[Theoretical] Create A Lineup Without


Kack Zassian

Recommended Posts

Lets say the following players all got hurt last night and were out until playoffs

Henrik, Daniel, Kesler, Booth, Burrows, Higgins

Edler, Hamhuis, Bieksa, Ballard

So minus our top 6 forwards and our top 4 d-men (yes Salo is the only healthy one, I know)

How would you setup your roster?

*Ignoring waivers and callup rule

Hansen Schroeder Raymond

Reinprecht Pahlsson Mancari

Bitz. Lapierre Kassian

Duco Malhotra Weise

Rome Salo

Gragnani Tanev

Alberts Connauton

I would go with a youth movement

FORWARDS

Zack Kassian ($0.870m) / Maxim Lapierre ($1.000m) / Jannik Hansen ($1.350m)

Mason Raymond ($2.550m) / Jordan Schroeder ($1.025m) / Anton Rodin ($0.900m)

Manny Malhotra ($2.500m) / Samuel Pahlsson ($2.650m) / Nicklas Jensen ($0.925m)

Dale Weise ($0.605m) / Steven Reinprecht ($2.050m) / Byron Bitz ($0.700m)

DEFENSEMEN

Sami Salo ($2.000m) / Marc-Andre Gragnani ($0.550m)

Chris Tanev ($0.900m) / Kevin Connauton ($0.900m)

Aaron Rome ($0.750m) / Andrew Alberts ($1.225m)

GOALTENDERS

Roberto Luongo ($5.333m) / Cory Schneider ($0.900m)

Raymond-Schroeder-Kassian

(best chance for a top line, a passer, a shooter, and a powerforward)

Sweatt-Lapierre-Rodin

(all three are defensively sound, and Lappy has shown some offensive tools)

Hansen-Pahlsson-Bitz

(Could be a good shutdown line, used heavily against the opponent's top line)

Weise-Malhotra-Duco

(rough and tumble fourth, high compete level here)

Alberts-Salo

(I guess it's a shutdown pairing, but Alberts would be scary to trust playing that many minutes)

Connauton-Tanev

(was a great pairing for the Wolves this season. Hopefully K-Conn's ready for the show)

Gragnani-Rome

(Reliable 3rd pairing, with some offense)

Luongo

Schneider
