Now my lines would look like this providing Schroeder got the call

Sedins-Kassian

Raymond-Schroeder-Burrows

Higgins-Lapierre-Hansen

Weise-Manny-Volpatti

When Healthy my lines would be

Sedins-Kassian or burrows

Schroeder-Kesler-Burrows

Higgins-Lapierre-Hansen

Booth-Manny-Raymond/weise

A balanced a nd skilled offence

What do u guys think and what would u do?

Current:

Daniel - Henrik - Kassian

Raymond - Schroeder - Burrows

Higgins - Lappierre - Hansen

Volpatti - Malhtora - Weise

Ebbett

When Healthy:

Daniel - Henrik - Burrows

Booth - Kesler - Kassian

Higgins - Schroeder - Hansen

Malhotra - Lappierre - Weise

Raymond, Ebbett

(Possibly put Lappierre in back in the 3rdC spot if JS can't handle it but I would give him the chance 1st)

Don't like Schroeder with Raymond and Burr. Too small, and would be pushed around.

Here's what I would go with:

Sedins-Burrows

Raymond-Schroeder-Kassian

Higgins-Lappy-Hansen

Volpatti-Malhotra-Weise

Kass gives the second line size. Raymond doesn't give them that (he's the scorer); schroeder is the centre; kass is the physical presence. he can also score.

Sedin - Sedin - Burrows

Higgins - Schroeder - Kassian

Raymond - Lapierre - Hansen

Volpatti - Malhotra - Weise

Schroeder needs some size and grit surrounding him. Higgins and Kassian can provide the puck protection. Raymond's good enough defensively to hold his own on a checking line and Lapierre/Hansen can still bring enough grit to that line.

I'm going to mix it up and say, when healthy:

Sedin - Sedin - Kesler

Booth - Schroeder - Kassian

Higgins - Lapierre - Hansen

Volpatti - Malholtra - Weise

ex. Raymond

That's right, Raymond gets benched - shocker! But seriously, I think we should try Kesler on the Sedin's wing. His most productive season was when he was utilized with them on the PP. Kesler can of course still take draws, and be used in the PK as well. I just don't see the chemistry with Kesler and anyone else.

But I guess if we want to keep him as 2C then:

Sedin - Sedin - Kassian

Booth - Kesler - Burrows

Higgins - Schroeder - Hansen

Volpatti - Malholtra - Weise

ex. Raymond

I don't see how this is too difficult. You switch Ebett out and Schroeder in. Simple as that.

And for the post above, putting Kesler with the Twins just ruins the purpose of having secondary scoring. Might as well have the 2nd line, just lay down and let the opposing team score.

Current:

Sedin - Sedin - Kassian

Higgins - Lapierre - Burrows

Raymond - Schroeder - Hansen

Weise - Malhotra - Volpatti

Healthy:

Sedin - Sedin - Kassian

Burrows - Kesler - Booth

Hansen - Schroeder - Raymond

Higgins - Malhotra - Lapierre

I like the idea of keeping similar players together. Our 2nd line are all essentially identical player types, 3rd line are all speedy and 4th line are all good grinders. Maybe scratch Malhotra if he doesn't play well and slot Weise in who's been amazing for us so far.

I'd drop raymond to the 3rd line or even 4th

Sedin-Sedin-Kassian

Higgins-Schroeder-Burrows (Good veteran presence to support Schroder)

Weise/Raymond-Lapierre-Hansen

Weise-Raymond-Manny-Volpatti

When Healthy :

Sedin-Sedin-Burrows

Booth-Kesler-Kassian

Higgins-Lapierre-Hansen

Weise-Manny-Volpatti
