Petterson is such a threat alone that he could be deployed alongside more supporting players such as a MacEwan, Gaudette etc. This would free up Miller and Boeser to present such a greater scoring threat for our other lines. Wouldn't it be great if Lind or Hoglander were ready? Thanks guys! be well , take care, we are all loved. Miller - Petterson - MacEwan Miller - Petterson - Boeser Pearson - Horvat - Virtanen Pearson - Horvat - Virtanen Roussel - Gaudette - Boeser Roussel - Gaudette - MacEwan Motte - Beagle - Sutter Motte - Beagle - Sutter Eriksson Eriksson Edler - Myers Hughes - Myers Hughes - Schmidt Edler - Schmidt Juolevi - UFA/Trade Juolevi - UFA Benn Benn Demko/Holtby That's a good point. Petey can make threats out of anyone. Kind of like Crosby with rust or guentzel or sheary etc. I still like the 6 40 9 line together but just for kicks..

Could maybe even turn that 3rd line into a more offensive line if Ferland was healthy AND if MacEwen could play centre. Pettersson-Horvat-Virtanen Miller-Gaudette-Boeser Pearson-MacEwen-Ferland. (or, Pearson-Sutter-MacEwen) Roussel-Beagle-Motte Sutter = 13th forward; him and Ferland alternative in the line-up as part of a load management strategy. Eriksson gets sent to the minors. I’d probably still be more inclined to do the ‘stack’ idea if I was going to entertain this sort of thing however, but have Pearson on the Gaudette’s left side instead of Virtanen (give the line a more defensive element while giving the line another left handed shooter). Miller-Horvat-Pettersson /Edler-Schmidt (think: 2011 Sedins’/Burrows/Erhoff/Edler dominance) Pearson-Gaudette-Boeser / Hughes-Myers. Hughes being on this pairing would open things up offensively Roussel-Sutter-Virtanen / Juolevi-Benn. Not the greatest offensively, but this line would still have a chance of producing offense. Motte-Beagle-MacEwen Demko Holtby Eriksson to the minors if Ferland is healthy. Ferland and Sutter alternate games as part of a load management strategy. Three line balance: The line-up below is probably the closest to ‘being balanced’ that I can think of. Roussel-Pettersson-Boeser (Ferland as LW) Miller-Gaudette-Virtanen (Sutter as C) Pearson-Horvat-Eriksson Motte-Beagle-MacEwen Sutter to the minors or Ferland on LTIR. If Ferland is done, then Sutter becomes the 13th forward and alternates with Gaudette as part of a load management strategy. If Ferland can play, then Sutter goes to the minors and Ferland alternates with Roussel as part of a load management strategy).

NorthWestNuck Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 How we likely start: Miller - Pettersson - Virtanen Pearson - Horvat - Boeser Roussel - Gaudette - Sutter Motte - Beagle - MacEwan Eriksson, Ferlund (LTR) How I’d like to Start: Miller - Pettersson - Virtanen Hoglander - Horvat - Boeser Pearson - Sutter - Eriksson Motte - Beagle - Hawrlyuk MacEwan, Ferlund (LTR), Roussel Move Gaudette for a young defensive Center prospect with PK1 upside to replace Sutter/Beagle in the near future. Costmar/Karlsson could change this but that’s my opinion for the present. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaudette has gotten better each year offensively and defensively give him one more year to develope he wil be a plus player 35 to 45 points this year.

But long term I don’t think he has a place on this team. If Benning and Green think he can develop into elite or at least solid two way Center that’s fine, but With Petey and Bo on the top two lines, the top two centres are set long term, so either Gaudette needs to become a top PKer, or moved for a top PKer in the same age range.

DIR you may just be onto something there....would be interesting to try out. Turns out third line into a shut down one, and the thing I like the most is it gives Horvat the wingers he deserves. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanleyCupOneDay Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 I think it’ll largely depend on who makes the jump from a prospect to the NHL. Without knowing that it’s tough to figure how things shake out. Ideally we’d want all 4 lines to be balanced with a shooter, a set up guy and a grinder/puck retriever, but to varying levels with at least one guy on each line who has defensive capabilities so as not to get caught too much. Of course this is reality not the ideal world, so it’s unlikely to happen. Imo we definitely need to not do 1 line for each need (offense, defense, grinders, new guys), though obviously the 2nd line is more defensively skilled then any of the others because of their toughest matchup, so like I said, varying levels. Going to be exciting to see who makes it up for a chance or career from our talented prospect pool at the start and throughout the season! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoKnows Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 My guess is Benn slides down to become our 7th defence man, and Chatfield/Rafferty get to see some ice time at the NHL level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigTramFan Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 (edited) I would go with a 20-man roster, with extra players on the taxi squad "papered down" so that we can save $1.075m of cap on the higher paid players... Miller Pettersson Boeser Pearson Horvat Virtanen Roussel Gaudette Ferland Motte Beagle MacEwen Hughes Schmidt Edler Myers Juolevi Rutta (signed for $700k to add vet presence on 3RD) Holtby, Demko The above roster gives us $2.15m in cap space, so helps to cover bonuses from 2020/21 and is just enough room to bring in 2 players from the taxi squad if required, before needing to put anyone on LTIR. Taxi squad extras: Sutter, Eriksson, Baer, Hawryluk Benn, Rafferty, Brisebois Kielly Hopefully there is an AHL season so that our young guys can get experience and game time to develop rather than being on the taxi squad...

Bad_BOI_pete Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 (edited) Miller Pettersson Boeser first line, stick with what works. Pearson Horvat Sutter we will have a improved 2nd line with sutter providing more than LE. Hoglander Gaudette Virtanen Hoglander is Ready , he will work hard in the corners and feed gaudette and virtanen. Motte Beagle Ferland the energy line is all dependent on ferlands health, He's a heck of a player when Healthy. Roussel He's in the doghouse after the playoffs. Edler Schmidt edler and schmidt will compliment each other. they will play most of thier time against the elite Hughes Myers hughes and myers played well together last year Rafferty Benn/UFA shelter these boys. Yikes, I Really Hope aquaman will spare a dime. Rafferty is more ready than joulevi UFA Holtby, Demko PP1 Pettersson Horvat Boeser Miller Hughes PP2 Ferland Gaudette Virtanen Edler/Schmidt Myers/Schmidt PK1 Beagle Pearson Edler Schmidt PK2 Sutter Motte Myers Benn Edited December 3, 2020 by Petey_BOI spacing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vannuck59 Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 I think the NHL will allow 26 man rosters instead of the normal 23 , thus giving each team more flexibility with the condensed schedule and allowing a 5 % cap overrun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iggynucks Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Assuming Ferland begins the year on the IR, Baertschi doesn’t make the team and there are no surprise prospects to make the team out of camp, this is what I’d like to see: Miller Pettersson Boeser Pearson Horvat Gaudette Roussel Sutter Virtanen Motte Beagle MacKewan Hughes Schmidt Edler Rafferty Juolevi Myers Holtby Demko Scratches: Hawryluk Baertschi Eriksson Benn IR: Ferland Call ups: Lind Rathbone Not sure what the total number of roster spots allowed will be or if there will be a taxi squad this season due to Covid but that’s a lot of salary either scratched or in the minors. Yikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vannuck59 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Two trades first and a signing Trade one : Virtanen and Baertschi to Ottawa for Gaborik (put him on IR) Trade two : Pearson to Vegas for Pacioretty (This gets Vegas under the cap) Signing : J. Rutta Right D for $700,000 Miller Pettersson Boeser Pacioretty Horvat Sutter / Bailey / MacEwen Ferland Gaudette Bailey / Sutter Motte Beagle MacEwen / Sutter Hughes Myers Edler Schmidt Juolevi Rutta Holtby Demko Scratches: Hawryluk, Rafferty, Benn Utica :Eriksson, Roussel Cap works out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
