Before anything is settled, I'd like to watch a few line sprints. These are my chemistry from the ether pairings I gotta see to believe, or unbelieve.
10) Saarela-Toews-Kane You can put just about any monkey in this slot....but the right monkey? Well..that might be just about having the right tool to maximize glory.
9) Cat-Strome-Dach Well...the risk in taking a look here is it might actually work, and work...well.
8) Saad-Kampf-Shaw The liklihood of these guys ending up getting a look on #3 is high.
7) Cat-Strome-Kane Cat played opposite Kane at the worlds, and so its a question likely to be asked internally at some point. Might as well look at it in pre-season.
6) Jewels-Toews-Shaw I wonder.
5) Saad-Dach-Smith The best wingers early in Dach's career, imo. A couple of veterans with versatile games, together they can get work done and allow him to flow to roles that suit his strengths.
4) Kubalik-Toews-Dach Toews has played well with an enforcer before. If this line had special chemistry it would open up many lethal possibilities in the bottom 9. For that reason I would be curious what it looked like.
3) Jewels-Dach-Nylander IDK
2) Dach-Kampf-Shaw
1) Kubalik-Toews-Kane This is another howitzer to drop into the spaces and wait. Saarela can probably do the job, but its Kubalik who might astonish. If he can continue to beat goalies like he did in Switzerland, the Bread Man wound might heal. 24 years old, he is ready for the spotlight.
My gut for first 9
Kubalik-Toews-Kane
Cat-Strome-Perlini
Jewels-Smith-Dach
Saad-Kampf-Shaw
