Pretty sure that'd be our first line.

Ideally, Caufield is on our second.
lol fine. Our 2nd line will be our first line last year that was pretty dominant even with an underperforming Caufield and a 19 year old nowhere near his prime.

EITHER WAY haha

It's funny a lot of us have the perception that Cole underperformed when he set a career high in goals and points. But I get the reason we have that point of view because before he got hurt a season ago, he was on pace for 46 goals. So the expectation was that he'd at least pot 35. So scoring 28 and not even hitting the 30-goal mark is considered underperforming.

I could’ve put it in quotation marks but I think he can be a lot better.

Demidov will adore playing with Laine, he is an insane passer.

Laine - Dach - Demidov

Jesus christ.

It's going to be interesting to see where the chemistry is, who is best with who, and if all 6 of those top six players play well and stay healthy, will we be able to keep them all due to the cap.

Some combos I could see being optimal:

Caufield - Suzuki - Slaf
Laine - Dach - Demidov

Laine - Suzuki - Demidov
Caufield - Dach - Slaf

Laine - Suzuki - Slaf
Caufield - Dach - Demidov

Caufield - Suzuki - Demidov
Laine - Dach - Slaf

We could even see the two shooters, Caufield and Laine, on a line together. Erik Cole and Paccioretty had a good line even with Desharnais as their center. They each scored 35.

Demidov - Suzuki - Slaf
Caufield - Dach - Laine

Caufield - Suzuki - Laine
Demidov - Dach - Slaf
