gio with Eich makes sense in the early going. Be a mentor for the kid.

I like that idea of Eich with the two vets on the second line. What about moving Larsson up to third line center and Grigo to wing? In Roch, the two of them were pretty good with possessing the puck in the O zone and cycling it around. Then, bring in Matt Ellis for the 4th line center because he's Matt f-ing Ellis.

What. A. Freaking. Day.

Got Lehner and Legwand, then O'Riley and McGinn, AND Eichel was drafted.

Sooo... WHAT ARE THE LINES GOING TO LOOK LIKE?!?!?

I love what has happened this past year. Something tells me we aren't done making moves. I am saying we offer sheet someone.

As for lineups...I literally have no idea why Disco Dan is going to do. I really liked the Reinhart and Eich combo during the tournament but we may never see that outside of PP. Everything I have read on McGinn makes me want him on a third line. He plays up to who he is linemates with. I just want Larrson to be our Jochen Hecht on the third line. If he plays like he did at the end of the year and Lehner plays well no reason this team can't make the post season.

Line 1-
Kane-O'Reilly- Ennis
Moulson-Eichel-Girgensons
McGinn-Larrson-Reinhart
Foligno-Legwand-Gionta

The last time we had 3 lines stacked with guys who can pot 20 goals minimum a year was 06/07. The difference is that this team also has a lot of grit and will smack you in the fucking mouth.
