Let's see what training will bring but I would try this to start

Goal-Suzie-Slaf
Armia-Dach-Laine
Newhook-Dvo-Roy
Gally-Evans-Andy

Armia finished the season strong, he would make the 2nd line pretty big with Armia at 6'2", Dach 6'4" and Laine at 6'5".

Someone else will get moved since Hughes clearly stated yesterday the Habs are over the cap at the moment and they don't want to put Price on LTIR before the season starts.

Who is the odd man out? I think Dvo is the guy susceptible to be moved.

I think if Dvorak is sent packing, on top of the cap space created, this balances the lines a lot better.


Goal-Suzie-Slaf
Roy-Dach-Laine
Armia- Newhook-Gally
Pez/whatever-Evans-Andy

Willing to give that Armia- Newhook-Gally a second look, based on the small sample size from the end of last year.

Armia and Roy might be interchangeable.

Also, I suspect the Habs like Anderson with Dach, so that will be interesting to see how they balance out the lines.

Agreed, guys like Eminem might push Pezz out. Ideally they find a home for Gally and Andy but I doubt it will be possible

No promises.

Best forward hands down. Can’t wait to see if he plays with suzi and the giant or with Dach

I could see Andy bouncing back with dach and possibly Laine.

Yeah, that would be a big boy line, for sure.

I do not think Gally is going anywhere, regardless of health or contract.

I think Slaf had some good chemistry with Dach, too.

So I can see a little fluidity in that top 6, which could be fun... but I think Laine starts the season with Dach on the second line.

Really interested to see what the PP looks like.

It would be best if he played with Dach imo. Should Dach return to form and stay healthy, this could potentially be a scary dangerous top six to play against.

Slaf with dach and Laine would also be a big boys line and a dangerous one.

Just him bouncing back to a 20-25 goal, tough to play against pace would improve the team significantly. I think the Habs will surprise many this year. But, it's all dependant on them staying relatively healthy.

Both Philip Broberg and Dylan Holloway have been informed they are St. Louis Blues. Oilers do not match.

Done deal.

Interesting.

What I love about this acquisition is that it frees up Caufield from the hard matchups. Both players will be scoring shiploads
